Dustin's Kaleidoscope

Leadership Lessons from Walking Every Day for Over 5 Years


Listen Later

Over five years. Every single day. Rain, snow, holidays and long workdays—Dustin never missed a walk. What began as a way to cope with the COVID shutdowns became a life-shaping practice that redefined her leadership and resilience.

In this episode of Dustin’s Kaleidoscope, host Dustin Dumas reflects on the surprising lessons she’s learned from walking daily for over five years—and how they apply to leadership, identity, and consistency.

She shares three powerful insights:

  1. Progress doesn’t need to be loud — small, consistent steps compound into transformation.

  2. You can be tired and still show up — discipline is about commitment, not perfection.

  3. Time alone is a leadership tool — clarity doesn’t happen in chaos, it happens in quiet.

This isn’t just about walking—it’s about the power of showing up for yourself every single day.


- What’s the one thing you could do daily that would change how you see yourself?
