There’s a moment in the Rockies when my whole body settles, like I finally remember how to breathe again. In this post, I’m sharing why so many women can’t rest unless the structure is built for them, why I prescribe “lying down appointments,” and how the mountains have become the place where I come home to myself.

I share the story of traveling to Zurich, Switzerland for a women’s retreat with Dr. Jordan Robertson and Alyssa Olenick, expecting blue skies and sweeping mountain views, only to be met with rain, fog, and snow. Instead of letting disappointment take over, I leaned into resilience, connection, and the unexpected magic that happens when women come together in community.
