Yup, I teared up halfway into the video. I recently joined Substack and will share my first post this week. Substack is kind of my 'wildhood' in ONE way. I started horseback riding two months ago—a dream come true. I'm unsure how I came across your page, but I'm glad I did. Thank you for taking the leap, Kristi. Love your writing too.

Hi Christie!!! I'm glad you stopped by to cry at my newsletter 😁 The name of your Substack basically has the same meaning as mine....we're all on some kind of quest. Welcome to the Stack and I hope you have an awesome journey here!

PS: I had a horse when I was a teenager. Some of the best years of my life were spent on the back of a horse ♥

Love this!! YES!! 🙌

“It’s about squeezing in your cardio by running from adult responsibilities once in a while and living as though you don’t have a care in the world, even if you do.”

I knew sooner or later somebody would resonate with that part 😊

Just checked out the video Kristi. Certainly provokes "throat lumping" thought. Why is it so easy to think and see, yet so hard to do? Life gets way too much in the way. Good morning and good thoughts to start the day.

It IS hard to do! I've done it and it still didn't look like this. It's much more complicated 😕

This is great, Kristi! I wore chacos to my federal government job fairly regularly. They were my feet’s version of yoga pants

Mine was a government job too 😁 Amazing what we could get away with in those cubicles! I also wrote my travel blog on company time 😂

"...depending how you choose to define it. It’s up to you to live your life according to whatever brings you comfort, joy.." -- I align so much with this. That's what drives my work too!

Oh my god, that video! And wildhood, what a fabulous word.

Great one, my fellow nomader.

Doesn't that video punch right in the gut??

Thank you and welcome to the 'hood 😊

I love your featured images. Which AI tool do you use to create them? Firefly? :D

Thank you Kristina! So far I only use Canva Pro for images. But not all are AI generated. 90% are ready-made graphics Canva has in stock.

Fantastic post - loved the video!

Isn't it a great little story in that video?

It's fantastic! I love that line "you are out there' - it's perfect. For me though wild comes through being home on the farm, sharing that with the birds and animals that shelter here with me. I have a beautiful patch of very old trees that I get to share space with. It's magical.

That sounds wonderful!

That's the coolest thing about our individual wildhoods...it can be whatever we want it to be!

I love this line!!! ...”It’s about squeezing in your cardio by running from adult responsibilities...” The direction of your newsletter is really coming together.

Expand full comment

Same!! That line stood out to me as well! Made me smile while inviting me to stop living for the “shoulds” of life and instead listen to the desires of my soul. 💖

Thank you so much Elle 😊 I really appreciate you saying that and joining in the journey!
