Each month, I’m sharing a chapter or concept from my upcoming book, “Cycling Shorts: Everything I Need to Know I Learned While Riding My Bike.” This month explores what happens when Mother Nature has other plans for your ride. Back in my teens and...

I recently got an email from my Mum, who mentioned my Dad had gotten out in his kayak. That same week, my sister video chatted from Florida. She was having lunch with a colleague who lived on the water. They surprised her, giving her a boat ride to a restaurant...

Instinct. Intuition. Gut feelings. Or God? Sometimes it’s hard to tell where that inner knowing comes from. All I know is, it’s always there. Quiet. Steady. Waiting for me to tune in. Lori, remember that time in your 20s when you were dealing with...

There are weeks at work when the deadlines pile up, the meetings feel endless, and I start wondering if I’m in the right place. (Or even on the right planet.) But then something small shifts: a teammate says, “This was a fun week!” Another reminds me to tuck a kind...

I learned to ride a bike as a kid, like most of us do, knees scuffed, wobbling, fearless. But learning to really ride? That came later. On a road bike. With clipless pedals. With my husband, Jim, as my teacher. It was our first real ride together. He’d adjusted the...

The caterpillar doesn’t become a butterfly without struggle — and neither do we. Growth comes from the struggle. If you’ve been with me this year, you’ve likely noticed a shift in my writing. A new rhythm, a deeper truth. It’s more real now. More raw. More honest....

What does my soul want me to know? You’re okay. You’re safe. You’re seen. And while you may not feel entirely fulfilled, you are empowered. That’s the heartbeat of my first book, Come Back Strong. It wasn’t just about returning from a setback. It was...

There’s a certain magic that happens on the bike when everything clicks: my breath, my cadence, my rhythm. I’m not struggling. I’m not pushing. I’m just moving. Fluid. Focused. Free. That’s what athletes call “flow.” For me, it’s where presence meets power. But...

There’s a softness in me that I used to struggle with. A deep-feeling, heart-wide-open softness that shows up in the form of tears, often at the most inopportune moments. For much of my life, I viewed this trait as a liability. A flaw I needed to hide or outgrow....
