    The Hardest Part Is Keeping Going
    Jun 28 2026

    A trot through Riverside Nature Park.

    This week I've been thinking about momentum, self-doubt, and what happens after the excitement of starting something begins to fade. Along the way I reflect on life after Vermont, feeling stagnant, caring for myself during difficult weeks, and learning to make peace with moving forward instead of looking back.

    Sometimes the hardest part is to keep on going.

    The Hardest Part Is Getting Started
    Jun 20 2026

    Back in Vermont, an Australian friend and I spent months going on long nightly walks we called trots. We'd head out with no destination in mind and somehow end up walking for hours, getting lost in conversation.

    When I got back home to Scotland, I realised I'd lost the habit entirely.

    In this first episode of Trot Talks, I reflect on those walks, perfectionism, creativity, and why getting started is often the hardest part of all.
