  • Summary

  • What distinguishes a pilgrimage from everyday life?

    Did our long-ago ancestors suffer from burnout or purpose anxiety? And, if not, why?

    These are two main questions I’m exploring at the one month mark of being back in Scotland after my epic ancestral pilgrimage here (and in Ireland) last year.

    You’ll hear me muse about:

    • what being on pilgrimage means and whether we can practice it even if we can’t leave home;
    • connecting with our ancestral tapestries through food, language, song, and story;
    • what might be possible if we brought more wonder, magic, and vulnerability back to the small moments of life;
    • why I suspect our ancestors didn’t struggle with purpose anxiety;
    • if worrying about purpose is actually a way of seeking validation;
    • a basic definition of ‘integration’;

    … and more.

    Do you have ways of practicing pilgrimage (whether through travel or at home)? What is your way of being curious about the universe?

    I’d love to hear.

    Here’s to wonder and questions and the magic of aliveness,

    Kate
