Overview

Turns Out, Healing's a Hike is a memoir written as a trail journal, recorded while still on the path, not after reaching the summit. This book follows a thru-hike of sorts. Not a scenic one, and not a clean one. It moves through different terrain, seasons, and weather, and pays attention to what shows up when you stay in something long enough for it to get real. Nothing here is written from hindsight neatly intact. This is lived experience, mid-stride. Some days healing looks like steady progress and strength in your body. Other days it looks like slowing right down, setting up camp earlier than planned, or stopping altogether because that's what your nervous system needs. There are stretches that feel familiar and quiet, and others that are steep, uncomfortable, and harder to move through than expected. All of it still counts as part of the hike. This is not a self-help book. There are no steps to follow, no lessons wrapped up with a bow, and no promises about what healing should look like. Instead, this book offers honest reflections, trail letters, pause points, and moments of sitting with what is, without rushing to fix it. Written through the lens of lived experience, trauma, foster care, motherhood, and learning how to regulate and stay present, Turns Out, Healing's a Hike is for anyone who is tired of being told they should be further along by now. If you want to hike beside me for a while, to move at your own pace, to set up camp when you need to, to sit by the campfire and rest for a bit, and to keep going when you're ready, you're welcome to.
