Fear, Flow, and Finding Yourself with Lindsey Richter of Ladies All Ride
Lately, life’s felt all over the place — uncertain, busy, pulled in a dozen directions. Honestly? A little scary. But some words from Lindsey Richter, founder of Ladies All Ride, have been echoing in my head and grounding me, both on and off the bike.
🎧 Listen to our full conversation below or wherever you get your podcasts.
Facing Fear & Trusting Yourself
There’s a lot in life that can make us pause or pull back. Lindsey’s story is a reminder that fear doesn’t have to be a dead end. From growing up as an athlete, to jumping into reality TV, to eventually carving out her own lane with Ladies All Ride — she’s navigated her share of twists and rocky terrain.
“You took a risk. You took a leap.”
The way she relates what happens on the bike to everything else in life just hits. Tackling obstacles, trusting your gut, getting back up after you wipe out…it’s all practice for the bigger stuff.
It’s All Connected
What we learn in one area shows up in others. The small moments of resilience on the trail spill over into how we handle tough conversations, career shifts, and the messy middle of life. Growth doesn’t happen in tidy little boxes — it happens in the overlap, the intersections, the places we least expect.
“Perfection shouldn’t even be a word.”
And maybe the most freeing part? Realizing it’s okay to celebrate the process, not just the finish line.
“Celebrate the ups and the downs.”
