   The Beginning of the Road

   Every story has a first step. For Christy Prosser, it began with a single question, what happens when we travel and see the world. In this opening episode of Miles from the Known, the journey begins with reflection, sound, and the pull of the open road. It’s a story about how travel shapes us, how belonging takes root in unexpected places, and how the search for meaning often leads us back to ourselves. This is where it all begins. One story, one mile, one moment at a time.
