About Us
Welcome to Marrying Your Passions
At Marrying Your Passions, we’re all about helping you make your passions, whatever they are, a part of your everyday life! We’re here to share real conversations, practical tips, and inspiring stories that help you discover new ways to connect – whether you’re married, dating, or single and figuring out what makes you tick.
What We’re About
Every episode of Marrying Your Passions, we dive into how people can live life more fully through their interests and connections. After more than 18 years of marriage, we’ve learned that sharing passions isn’t about giving up who you are – it’s about creating experiences that make your life (and everyone around you) so much richer, whether that’s with your partner, best friends, family, pets, or the awesome community you’re building.
Whether we’re swapping stories from our travels to 47 states and adventures across Europe, Africa, and the Caribbean (including epic RV and teardrop camping trips), talking about how running became Nathan’s morning obsession, sharing crazy underwater adventures from our latest dive, exploring National Parks (we’ve hit around 10 so far!), checking out breweries, distilleries, and wineries, wandering through museums and local mom and pop shops, always seeking out water to stare at, swim in, or dive under, gushing about life with our dog Peppermint Patty (she’s basically our third host at this point), or raving about amazing food discoveries, we’re always trying to inspire you to find fresh ways to engage with what you love.
We totally believe that life gets richer when you jump into new experiences and share them with others. We’re here to show you just how awesome it can be to marry your passions with meaningful connections – however those connections look in your world.

Meet Your Hosts
Alicia
Running a nonprofit taught Alicia how to bring people together around what matters most. She’s also a Google Maps Local Guide Level 7 (which is kind of a big deal!), so she’s basically become a wizard at finding and sharing the coolest hidden spots wherever they go – perfect for all those marathon adventures with Nathan. She’s got this amazing talent for finding the story in every adventure and the joy in every moment, whether she’s hunting down the best local eats in a new marathon city or sharing incredible underwater discoveries from their scuba diving trips. Alicia knows that the best experiences happen when you share them with people you care about.
Nathan
Nathan’s an elementary music teacher who gets how powerful shared experiences can be. Right now he’s chasing his dream of running a marathon in all 50 states with the 50 States Marathon Club – he’s knocked out 40 states so far, including qualifying for and crushing the Boston Marathon! He’s also a proud Marathon Maniac, which tells you everything you need to know about his commitment to the sport. His teacher heart and marathon runner grit show up in everything he does, whether he’s plotting the next race destination or exploring a new city after crossing that finish line with Alicia cheering him on.
