51 - Nagela Ampudia - a story of courage, vulnerability, transformation, and triumph

04/06/22 • 98 min

Nagela Ampudia first came to my attention after reading her posts on the Camigas Facebook Group. Her posts were raw, real and so intriguing to me. I’ve been following her journey ever since and our schedules finally matched up for a chat. I have such deep affection for Nagela. She’s a great storyteller, a precious pilgrim, with tremendous courage in being vulnerable and authentic. In this interview, you will hear about her walk on The Camino Frances, the many challenges she faced and overcame, and the transition back to her life afterward. I hope you enjoy meeting Nagela as much as I did! Thanks, Nagela, for coming to The Camino Cafe! The interview is also available on our YouTube Channel.

52 - Recovery Camino - a 12 Step Camino

I was so glad to hear about this 12 Step approach for walking the Camino. In this interview, we discuss how walking the Camino gave founders, Mark Lane-Holbert and Bob Shea, the idea to start a Camino specially designed for anyone currently in any type of 12 Step Program or anyone supporting someone in a program. We also discuss their upcoming Recovery Caminos happening this May and September. There's still room in both groups, so if you know of anyone that may be interested, please feel free to share this information. They also run a virtual Recovery Camino on Camino for Good. Thanks to Mark and Bob for so generously leading this important effort for the Camino Community! Recovery Camino
