Lydia shares the story of her first documentary, “Walking the Camino,” inspired by her own pilgrimage along the 500-mile Camino de Santiago. She discusses how the journey brought healing, connection, and inspiration to her life, leading her to explore the power of storytelling.

Lydia’s latest project, “Cellblocks to Mountaintops”, sheds light on the journey of incarcerated individuals who are transforming their lives. She highlights the importance of restorative justice and urges listeners to see the humanity in each person impacted by the criminal justice system.
