Episode is about the greater metaphor of climbing mountains that is presented beautifully in the video game Celeste. I delve into powerful moments in the game where the character Madeline goes through touch challenges to help her grow and work through her anxiety, self love and why she behaves the way she does. I also go through personal experience on why I connected with the story and my own mountains to climb.
