À propos de ce contenu audio

Feeling tired, stressed, and not motivated to exercise?

You're in the right place. If you want a podcast to listen to while walking... hi! I'm your gal, with a walking workout that makes time fly and feels like taking a walk with a friend in your ear.

Whether you’re walking outside, on a treadmill, or on your walking pad at home, these episodes turn “ugh, I should move” into “yes, I can do this” so you get more energy, more motivation, and overall just feel better and healthier.

You’ll get a mix of walk types so it never feels the same every time:


• “GET STEPS IN” walks with simple tips and hacks (and intervals)

• STORY WALKS where I entertain you while you walk

• TRIVIA and FUN THEME WALKS for the days you just need a reason to move

I’m Helen M. Ryan, a former personal trainer who lost over 80 pounds naturally… and I still have days where I don’t want to do it either. As a business owner with ADHD and hypothyroidism, I know what “no energy” feels like. Blech.

That’s why I created this free walking podcast that helps you show up, get your steps the easy way, have a laugh, and then move on with your day.

This show is for you if you ever ask:

• How do I get motivated to exercise when I don’t feel like it?

• How do I work out when I have no energy?

• What’s a good quick walking workout for busy days?

• How do I fit exercise into a busy schedule?

• How do I stop procrastinating and just get moving?

    • Back on Track: 15-Minute Power Walk | Drift Happens | 57
      Feb 18 2026

      A 15-minute power walk that will reset your mind, mood, and momentum. Get about 1500 steps in along with a few laughs. It’s time to walk.

      This is a low-impact walking workout you can do at home or outside… a quick energy boost when drift happens and you want to get back on track.

      It's an anti-guilt trip. If you’ve “fallen off” the wagon… who cares? We aren’t starting over; we’re just stepping back in and picking up where we left off.

      You can do this walk indoors on a treadmill or walking pad, or outside (I’ll ring the bell at the halfway point so you don’t end up in the next zip code).

      We’ll play the “green light” game to spike your heart rate (with some sneaky intervals), and chat about how you create energy (and re-motivate yourself) by just moving your body.

      I also wander off into: how my cat Mango gets me out of bed in the morning (possibly involving his litter box), my accidental alternator expertise, something I’m very afraid of, Rolodex cards (do you know what those are?), how not “Break My Stride” and instead “Shake Your Groove Thing” on a “Manic Monday.”

      You’ll finish this walk with a “mental screenshot” and hopefully be in a better mood. Plus, I added a few OUTTAKES at the end that didn’t make it into the episode (shhhh).

      Follow so the next walk is waiting for you when the drift happens again.

      “Give me the beat, boys, and free my soul
      I wanna get lost in your rock ’n’ roll and drift away…”

    • Too Tired to Exercise? Feel Better in Just 10 Minutes Walk | 56
      Feb 10 2026

      Too exhausted to work out? This 10-minute low-impact walk gives you energy, clears some brain fog, and gets you around 1,000 steps... in less time than it takes to drink a coffee.

      It’s a quickie walk for days when you feel like a zombie but still want to do something (for your body and mental health).

      You can do this at home walk on a treadmill or walking pad, or outside.

      If you’re walking outside, there’s a bell at the halfway point so you know when to turn around… without having to think about it.

      While we walk we’ll energize with some easy breathing, glute squeezing (your own glutes), and I’ll give you tips to get your energy back super fast.

      You’ll feel more awake, maybe a little happier (yihaa!), and glad you moved, even on a day ya’ almost skipped it. And no beating yourself up. The "caffeine queen" says so.

      I also wander off into Hashimoto’s disease, 1000 cats, not drinking coffee until the age of 37, missing out the whole 80s cocaine craze, and Shakira (whenever, wherever).

      Tap follow so the next walk is waiting for you.

    • [Walk] 1-Mile At Home Walking Workout (80s Style) | 55
      Feb 3 2026

      Walk 1 mile in about 15 minutes while we time-travel back to the 80s for a fun blast of Gen X fitness nostalgia.

      You can do this at-home walking workout anywhere: March in your living room, hop on a treadmill or walking pad, or just take it outside. It’s the podcast to listen to while walking.

      Hit play if you want:

      • A quick 1-mile walk
      • Easy cardio at home that fits into your busy day
      • About 1500 steps
      • A fast way to improve your mood and shake off stress

      (Walking outside? There’s a bell at the halfway point so you know when to turn around!)

      Along the way, we chat about the best (and weirdest) 1980s fitness crazes, including:

      • Jane Fonda and her living-room workouts
      • Richard Simmons and all that oldies joy
      • Gin Miller and the rise of step aerobics (pun intended)
      • Jazzercise, Callanetics, and the whole “feel the burn” era
      • Suzanne Somers and the ThighMaster that had us all squeezing in our living rooms
      • The Crystal Light National Aerobics Championship

      Plus, my ADHD brain takes a few detours into: shin splints, unitards, Flashdance, Olivia Newton-John, the flat chest and flat booty goal, and that you should drink water (and not vodka) afterwards.
