Listen "episode_67 // anything but normal"
Episode Synopsis
Our family definitely wears 99 hats and works tirelessly toward the goal of getting to the top in the shark tank we call motorsport.
But often we question the impact of giving up 'normal' for Ellis as a teenager. Our life would certainly look very different if we hadn't pursued this path, and while we wouldn't give it up for the world, I empathize with Ellis for wanting more independence, daily routine, and friendships.
*******
TheWholeStory is a podcast about my family’s journey to follow Ellis’s singular passion for racing during a global pandemic. The episodes are audio recordings of the journal I’ve been keeping since the day we left home in 2020.
Shamelessly authentic and always with a sense of humor, I hope this story gives you a look behind the sheen of social media-- the shiny posts about racing, travel, and of course, eating, and sheds light on what it's really like to be a family taking risks and living life on the road.
