Walking for His Mother — A Camino Journey of Love, Healing & Peace

He came to walk for his mother.To light a candle.To carry love across the Camino.In this episode of Wisdom of the Way, I sit with Pablo, a pilgrim from Ecuador walking the Camino de Santiago with a simple and beautiful intention: to arrive in Santiago and light a candle for his mother, who has been going through a difficult time.What unfolds is a tender conversation about love, solitude, healing, and the quiet peace that can come when we stop rushing and allow life to meet us more deeply.Pablo shares about his relationship with his mother, his years of moving between Ecuador, Italy and France, his love for music, and a past chapter of alcohol, drugs and darkness that one day, mysteriously, seemed to fall away.“Since that day, I always say life is a gift. Because I really feel it. I am able to breathe, to see, to hear. And that is enough.”Together we speak about walking alone, sleeping outside, screaming into the open landscape, forgiving oneself, and the strange grace that can come when we stop escaping our own heart.For Pablo, the Camino has become a place of honesty — a place where there is nowhere to hide, and where old pain can slowly begin to soften.This is a conversation about simplicity, tenderness, self-forgiveness, and the quiet miracle of being alive.May Pablo’s story remind you that the path does not always need to be rushed. Sometimes the deepest gifts come when we slow down enough to receive them.---------To learn more about Camino retreats, online practice, and the Wisdom of the Way newsletter:www.wisdomoftheway.comInstagram: @wisdomoftheway_
