Jessie+FollowAfter Work, I Climb to Feel Human AgainAll day I sit in meetings, nodding through delays and decisions. At 6PM I change—literally. Out of the blazer, into the chalk bag. My hands find holds, my feet search for balance. For the first time all day, I feel like myself. At work, it can take months to know if you’re doing something right. But with bouldering, it’s instant: either you make it, or you fall. The clarity feels radical. The wall doesn’t care how productive I am—only how present. Some days I wonder if the person in office clothes is just a version of me on mute. But this—sweating on a route I can’t quite finish—is the version I trust more. #sport #climbing #freedomafterfive70Share
