The idiom "leave a trail of breadcrumbs" refers to the act of providing hints or clues that guide someone to a desired outcome or destination. It is often used in contexts where one is trying to help someone navigate a complex situation or find their way back to a specific point. The phrase is derived from the fairy tale of Hansel and Gretel, where the characters leave breadcrumbs to find their way home.
