In this solo episode, I share how I rewrote my walking story – and how you can, too! What started as something I barely considered important has become one of my most grounding and joyful wellness practices. Along the way, I discovered how intentional walks can support your body, mind, mood, and so much more. I also explore my favorite types of walks – from blood sugar and morning walks to creativity and gratitude walks – and how just a few mindful minutes a day can lead to meaningful shifts in how you feel almost immediately.
