In this episode, I chat with Rachel Picciano from Somewhere Rach about travel, blogging, entrepreneurship, and the personal growth that comes from building something meaningful—while still working full-time in the corporate world. Rachel shares how she started her travel blog as a creative outlet, with a focus on inspiring others to seek out intentional, soul-filling experiences.
We talk about what it takes to balance a 9–5 with a growing blog, how to stay consistent when time is tight, and why setting boundaries matters. Rachel also shares her journey of learning SEO, laying the foundation for future brand partnerships, and releasing perfectionism in order to move forward with clarity and purpose.
If you're building something on the side, dreaming of more freedom, or craving encouragement to keep going, this episode will meet you right where you are—with faith, strategy, and a whole lot of heart.
