Ever feel like your life is made up of random pieces that don’t quite fit?
In this episode, I read an excerpt from A Promised Land by Barack Obama that beautifully captures the feeling of not belonging. Of being everywhere and nowhere at once.

I reflect on what it means to "tinker" with our lives, gather the pieces, and trust that even if we don’t have all the answers now, they’ll make sense in time.

If you’ve ever wrestled with uncertainty about your purpose or your path, this one’s for you.

Got a favorite quote or book that’s spoken to you deeply?
