In 2012, Margaret and her husband Tom walked the Camino de Santiago (The Way of St. James), a 500 mile path through northern Spain that pilgrims have traveled since the year 1000. She experienced the Camino as a metaphor for life, with many life lessons that presented themselves along the way. Walking in the footsteps of all those who traveled this road before her was a challenging, humbling, and gratifying experience that she will never forget. Listen to how her Camino journey continues to inform her life today, and how the art of pilgrimage is open to all of us, even if we never travel far from home. Discover the spiritual benefits of walking as you journal and walk the labyrinth, pondering your own life as a pilgrimage
