Dec 8, 2025
42 mins

Episode Description

Have you ever felt like you’ve outgrown your hometown, but still carry it in your heart?

In this episode, Tyra reflects on the delicate balance of loving where you’re from while stepping into who you’re becoming. From creating home moments in new spaces to redefining traditions and embracing growth, she shares personal stories, lessons learned, and practical ways to feel connected even when you’re far from home.


This week’s Affirmation is: “It is safe for me to outgrow what once felt familiar.”


3 Biggest Takeaways

  • Reflection is a form of self-respect: acknowledging your roots while making space for who you’re becoming.
  • Growth often requires leaving comfort behind,  and that’s okay. Outgrowing a place doesn’t mean abandoning it.
  • Home is a feeling, not a zip code, it can live in memories, traditions, and the life you intentionally build for yourself.
