STORY OF THE MONTH<br />
“HOW TO FIND YOURSELF”<br />
On page 132, we ride beside<br />
316 women to discover what it<br />
takes to compete in a nine-day<br />
off-road race in the Moroccan<br />
Sahara. Below, WH advisor<br />
Manisha Thakor reveals her most<br />
daring moment—and what she<br />
learned by taking that risk.<br />
“After I got divorced, I needed to reboot my<br />
life in a new location. Through my own mini<br />
version of Eat Pray Love, I spent six weeks<br />
testing places from Boulder to Barcelona.<br />
Portland, Oregon, won, and I moved there<br />
without knowing a single person. I learned<br />
that having a chance to start fresh at age<br />
46 is both terrifying and exhilarating; that<br />
the brain, soul, and heart have an amazing<br />
capacity to learn and heal at any age;<br />
and that one can make some amazing new<br />
friends in yoga and Spinning classes!”<br />
