In this episode of The State I Am In, I sit down with Bridgett Watkins — Alaskan musher, ER nurse, wife, mother, and author of Marker to Marker. Bridgett takes us deep into her journey from childhood races in Fairbanks to surviving a brutal moose attack just weeks before her first Iditarod. We talk about grit, faith, and family — how she balanced chasing dreams with the realities of motherhood, and how failure 50 miles from the finish line fueled her return to the trail. From long training runs in Alaska’s backcountry to her motivation to press through fear that carried her through setbacks, Bridgett’s story is one of resilience and relentless pursuit of a dream.

Whether you’re a parent, athlete, or anyone chasing a goal, this conversation will leave you inspired to keep moving forward one step at a time, and marker to marker.
