Cutting Tethers
by Anna Elisabeth Soule
I was done.
I was so done.
At 49 years old, already a mother and grandmother, I screamed into the universe.
And It responded.
”Trust the path.”
And so I left.
Spurred on by a will to find life again, the confidence of my daughter, and the help of 98 strangers, I took off on foot from New York City to Miami. Between a harrowing near-miss on the highway, living in chronic dehydration, and run-ins with drug dealers, I also encountered the goodness of strangers who welcomed me into their homes, an operatic serenade especially for me, and the curiosity of women who needed to know what happens when you allow your dreams to come back to life.
This book, the first in a five-part series, chronicles the growing pains and revelations from the first leg of my journey from New York City to Washington D.C.
