When Tris Dyson lost the use of his thumb in 2022, he had no idea it was the first sign of motor neurone disease (ALS). Just 44 years old, newly engaged, and a new father, his world shifted overnight. But instead of slowing down, Tris leaned into his life’s work—fueling global scientific breakthroughs through prize-driven innovation.

In this episode, Tris shares how he’s turning a devastating diagnosis into a mission to spark the next major medical breakthrough. As the managing director behind the $10 million dollar Longitude Prize for ALS, he’s channeling urgency, optimism, and innovation into solving one of the most brutal neurological diseases on the planet. This conversation is about resilience, purpose, and why Tris still believes the clock can be beaten.

This week on the podcast, I’m joined by Abbey Fickley—a sober mom, public speaker, and advocate who shares her powerful journey through addiction, recovery, and motherhood. Abbey opens up about her first experience with heroin while in sober living, the emotional toll of postpartum anxiety, and the moment her father pressed felony charges that ultimately saved her life. We talk about rebuilding after relapse, setting boundaries, the pressures of being a “sober influencer” online, how she grew as an influencer and much more! Abbey also reflects on her decision to stop sharing her daughter Myla publicly, choosing to protect their peace over internet fame. Through vulnerability and honesty, Abbey sheds light on the complex road to healing and the strength it takes to reclaim your story. This conversation is raw, inspiring, and a must-listen for anyone navigating recovery or supporting a loved one who is.

This week on Live Life in Motion, I sit down with Kathryn Sauser — a sober curious lifestyle coach and founder of the SoberFitGirl community. Kathryn shares her powerful story of transformation, from struggling behind the scenes with addiction and eating disorders to becoming a leader in the wellness space.

In 2020, after hitting a breaking point, she made the life-changing decision to get sober and move to Bali. There, she began opening up about her journey online — and her honesty quickly resonated with thousands of women around the world.

Today, Kathryn helps women break free from unhealthy habits by focusing on both mental and physical wellness. Her coaching method is rooted in fitness, sobriety, mindset, and self-love — not shame or restriction. In our conversation, she talks about the importance of vulnerability, the strength that comes from community, and how living in alignment has changed her life.

This week on Live Life in Motion, I’m joined by Giacomo Campus, owner of Sole Espresso Bar in Greenville, SC. Originally from a small town outside of Milan, Giacomo came to the U.S. as a teenager through tennis. Years later, he decided to bring a taste of Italy to Greenville by starting Sole Espresso—first as a mobile espresso cart and now a newly opened brick-and-mortar café. The coffee beans are sourced straight from Italy, and his mission is simple: serve great espresso the Italian way. We talk about his journey, Italian culture, and what it takes to turn a dream into a small business.
