🎙️ It’s #moxiemonday and our final episode of season 4 is now live. Please help us welcome our guest, Tracy Hayhurst! 🥕 🥦 Tracy whips up moxie every time she steps into her kitchen. A Ballymaloe-educated chef, organic farmer, and food educator, she is passionate about mixing those ingredients to create meaningful experiences for people through her new adventure, Undermountain Pantry Cooking School and Microbakery. Tracy is a creative local food systems entrepreneur evolving her work by owning and managing CSAs for Chubby Bunny and Husky Meadows Farms, coordinating education and outreach for Plantin’ Seeds, and serving as culinary director at Seed and Spoon. All those endeavors fed into her mission to design seasonal, fun, and educational culinary workshops and meals at Undermountain Pantry. Tracy’s jam is helping people become attached to local and seasonal food, building community through sharing delicious, nutritious food, and helping her students develop culinary skills to take back into their home kitchens and make some moxie of their own.

🎙️ Our newest episode of Main Street Moxie is now live! Please welcome Mimi Madden and Susan Wheeler to the airwaves! 🎙️ What do you get when you combine two moxie-fueled individuals? Moxie synergy that’s off the charts! Mimi Madden and Susan Wheeler are the driving forces behind Good News Girls, a social collective for women over 50 in northwest Connecticut. The Good News Girls started as a musing in an English pub after a long ramble in the countryside. It has evolved into a dynamic and active organization, providing enrichment and social opportunities during a phase of a woman’s life that is marked by significant change. Menopause, changes in relationship status, retirement, grown children, and aging parents can add to isolation, loneliness, and a need for connection. Enter the Good News Girls with hikes, book groups, retreats, and learning-centered dinners, creating opportunities for friendship and positivity. They prove that it’s never too late to make changes in your life! This episode is proudly sponsored by Main Street Magazine.

🦈 On June 20, 1975 "Jaws" first premiered. Based on the book written by Peter Benchley, the movie took the world by storm. Last year we were able to sit down with Peter's brother Nat and discuss his brother, their family, "Jaws" and Peter's preservation efforts. 🦈 🎧 Listen to the full interview anywhere you listen to podcasts or here 👉👉 www.mainstreetmoxie.press #mainstreetmoxie #jaws50thanniversary #jaws #podcast #moxiepodcast #listennow
🎙️ Happy #moxiemonday and the kick off of season 4! Our first episode of 2025 is all about HAPPINESS and our very own Mary O’Neill is doing double duty as guest and co-host! Please welcome Mary! 😎 Happiness is a moxie job! To kick off the 4th Moxie season, Mary O’Neill, co-creator and co-host of Main Street Moxie, explores the connection between happiness and moxie. Happiness is a topic on which Mary is well-versed. She has immersed herself in the topic through the lens of multiple disciplines, and it underpins her work as an educator and life design and career coach. For Mary, rainbows and unicorns do not signify a happy life. Instead, she draws on the Ancient Greek philosophy’s emphasis on living a life of virtue and values. A happy life is one lived in alignment with qualities such as courage, moderation, honesty, humility, integrity, and, most crucially, practical wisdom, which involves knowing how and when to apply various virtues in the situations we encounter.
