Episode Synopsis


What do you do when you’ve lost everything? At twenty-six, shattered by her mother’s death and the collapse of her marriage, Cheryl Strayed was at rock bottom. With nothing left to lose, she made a rash, impulsive decision: to hike more than a thousand miles of the Pacific Crest Trail. Alone. With no experience and an overloaded pack, she embarked on a journey that would push her to her limits. Wild is the unforgettable, raw, and witty story of a woman trekking through the wilderness and her own grief to ultimately find her way back to herself.
