Episode 220: A Trip of a Lifetime

We're back! After an absence of six weeks, Janine and Shannon are happy to be back at our microphones! This week we're discussing Shannon's trip of a lifetime, her 217-mile walk along the Camino de Santiago. In the episode we learn all about her amazing trip, including how perfectionism sometimes reared its head.

Discussion topics include:

• Shannon's daily routine while she was walking the Camino

• The details of Shannon's solo trip (she walked 217 miles in 18 days!)

• How Shannon shared the images and memories of the trip each day

• How perfectionism got in the way of her keeping a sketch journal of the trip

• The after-the-fact sketch journal she's now creating

• How this really was a "trip of a lifetime"

• Finding accommodations the night before vs planning multiple days at once

• How it can feel like more pressure to get it right when you're traveling alone

• Shannon's "finish line" experience at the end of the walk
