Meaning and Moxie After 50

Join us as we lace up our boots with Julie Brucher, whose journey from Northern Wisconsin to the legendary Camino de Santiago and the challenging Appalachian Trail offers inspiration and grit. Julie, a spirited adventurer, shares her stories of resilience and the universal camaraderie found in communal meals and shared trails. Her narrative is a testament to the power of perseverance and the joy of unexpected friendships that transcend language and cultural barriers.
Julie also invites us into her world of wildlife encounters and solo hikes through the Appalachian wilderness. The quiet rustle of nature, from curious bears to the eerie harmony of coyotes, paints a vivid picture of the trail's challenges and beauty.
Balancing personal adventures and family commitments is no small feat, but Julie shows us it’s possible with preparation and flexibility. Her reflections serve as a gentle reminder that the perfect time to pursue dreams is often now, regardless of age.
