85. Climbing a Mountain

Rebecca is flying solo today with something that’s been on her heart and mind for a long time. In February, Rebecca and her family went on a trip to Arizona for a breather, some warm weather, and a chance to connect with family. And maybe an energy vortex. You know. While there, she and her husband and three children went on a hike up Cathedral Rock and she found so many parallels between that amazing hike and doing big things in small towns.   In this episode, we cover: How we’re often sold an idea of what something will look like, but the real journey and learning process is nearly always different.  The fact that no one on the journey themselves is going to criticize you for being there, too.  The importance of taking things one step at a time.   Links + Resources Mentioned More about Cathedral Rock: http://www.arizonahikersguide.com/all-hikes/hike-cathedral-rock-trail-sedona   Don’t forget to follow along with the Growing Small Towns journey on IG: https://www.instagram.com/growingsmalltowns/   And Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/growingsmalltowns   Subscribe + Review Thanks for tuning into this week’s episode of The Growing Small Towns Show!
