22 weeks til my 34th birthday and it will soon be a year since I published my memoir. I'm making the occasion by fundraising for (iCan) mental health. My goal? To walk every week with different people. Hoping to smash the 100 barrier (100 different people) by my birthday 19th of September. Walks will be short-ish and leisurely.
