How did it change your life

:slight_smile: I miss this type f interplay. I know I am a changed person for all my hiking. Relaxed and less concerned with “stuff” for starters. I have downsized after each of my three hikes. Planning to go on another this summer after playing on the AT before Traildays. The trail is always there but the neat surprises are all the folks who you meet along the way. My faith in them is renewed each time I am out there. Hike on and Savor the Moments! :happy

My thru hike was the product of a several year process involving simplifying my lifestyle. This involved conducting a Simplicity Circle with a group of about 1 dozen folks over 10 weeks. Talking about your goals, the ideal lifestyle, and removing all obstacles to those goals. The thru-hike was the result. I had a job interview recently and was asked about how the hike changed me. I said that it didn’t really. One of the folks interviewing me said “I guess the changes took place before the hike”. Right on!

Can you elaborate on the Circle? This will be great for a class I’m designing on Simplicity
