In this episode of Running to Myself, Trisha shares a heartfelt story from her granddaughter’s school Veteran’s Day program and the surprising mindset shift that came with seeing the same moment from two completely different roles.

As a former teacher, Veteran’s Day assemblies once meant schedule disruptions, logistical juggling, and trying to redirect energized students back into learning. But attending the very same type of program now as a grandparent brought an entirely different emotional experience: gratitude, pride, and the tender weight of watching multiple generations of veterans be honored.

This contrast became a powerful reminder that perspective shapes experience… and two different truths can exist at the same time.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

And what might open up if you allowed their experience to be true, too?
