Journey on trails

My journey on trails started in 2017 when a friend reached out to me if I would like to hike over weekends, and without a thought, I said “would love to”. All I needed was a trail pal. We hiked every weekend, we were loving every bit of it. Every hike I felt an awe, a magical connection with mother nature and was connecting with myself in a way that I never had before. I felt refreshed and energized after each hike and was ready to take on coming week's personal and professional challenges.

We shared our experiences on social media, and slowly friends, and their friends started joining. Without knowing we were inspiring fellow women and building a community, today it's a private Facebook community of 450+ women across silicon valley. This journey has empowered many along the way, made fitness fun, and many founded a solace and much needed support system.
