Things are gonna get a bit heavy here for a minute. On Mother's Day, after a few weeks of strangeness from my father in law (more strangeness than is normal for him)-- I find out that he's been in the hospital for weeks and didn't tell us, and that he's dying.


What was supposed to be a break for me alone at home in Germany while the boys made a trip to the States becomes a massive turning point in our season, the year, and our lives.

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.
