Episode 58: Wizard of Oz: There’s No Place Like...

Summary:  On this episode of the Act To Live Podcast, Jaime and Scott explore the word ‘home.’ They share their own thoughts connected to the concept - experiences connected to physical places they’ve lived; feelings when surrounded by the people who mean most to them; and, even thoughts that surface when eating a certain food or participating in a specific activity. The duo also talks about the challenging thoughts and emotions that might arise if/when we find ourselves in situations that do not feel like ‘home.’ Scott and Jaime then wrap up the episode by challenging listeners to think about the concept of ‘home’ and what it looks like for them - especially as we approach the holiday season.  ACTion Event of the Week: Take some time this holiday season to think about the word ‘home.’ What does it mean to you? What thoughts, feelings, and emotions do you experience when you are at ‘home?’  Thanks for your continued support! We’ll see you in 2022 for the launch of Season 4! Stay tuned!  References: Beck, J.
