So inspiring Kristi! I would love to do something like this, but it's so hard to figure out how to step off the treadmill- you've showed me how it can be done with (a lot) of courage!

Loving your expansive and present words. These particularly stuck with me. Can't wait to read more Kristi musings.

"Little did I know that what I was actually looking for on this journey wasn’t something new outside of myself, but learning how to say goodbye to what I needlessly carried."
