Growth isn’t found at the summit but in the surrender required to reach it. When we answer the call, cross the threshold, and face what we’ve avoided, we return home not just stronger, but more whole.

Growth doesn’t come from holding it all together. It comes from having the courage to admit when you can’t.

The most experienced guides in the Dolomites don’t point to tactics as their deepest lessons, they point to respect, empathy, and patience with people. Growth isn’t about conquering terrain; it’s about how we navigate it together.
