Colorado is one of those places that sinks into you. I grew up surrounded by mountains, blue sky, and so many little pockets of nature that it was impossible not to fall in love with being outside. I spent a lot of my childhood exploring trails, watching storms roll over the foothills, and learning to appreciate the feeling of space and freedom that open landscapes give you. Colorado shaped my sense of calm, my love for movement, and the way I reconnect with myself when life feels too full.
