Domestic goddess Emily Leonard leaves the comforts of her home to thru-hike the Appalachian Trail. Having never spent the night in the woods alone, she is in for a life-changing journey. Spending the last 25 years taking care of the house and kids while her husband, Bruce, took care of the finances, she was ready to do something for herself. The six-month journey and 2,189.2 miles of wilderness would give her more than she expected. Life lessons, faith encounters, highs and lows, and even romance were just some of the gifts the trail gave her. Be ready to laugh and cry from Georgia to Maine as you hike with Emily on her trek through fourteen states, more than five million steps through the woods, across rivers, and over mountains.
