Episode 5 | The Leaving

  • Summary

  • In this gripping episode, Brooke Lark takes us deep into the Colorado wilderness where a promised healing journey becomes the catalyst for her own liberation. When her husband invites her to join him on the Colorado Trail, claiming transformation and newfound clarity, Brooke packs her bags with hope and sixty-five pounds of gear, ready to walk into their better future together.

    But as the days unfold in the high country, familiar patterns emerge between the mountain peaks. Through vivid storytelling, Brooke reveals how a 250-mile hiking adventure becomes a powerful metaphor for her marriage – each step illuminating the exhausting dance of attempting to love someone well by making herself small. Until finally, in a frost-kissed morning beside swampland, she receives an unexpected invitation to leave that becomes her permission to stay gone.
