Autism Changemakers Podcast
What happens when you remove yourself from the usual patterns?
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, we step into the transformative experience of walking the Camino de Santiago—not as a romanticized pilgrimage, but as a raw journey of self-discovery, nervous system healing, and collective support.
We explore:
- How changing your environment uncovers patterns, perspectives, and truths you can’t access when you stay put
- Why movement and walking in nature provide insights that sitting still cannot
- The reality of burnout for caregivers, and how intentional distance can be a catalyst for deep healing
- What becomes possible when you step away from daily roles, silence the noise, and finally create space to process who you really are
Curious about the power of discomfort, community, and connection? Listen in as Sara Intonato and Lisa share practical lessons and vulnerable stories from their multiple journeys on the Camino—and invite listeners to reimagine what restoration and fulfillment could look like outside of their usual patterns.
