In this short segment, author Alison Cochrun shares the impulsive decision to walk the Camino de Santiago during a period of depression and creative burnout. She describes the physical reality of the Portuguese coastal route, from the unexpected pain of a 22-mile first day to the simple, ritualistic beauty of just putting one foot in front of the other.
It is an honest look at why a standard vacation may not be enough to fix a creative slump. Alison explains how the physical effort of the trail helped her regain mental strength and why having time completely to herself was the most transformative part of the journey.
