In her early forties, Chandi Wyant’s world implodes in the wake of a divorce and traumatic illness. Resolving to find a healthy way to heal, Chandi decides to walk forty days on Italy’s pilgrimage route, with a goal of arriving in Rome, rejuvenated in mind, body, and spirit.

Weakened by her recent illness and impeded by the onset of plantar fasciitis only days into her walk, Chandi’s finds her cherished goal is in jeopardy. Determined to persevere, she walks over the Apennines, through the valleys of Tuscany, and beside busy highways, learning to let her heart lead and finding sustenance from surprising sources.

As the walk progresses, Chandi’s emotional life heals even as the pain in her body escalates. But will the strength of her mind be enough to deliver herself on foot to Rome?

Return to Glow transports readers to a lesser-known Italy, and inspires with its profoundly spiritual and ruggedly adventuresome journey. Anyone who has longed to leave fixed expectations behind and follow their heart instead will find courage in Chandi's story.
