Mind, Miles & Medicine

Movement. Mindset. Meaning.

Mind, Miles & Medicine is a purpose-driven wellness movement built on the belief that movement can be medicine, especially during life’s hardest seasons. It exists at the intersection of physical endurance, mental resilience, and meaningful action — using intentional movement to process pain, build strength, and create impact beyond ourselves.

This platform was created to show that when life feels overwhelming, forward motion — even one small step — can be grounding, healing, and transformative.

 

Mind, Miles & Medicine is not about elite performance or perfection. It is about showing up honestly, moving with intention, and using that movement to support others.

At its core, this brand exists for people navigating grief, illness, caregiving, burnout, and emotional struggle — and for those who want their movement to stand for something bigger.

What Is Mind, Miles & Moms?

Mind, Miles & Moms is a flagship fundraising initiative under Mind, Miles & Medicine.

It is a for-profit fundraising campaign created to support families impacted by breast cancer, caregiving responsibilities, and emotional hardship — while also contributing to established national organizations advancing research, advocacy, and patient care.

The mission is personal.

This journey was inspired by my mom’s breast cancer diagnosis, my grandmother’s role as a caregiver, and the countless mothers who quietly carry families through unimaginable challenges. Mind, Miles & Moms is my way of honoring that strength through action.

Beginning January 1, I committed to running 100 miles every month — culminating in major endurance events — as a living symbol of resilience, consistency, and support.

How the Fundraising Works

Mind, Miles & Moms operates as a for-profit initiative, meaning funds are collected through Mind, Miles & Medicine LLC. Transparency and integrity are central to this mission.

Funds raised through this campaign are used to:

  • Support direct family needs related to breast cancer treatment and caregiving

  • Cover costs associated with organizing, documenting, and sustaining the initiative

  • Donate a portion of proceeds to established organizations, including:

    • Susan G. Komen

    • American Cancer Society / American Cancer Research organizations

This structure allows the mission to remain sustainable while still contributing meaningfully to larger cancer research and advocacy efforts.

The 100 Miles a Month Journey

The heart of Mind, Miles & Moms is the 100-mile-per-month movement challenge.

This commitment represents:

  • Consistency over perfection

  • Strength through repetition

  • Showing up even when it’s hard

Each mile is run with intention — often as a tribute mile, honoring mothers, caregivers, fighters, survivors, and loved ones whose stories deserve to be carried forward.

Impact

Support & Awareness

Mind, Miles & Medicine exists to bring visibility to the emotional and physical challenges surrounding breast cancer, caregiving, and mental health. Through movement-based participation and storytelling, we aim to create awareness that feels human, grounded, and action-oriented. Every shared mile helps open conversations and remind others they are not navigating these seasons alone.

Mindfulness

Movement is not just physical; it is mental and emotional. We promote mindfulness through intentional miles, reflection, and presence. Whether running, walking, or simply showing up, participants are encouraged to move with awareness, compassion, and respect for their own capacity. This space exists to support emotional well-being for mothers, caregivers, and anyone carrying invisible weight.

Fundraising

Mind, Miles & Medicine supports Mind, Miles & Moms, a fundraising initiative operated through Mind, Miles & Medicine LLC. Funds raised help support families impacted by breast cancer and caregiving responsibilities, while also contributing to established organizations such as Susan G. Komen and the American Cancer Society. Fundraising here is rooted in transparency, intention, and meaningful impact rather than urgency or pressure.

Community

Community is the foundation of this movement. We believe healing and resilience are strengthened when people move together, support one another, and create space for honest connection. Through small gatherings, shared miles, and ongoing participation, Mind, Miles & Medicine fosters an inclusive, non-competitive community where people are welcomed exactly as they are.

Education

Education is a key part of creating lasting impact. Mind, Miles & Medicine is committed to sharing accessible, thoughtful information around breast cancer awareness, mental health, caregiving, and the role movement can play in emotional resilience.

Through stories, resources, reflections, and lived experience, we aim to reduce stigma, encourage informed conversations, and empower individuals to better support themselves and others. Education here is not about overwhelm or expertise, but about understanding, empathy, and shared learning.
