Michaelle "Meesh" is one of my best friends. She has a disease called Cystic Fibrosis. Not familiar with CF? Basically, it damages the lungs and makes things like hiking, really hard. I'm going to hike in honor when she cant. Im so proud to participate in this Xtreme Hike Fundraiser hosted by the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. My goal is $2500 by the hike date in October 2024.

Currently Meesh lives with her husband on their farm in Washington. She's doing well after a double lung transplant and other surgeries. She continues to inspire me every day.

Follow my journey as I train for my 13-mile hike in Yosemite, recount memories shared with Meesh, CF education, empowerment topics, and information about my retreat fundraiser; Mountain Mama Empowerment Retreat for mompreneurs coming in Fall 2024.
