5 parts Ongoing After six years of taking care of everyone else, Emily no longer knows who she is.
At eighteen, Emily gave up her future to care for her sister Julie, who was battling cancer, and Julie's two young daughters. Emily became a surrogate mother, a caretaker, the steady presence the family needed. Then Julie went into remission, recovered, and needed something Emily hadn't expected - Julie needed her sister to let go. Julie needed to reclaim her life, to be a mother to her daughter's again, to pick up the pieces of her life before her illness.
Suddenly Emily found herself without a purpose, lost without the survival mode she had been in the last six years, unsure of who she was if she wasn't taking care of other people. She moved apartments, moved towns, and struggled to figure out who she was now, who she wanted to be. Then one day she happened upon a book about the Appalachian Trail, and it sparked a wild, crazy idea.
With nothing to lose, Emily sets out to hike the Appalachian Trail, hoping the vast endlessness of the wilderness will help her rediscover who she once was - and the woman she's meant to become. As she journey's through the rugged mountain trails, however, she soon realizes she might not just find herself on this trail... she might also find love.
