How a 33-Day Journey Through Nature Taught Me to Slow Down, Trust My Gut, and Find Balance in Life (Part II)

Wake Up and Pay Attention

Nature has this incredible way of reflecting back on what we need to see if we’re willing to slow down and listen.

In this episode, I take you with me on a leg of my 33-day journey through the breathtaking landscapes of Sequoia, Kings Canyon, and Yosemite National Parks. But this isn't just a travel story—it's about what these towering trees, sweeping vistas, and quiet moments taught me about presence, intuition, and finding balance in life.

You'll hear about my connection to El Capitan (or “the Chief”) and how it helped me reflect on my own journey and connect to something bigger. We’ll talk about why slowing down, embracing spontaneity, and showing up fully are so important—not just on the trail, but in our everyday lives. I’ll also take you through some meaningful conversations with fellow travelers and how they reminded me of the power of connection and curiosity.

I believe life is always teaching us—if we’re willing to pay attention. Whether you’re navigating your own transitions, looking for clarity, or just need a reminder to slow down and trust your intuition, this episode is for you.

Let’s wake up and pay attention together.
