A proposito di questo titolo

Feeling tired, stressed, and completely unmotivated? Welcome!


This walking podcast is for busy people who want to feel better without a complicated, time-sucking workout.


I'm your host, Helen M. Ryan. I lost over 80 pounds after I started walking. I'm a busy business owner (and former personal trainer) with ADHD, hypothyroidism, and family, so I know what it's like to be chronically tired.


The episodes are fun, conversational walks with a friend who understands that some days are a struggle, with some silly real life stories mixed in.

  • [Walk] Tap Into Your Inner Action Hero: 15-Minute Boredom Buster | 54
    Jan 20 2026

    A just under 15-minute brisk walk that inspires you to stop acting like an extra in your own life and start training for the lead role.

    Walking on the “hamster wheel” gets dull fast. If you’re bored with your routine, let’s steal some tricks from Hollywood. In this world, you aren’t just “exercising”… you’re training for the action scenes of your real life (even if your biggest stunt is sprinting through an airport).

    You can do this walk inside at home (treadmill, walking pad, marching in place) or outside. There’s a bell at the halfway point so you know when to turn around, and some background music to help you channel your inner John Wick.

    This steady-paced, low-impact walking workout wakes up your brain, burns some calories, gives you around 1,300 steps, and proves that you don’t need a movie contract to train like a badass… because you already rock the free world.

    I also wander off into stories about being a vegetarian who didn’t eat vegetables, climbing 300 temple steps in Chiang Mai, falling down the YouTube rabbit hole of John Wick, Jennifer Garner, and Brie Larson’s superhero training, and why hoisting your carry-on by yourself into the overhead bin is an underrated action-hero move.

    Tap Follow so your next walk is already waiting for you when you need it.

  • [Walk] Get Motivated: 15-Minute Calorie Burning Walk | 52
    Jan 13 2026

    Want to get about 1,400 steps in? Yeah, baby. Throw your low motivation out the window with this low-impact 15-minute walking workout that will “pump… you up.”

    It can be hard to get off the couch, but lace up anyway. Motivation doesn’t just show up… you have to make it. And today, we’re going to make it after all (if you’re old enough for that reference, you’re my kind of people).

    You can do this walk inside at home (treadmill, walking pad, marching in place) or outside.

    There’s a bell at the halfway point so you know when to turn around, plus background walking music and a couple of pushes to nudge that calorie after-burn.

    Yes, you can do something even on a low-motivation day. This short indoor/outdoor walking workout is great for burning a few extra calories, boosting your mood, and proving to yourself you didn’t quit on the whole day.

    I also wander off into stories about hauling ankle weights through an airport in the 80s (terrible idea), channeling Pretty Woman “Big Mistake” energy, almost missing a flight while in the restroom, and why bribing myself is my favorite motivation hack.

    Tap Follow so your next walk is already waiting for you when you need it.

  • [Walk] 80s Music Trivia Walking Workout - 15 Minutes | 51
    Jan 9 2026

    Get 1,500 steps in 15 minutes with this fun 80s music trivia walking workout you can do indoors or outside.

    If you grew up on mixtapes, MTV, and shoulder pads, come on down! We’ll "walk this way" to a steady beat while I dish out 80s music trivia and fun facts about your favorite songs and artists. We’ll have a totally awesome time… high-top sneakers or not.

    You can do this low-impact walking workout on a treadmill, a walking pad, or in the fresh air. If you’re walking outside, there’s a bell at the halfway point so you know when to turn around. (There’s background walking music, too!)

    Plus I have a few power intervals (optional) to keep you livin' on a prayer.

    This 15-minute walk is totally rad if you want a fun "walk at home" workout, a quick energy boost, or just a mental break with 80s nostalgia and a little company while you move.

    I somehow end up also talking about Flock of Seagulls hair, Walkman tape disasters, MTV videos, Walking in LA, and the famous singer who got fired from Dunkin' Donuts...

    Don’t forget to tap Follow so the next walk is waiting for you.
