In memory of a small but mighty fall of learning, slowing, and growing… 

Hip reconstruction this fall forced an unknown stillness. No pushing through or pretending — just four weeks of no walking and a long road to recovery. Pain still shows in unexpected ways and moments, but it’s teaching me to listen. So many lows make the simplest of moments a high. 

I wouldn’t choose to skip this lesson, though. Out of it has come patience, gratitude, and a new found appreciation for walks (I’ve never walked so much in my life, hah!). 

To my body: thank you for your strength, for adapting, for teaching me you know more than I could imagine, and for every step forward with your newly given hardware. You are truly powerful! 

Thanks to you all who reached out with support, and to my mama, padre, Grace, Tommy, Bodhi, @salomonfreeski and so many more who held my hand through this. My sincerest apologies for being such a rascal, though that won’t change much ever. 

Lessons learned and cherished, snow welcome and encouraged. Do your thing, Ullr. I’m ready 😎
