The Mountain Mystic Podcast
Welcome to a new form of ascension path: an embodied spirituality that unfolds as we deepen into our present, lived experience for all that it is in these wild, often chaotic, often painful and challenging, yet infinitely beautiful lives lived as human beings. An embodied spirituality: one that demands that we know our very real, very alive world here on planet earth as we simultaneously learn to go within, know ourselves ever-more-deeply, and learn the discerning path of healing, of transformation, and of wild & deep fulfillment.
When I left my life as a Biomedical Researcher in pursuit of a path that could truly help heal the world, I didn't expect my greatest teacher to come in the form of Earth, herself. But that's what happened! Along with guidance from a diverse set of ancient wisdom traditions and some phenomenal modern teachers, I've been able to carve out my own path out of a modern industrial complex and, moment by moment, learn to choose what is healing and nurturing and joyful and fulfilling!
As a trail runner and rock climber, it is my bond with the great outdoors that taught me deep truths about our misalignment with Nature and our own selves. Here, may we step into conversation focused on re-alignment with our true nature. Through it, may we find a better path forward as we heal the deep wounds cut into all living systems.

Lessons from Running 100 miles [Joy and Achievement when living in alignment]
People call me crazy when I tell them that I am running another 100 miler next month! Yet, what I know to be crazy is living anything other than a path that fills me up with joy as I work hard for that which matters and brings true meaning to life! But how do we know that we are on a path that actually matters? How do we know that all of our planning and strategizing as we set goals and work hard towards achieving is actually going to bring forth the fulfillment that our hearts and souls are longing for!
Today on the podcast, I speak to my own wild journey away from what I had been taught was my high and mighty path to walk (that of a Biomedical Researcher) and how I have come to know when I am truly living a path that serves: that serves my own self as I receive joy and fulfillment; and, as I help transform the lives of others!
It's my own wild ride over here as an ultrarunner preparing to run my next big event and continuously reflecting on the important lessons I am living and learning along the way: lessons which continue to guide me far beyond the playground that is trail running as they ripple out into all aspects of life.
