How do you live a more joyful, self-led and purposeful life?! This is what I have learned, and all of season 1's best insights stuffed into one episode. Step onto the yellow brick road to your truest self and find the courage to take bold imperfect actions towards your dreams... The journey might be rough at times, but the beauty of creating your own path is always worth the struggle.

The final episode of this 3 part series describe the transformation that can happen when we come home after months of living a completely different existence: one that's led by the heart and in full alignment with who we are. How do we go back to "real life" when we've changed so much? Do we even have to?

In the second part of this series, I tell you about how to avoid letting negative thoughts ruin a beautiful day, I share what happened when I stopped comparing myself to other hikers, how I learned to be in total acceptance of the suck and finally, the reason why we set goals (hint: it's not about the goal itself.)

When I came back from 6 months on the Pacific Crest Trail, everyone was asking about the life lessons I could share with them after such an epic adventure. Back then, I was too tired and overwhelmed to give a meaningful answer. But two years later, I've finally found the words to explain what thru-hiking taught me about leading a purposeful life.
