Walking Into Santiago: On Rest, Release, and Coming Home to Yourself
This is the one where Amy (https://myhealthylife.coach/) runs. In a giant blue poncho. Through a forest. In the rain. With absolute unbridled joy. And it is everything. In this final June episode, Amy and Karla wrap up their month on the Camino with the parts that are hardest to put into words — walking into the cathedral at Santiago, receiving communion with zero question of worthiness, laying collected objects down in the square and finally letting go, and then trying to come home and re-enter a life that somehow feels both familiar and completely different. They also get honest about the hardest part nobody warns you about: re-entry. The quiet grief of leaving a vulnerable, intentional, fully-present community and going back to litter boxes and unpaid bills. If you have ever come back from a retreat, a trip, a program, or any deeply transformative experience and thought, how do I keep this — this episode is your answer. And the closing reminder from Karla is one you will want to write down: you don't have to go to the Camino to go on a pilgrimage. You can start right outside your front door.
