Tim Buxton - The Miles Between Losing Home and Finding It

Tim Buxton - The Miles Between Losing Home and Finding It21 Aug53 min

In this episode, Trisha interviews Tim Buxton, founder of You Belong and a CQ Fellow who ran 100 miles across Iraqi Kurdistan, retracing a route that many of the refugee families he'd lived alongside once fled.

What happens in the body and mind when someone is pushed past everything they trained for? Tim takes Trisha inside the moment out on the course when his careful preparation stopped being enough, and the shift that let him keep moving anyway. And what does it actually feel like to reach a goal you've chased for years? Along the way, they explore the difference between cognitive and somatic memory, why our "why" needs recalibrating, and the small habits Tim calls his "one percenters" - the kind that build our capacity to connect across difference.

It's a conversation about what belonging costs, what it takes to keep going, and what's still there once you arrive.
