Season 3/Episode 2: Running Your Own Race at your Own Pace- Meet Denise Howard

Send us Fan MailOn Today's episode we are chatting with Executive Director of Girls on The Run of the Panhandle (GOTR-P), Denise Howard.GOTR is a research-based positive youth development non-profit serving all 50 states, and Canada. Despite having "run" in their name, this is FAR more than a running program, encouraging girls in grades 3-8 to be joyful, healthy and confident through their program that creatively incorporates running.Denise shares her journey from volunteer and parent to a GOTR girl, to board member, to eventual Executive Director.  Her journey, like most worthwhile journeys, did not come without challenges and set backs... but just like the title of this podcast, she "arrow-ed" on and was launched into a new amazing place where she is helping impact lives of girls throughout the Florida Panhandle.After listening, if you'd like to get involved- here are some helpful links:GOTRP is still accepting new sites to host a team and you can sign up here:https://www.pinwheel.us/siteapplication/signup/Fall25-Site-Reg?sid=9256ae6cd936461ebfd736c74c507c16&hosted=False**sites can list interested coaches within that site, or GOTRP can provide outside-background checked coachesFeeling called to coach a team?-  https://www.gotrpanhandle.org/coachInterested in volunteering?
