It all started with a question: "How do I support my corner of the world in a meaningful way to the best of my ability?". For Mary, it is sharing one batch of cookies at a time...and so many other acts of kindness. For Amanda, it is inviting women to one unforgettable retreat at a time...and sharing beautiful murals with the world. Food, travel, art all have the ability to transport us. We invite you into this rich discussion to open-heartedly embrace the present. Stories of adventure, altruism, and connection are weaved through as we discuss one's "journal of a pilgrim". May this episode support you in finding the joy in giving to yourself and this world that is craving your unique and priceless contributions.
