In this powerful follow-up episode, host Wendy reconnects with Liz McHutcheon after Liz’s transformative 500-mile pilgrimage on the Camino de Santiago and Wendy’s own month of renewal in France. Liz shares how each step along the Camino stripped away layers of people-pleasing, pushed her to sit with her emotions, and deepened her trust in the journey—both on the trail and in life. From the kindness of strangers to the logistical challenges of navigating vegan meals and unpredictable weather, Liz reflects on the profound lessons of the Camino: “There’s no right way to do the Camino.” Wendy offers her own insights on the power of pattern interrupts, and how stepping away from our daily routines gives us the fresh eyes and higher perspective needed to make lasting change. Whether you’re preparing for your own Camino, curious about life on the trail, or seeking inspiration to say YES to your next big adventure, this episode will remind you that transformation begins with presence, trust, and a willingness to let go.
