Anda Unscripted
At 40, my life took a drastic turn. This is my unfiltered account of navigating the uncertainty of a career change, divorce, and a cross-country move back to where it all began. Let's prove it's okay to start over, again. Join me, Anda, an author, former park ranger, and breast cancer survivor, as I share insights from my adventures and embrace the unknown in a beautiful, chaotic world.
“I must write it all out, at any cost. Writing is thinking. It is more than living, for it is being conscious of living.”

Yosemite Plant Walk
In the middle of summer, I met in Yosemite Valley with other Parks people to celebrate Pride with Pattie Gonia. It was a fabulous experience to meet others who hold the same values and I do while working in Public Lands. During this experience, we broke off into small groups to focus on something wellness related. My group was a plant walk hosted by a member of resources that focused on botany.
