Hi there!

I'm Traci Ruble, the enthusiastic soul who dreamed up this idea in 2014. Since then, I've traveled the world with two fold-up stools and a sign, listening to people across the USA and Europe. I hope you'll join us!

Sidewalk Talk has profoundly impacted my mental health, as I've gathered with my chapter of listeners week after week for many years. Being part of this movement means belonging to something bigger than me. I hope you will feel the same belonging from listening.

Welcome! Roll up your sleeves, start a chapter in your area, and make it your own. Together, we can create connections and foster compassion everywhere.
