What does it mean to build a life when you’re equally drawn to staying and going?
In this episode of Hōmish, I sit down with writer and digital strategist Holly Wielkoszewski to talk about the long, nonlinear journey home. From cross-country moves to overseas assignments, Holly shares what it’s been like to rebuild her life again and again.
Now rooted in rural New Mexico, Holly is constructing an Earthship with her husband while still carving out space for seasonal adventure. Together, we explore the tension between stability and motion, how to listen for the right rhythm in your life, and what it means to make peace with the in-between.
This is an episode about liminality, loss, landing, starting over, and finding a version of home that doesn’t force you to choose between staying or leaving.

You’ve seen the dreamy travel vlogs, viral reels, expat TikToks full of blissful morning markets, aesthetic cafes, rooftop sunsets. They’re beautiful.
But they’re not the whole story.
In this episode, I’m sharing what most people don’t talk about when it comes to living abroad (and coming back):
The quiet grief you didn’t expect
The emotional labor of explaining yourself—again and again
The subtle, persistent ache of not being truly known
The kind of strength you don’t give yourself enough credit for
If you’ve ever felt like you’re floating between places, identities, or chapters, this one’s for you.
I also share why I created Third Spaces—a virtual support circle for women navigating life abroad, re-entry, or the in-between.
It’s not a course. It’s not therapy. It’s just a soft space to land.
