Goodbye for Now (But Not Goodbye Forever)

After an incredible run of the Mad Rush podcast, Trisha Addicks is pressing pause—for now. In this heartfelt episode, Trisha shares an update with the Mad Rush community and explains why she’s stepping away from the podcast while she focuses on an exciting new chapter: the upcoming release of her highly anticipated book, The Rush Bible. For years, Mad Rush has been a space where Trisha pulled back the curtain on sorority recruitment, college transitions, and the powerful connections that shape young women’s lives. Through candid conversations with guests from inside and outside the Greek world, the show explored everything from identity and confidence to mentorship, friendship, and finding the right community. In this special episode, Trisha reflects on some of her favorite moments from the podcast, and, most of all, she shares her gratitude for the incredible community that formed around it—the listeners, parents, students, mentors, and families who made the Mad Rush journey so meaningful. While the podcast is pausing, this is far from the end. Trisha is now turning her full attention to The Rush Bible, a comprehensive guide to navigating sorority recruitment and the college transition with confidence. She’ll be traveling for book events, signings, and appearances—and she hopes to meet many of you in person and hear your rush stories along the way. Mad Rush may be taking a break, but the mission continues. Stay connected, stay confident, and keep building meaningful connections.
