From the Travis Macy Show - Ep. 166 of the Travis Macy Show with Kari Loya: Playing Offense in the Alzheimer’s Journey and Living Fully with Human Connection and Outdoor Movement

I’m excited to share a special episode with you from
The Travis Macy Show. Travis recently sat down with
Kari Loya for a conversation that will leave you reflecting on
your relationship with your father and children. 


Kari is the author of the book Conversations Across
America which is about  a 73-day, 4,600-mile
cross-country bike trip Kari took in 2015 with his 75-year-old
dad, Merv, who had early-stage Alzheimer’s. 


As I was editing this episode for Travis’ show I found myself
reflecting about my dad, some of the many adventures we have had
together, and how fragile that all felt last summer when he was
diagnosed with cancer again


There is a moment at the end of Kari and Travis’ chat that
just about killed me. I’m reminded how lucky I am to have the
relationship with my dad (truly with both my parents) that I
have, and if you are lucky enough to feel the same - I hope this
conversation moves those same feelings in you. 


Please be sure to check out the Travis Macy Show
for more inspiring conversations like this one - and also grab
a copy of Kari’s book!
