16. What 5 Days In A Treehouse Showed Me

Unapologetically Wild with Mary Giordano

🎙️ Episode 16: What Five Days in a Treehouse Showed Me

Sometimes the most important thing you can do… is pause.

In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on a chapter that’s been anything but easy.

After months of living in a low-grade state of survival - navigating Phoebe’s health, abandoning my routines, and feeling completely disconnected from myself, I finally stepped away.

Five days in a luxury treehouse tucked into the Colorado mountains gave me the breathing room I didn’t even know I needed.

This wasn’t a trip to “reset” or come back with a 20-step morning routine. It was a return to presence. To myself. To stillness.

Inside this episode:

• Why even the tools you know work fall away in survival mode

• The cost of constantly being “on” - even for someone who teaches this work

• What burnout really looks like (hint: it’s not always obvious)

• How five quiet days in nature helped me shift back into my body and remember who I am

• What I’m rebuilding now, and how I’m doing it differently

If you’ve felt disconnected, overwhelmed, or like your world’s gotten small lately, this one’s for you.

And, you don’t need a luxury treehouse in the mountains to feel like yourself again.

But you do need space, whatever that looks like for you.
