Kate's story ​(hometown: Eugene, Oregon)

These times seem custom designed to make me feel afraid - for friends, family members, neighbors… The best way I know to shift out of fear and into a new paradigm is to put myself in motion. As a newly certified yoga instructor, I have come to deeply appreciate the power of breath and body. As a religious professional, I have come to deeply appreciate the power of compassion and faith. As a spiritual pilgrim (I have undertaken pilgrimage as part of my spiritual practice), I believe in the power of “walking the talk.” I want to put these values into motion, moving at human speed across our beautiful country and connecting with the land and the people we meet along the way. I know that transformation arises when we put love into action, and that is why I walk.
