What Happened to Our Summer Camp Spirit?

Summary

In this reflective audio post, I share how watching my children attend summer camp triggered a nostalgic realization about personal growth and learning.

I noticed that as adults, we lose the curiosity, exploration, and willingness to try new things that naturally characterizes childhood experiences like summer camp. This led me to wonder "what happens to us" when we reach adulthood, and what can we do about it.

For anyone feeling stuck or wanting more from life, love yourself enough to consider going on a retreat as a way to rediscover that summer camp spirit of exploration and growth. Intentional retreat experiences can help recapture the wonder, learning, and personal development that we naturally embraced as children.
