Trust the Journey – with Pattie Baker

Guest - Pattie Baker

AN UNINTENTIONAL ADVOCATE FOR STRANGERS. SUSTAINABILITY. COMMUNITY GARDENS. BIKING. COMMUNITY ART. AND MUCH MORE.

You must listen to Stories Connect People guest, Pattie Baker.  She talks all about how she is making the world a better place! She is a difference maker!  Pattie who is traveling at the speed of bike became an advocate for sustainability, community gardening, people, biking, community arts without ever intending to do so.

Many of her adventures come from biking.  "When you start out you go somewhere to ride. The more you ride; you ride to go somewhere."  She is riding to experience! She is experiencing her community, her city, people, art and nature.  

Hear Pattie’s passion for connecting with people, with strangers and she does so in such a present, intentional, engaging way. Pattie doesn’t just take time if she meets a stranger, she makes time for it in her life - she talks to them, gets to know them, sometimes photographs them. 

Pattie is an advocate, a multi-time author, photographer, blogger and Peace Corps Uganda invitee, waiting for her departure date.  

Notable Quotes:

“Trust the journey”

“If the path and the pace aren't right. It's not a joy-based journey”

“When you start out you go somewhere to ride. The more you ride; you ride to go somewhere."

“Do the next right thing”. There are a lot of steps forward that we can take that don't require money or time or permission.  To help us get closer to our own goals.

“Biking is the way to access humanity”

Advice – “Lead with kindness”
