TRIGGER WARNING: This episode contains discussions on mental health, toxic relationships and emotional abuse. When Jodie Morton set off on Australia's National Trail, it wasn't just about the miles—it was about making a difference. What started as a ride to raise mental health awareness quickly turned into a journey of resilience, loss, and self-discovery.

Inspired by the memory of two loved ones lost to depression, Jodie launched Green, Gold, and Blues to bring attention to mental health in underserved areas. Even when drought forced her to abandon the Australian trail, she didn't stop. Instead, she took her mission to North America's Continental Divide Trail, driven by a belief that even the hardest paths can lead somewhere meaningful.

In this episode, you'll discover:

• Resilience in Action: Jodie's story is a reminder that, no matter how hard things get, there's strength to be found. Her journey may inspire you to find that extra push in your own challenges.
• A Red-Headed Mare & Unexpected Bond: Learn the unlikely story behind Jodie's partnership with Thelma, her half-saddlebred, half-quarter horse companion—and how Thelma became the horse of a lifetime.
• The Impact One Person Can Have: Through Green, Gold, and Blues, Jodie shows how one person's dedication can bring mental health awareness to places that need it most, turning personal pain into purpose.
• The Freeding in Letting Go: Jodie's decision to leave a toxic relationship is a powerful reminder that sometimes, the hardest choices bring the most freedom and growth.

This isn't just a story of adventure; it's an episode packed with insights on courage, healing, and the power of self-belief. If you've ever struggled with grief, tough decisions, or finding strength to keep going, Jodie's journey will inspire you to face your own path with resilience and hope.
