You Are Not Lost, You’re Just Looking for Home in the Wrong Places

What if the reason you’ve never felt fully “at home”…is because you’ve been looking for it in the wrong places?

In this deeply personal solo episode, Rachel shares her journey through small-town life, big-city independence, and everything in between—from living in New York City and buying her first apartment to returning to her hometown and questioning what “home” really means.

Inspired by the movie Elizabethtown and a quiet moment planting a garden with her father, this episode explores the emotional reality of feeling in-between versions of yourself—when you’ve grown, changed, and no longer fit where you once belonged.

In this episode, we talk about:

Why “home” isn’t a fixed place or feeling
The identity shift that comes with growth and change
The pressure of timelines, relationships, and “where you should be” in life
What it means to feel lost, disconnected, or in-between
And how to finally stop searching and start feeling at home within yourself

If you’ve ever felt like you don’t quite belong where you are…
or like you’re still searching for something you can’t quite name…This episode is for you.

Because home isn’t a place.
It’s something you build.

And eventually…you realize you’ve been carrying it with you all along.

Stay feisty. Stay free. Stay you.
