The Mill - A Tale From Crosshollow

This narrative from the Crosshollow series tells the story of a young man named Tam who seeks to establish his own identity by securing a position at a local grain mill. During his trial under the seasoned miller Garrick, Tam initially fails because his anxiety and overthinking disrupt his natural movements. Through the patient guidance of his mentor, who redirects him toward simple tasks, the young man eventually learns to quiet his mind and trust his physical intuition. The fable serves as a modern lesson on how self-doubt can hinder existing skills and highlights the importance of finding a steady rhythm in life. Ultimately, the source illustrates that mastery often requires stepping out of one's own way to let innate ability take over. The podcast has an accompanying Blog:  The Mill - A Tale From Crosshollow
