“Now that I’m not always trying to get there, I can ... enjoy being here.”
Season 2 // Episode 6
It’s easy to measure our achievements based on what other people are doing. But how do you know what you should really expect from yourself?
This episode takes us from a mountain in Arkansas to an attempted thru-hike on the Appalachian Trail and explores how much better life can be when you realize your shortcomings might not be your fault.
Christine Reed has the story.
