Coming Home: Why Leaving Showed Me What I Already Had

Send us Fan Mail

Summer brings changes to the podcast schedule with mini-episodes replacing the weekly Sunday format, allowing for more flexible content delivery throughout the week.

• First-ever family cruise vacation with husband, three children, stepchildren and their families 
• Reality of family vacation differed dramatically from expectations of being "fun mom" without responsibilities
• Breaking routine proved challenging—no morning meditation, limited personal time, confined spaces, restricted internet access
• Emotional breakdown on day two after children complained despite all the preparation work
• First excursion disappointments including misleading descriptions and limited food options
• Cocoa Beach Club excursion marked a turning point in enjoyment 
• Unexpected realization that coming home was more meaningful than the vacation itself
• Profound gratitude for home, family, stable job, and the life built with her husband
• Meditation recommended as a path to recognizing and appreciating your current life

I encourage everyone to start meditating—it's truly life-changing. If you're new to meditation, check out Kathy Heller's guided meditations at kathyheller.com, where I started my journey.
