What happens when the place you were born doesn’t recognize you… but it’s still the only place that’s ever felt like home?
In this powerful episode, Sam Idra shares what it meant to return to East Africa after growing up in the U.S.—not as a tourist, but as a man searching for something deeper. What he found wasn’t just family or culture—it was joy in its purest form.
We talk tribal roots, identity loss, the myth of Western success, and why true community doesn’t ask for credentials—it just shows up. Sam also opens up about his mission here in Omaha, where he’s helping others rebuild their lives through mentorship, housing, and radical care.
This conversation is a full-circle reckoning—with home, with heritage, and with what it really means to belong.
