In this lively, heartfelt, and laugh-out-loud episode, Jeana and Rachel sit down with award-winning sports journalist, podcast host, and soon-to-be author Sarah Spain to talk about the surprising ways movement, friendship, and connection intersect.


The episode kicks off with a personal exploration of how team sports—and even just trying something new—can help us build relationships, confidence, and community. That theme flows seamlessly into Sarah's story, from being a college athlete to becoming what she calls the "social chair" of her life, building a network that’s equal parts powerful and deeply personal.


They discuss:

  • How movement can create shared goals, belonging, and identity
  • The incredible true story behind Sarah’s debut book Runs in the Family (out June 3!)
  • Why women need to embrace shameless self-promotion (and how Sarah is channeling "Instagram carousel energy" to sell her book)
  • The delicate art of generous networking and what it means to give without expecting a return
  • The joy and meaning behind the parties Sarah throws—and what they teach us about gathering in a disconnected world


You’ll also hear what Jeana learned about sports from Sarah, what Rachel’s twins are up to, and why every episode should end with a compliment.


Whether you’re a sports fan or just a fan of friendship, this one will make you want to text someone just to say hi. And make sure to pre-order the book at https://tinyurl.com/RITFbook.
