From the Superstition Mountains to Yosemite’s towering cliffs, Emily shares how hiking helps her find spiritual connection and inner calm, even in the heart of Phoenix’s triple-digit summers. We explore her favorite trails—like Weaver’s Needle and the Wave Cave—plus her trail rituals and her mission to make the outdoors feel accessible, authentic, and intentional.
