This Morning Walk podcast invites you to experience the transformative power of a simple walk, now part of Blind Nil Audio from Executive Producers Chip and Joanna Gaines.

Join hosts Alex Elle and Libby DeLana as they share the lessons they’ve learned on their walking paths, both individually and together.

Alex - A New York Times BestSelling Author and writing coach living in DC with her husband and daughters - and Libby - a Creative Director based on both coasts with grown children - started This Morning Walk Podcast to reflect on the ways a daily walk keeps them grounded in their day-to-day lives. As Alex likes to say - “It’s deeper than walking. It’s about slowing down, looking up, and finding clarity in your daily life.” 

It’s a practice. A mindset. A way forward. And ultimately, it’s a new path.

    Walking in Personal Power with Rhonda Ross

    Walking in Personal Power with Rhonda Ross

    The inspiring Rhonda Ross joins Alex and Libby to discuss how she uses walking as a means to feel and identify emotions, which in turn promotes personal practice and intentional living. A multi-talented singer, songwriter, and personal power coach, this conversation uncovers the importance of emotional autonomy, and the subtle art of aligning our thoughts as a powerful act of self-care, which ultimately leads to community care. 
    Listeners of This Morning Walk can access her Crucial First Step micro-course at the following link to FEEL BETTER through the POWER of THOUGHT: https://rhondaross.ck.page/
    Rhonda Ross is an Emmy-Nominated Actress, Grammy-Nominated Songwriter and Motivational Singer who helps people FEEL BETTER through the POWER of THOUGHT.
    As the only child between Diana Ross and Motown founder, Berry Gordy, Rhonda is quick to acknowledge the luck she was born into having two of the world’s most influential people as her parents. However, partly as a result of comparing herself to them and their accomplishments, Rhonda felt constantly controlled by what other people expected of her and what they said to and about her. For years, she painfully struggled with insecurity, self-esteem and feelings of being unfulfilled.
    Finally, she embraced The Power of Thought and kindly released others from the burden of making her happy as she took the Crucial First Step to FEELING BETTER.
    You don't have to be born into a family of global icons to find yourself contending with the pressures of external expectations. So many of us struggle to feel better in the midst of our own tumultuous worlds.
    Now, through her invigorating music, inspiring keynotes, and impactful courses and workshops, Rhonda empowers others with tools and strategies to activate, implement and strengthen their emotional independence through the Power of Thought so they can feel better, no matter what life throws at them.

    Simple Gestures and Loving Kindness

    Simple Gestures and Loving Kindness

    At a time when the world feels unstable and shaky, Libby shares a profound moment with Alex during a recent walk where the simple act of acknowledging a passer-by made a big difference. What if your walking practice could transform not just your day, but someone else’s as well? The ripple effect of a simple smile, radiating kindness and connection in a world that often feels rushed and impersonal can have a reach that we’ll never fully know. Also, happy walking anniversary to Libby, who celebrates 12 years of her walking practice on November 3!
