Leaving Colorado has been more emotional than I expected.

There’s something about the mountains—the quiet, the scale, the way they force you to slow down—that creates space for clarity. Out there, surrounded by stillness, the noise fades. Titles, deadlines, and distractions lose their grip, and you’re left with perspective.

Colorado gave me more than views and fresh air. It gave me moments of realignment. Time to reflect on where I’ve been, what I’ve learned, and where I’m being called next. There’s a kind of enlightenment that only comes when you’re still enough to listen—to yourself, to God, to the direction unfolding ahead.

As I move on from this chapter, I’m carrying that peace and clarity with me. The mountains may be behind me, but the lessons remain.

Grateful for the season. Ready for what’s next. ⛰️
