In this episode, #230 - There's No Place Like Home, I dive into one of my favorite stories of all time — The Wizard of Oz — and explore the lessons it holds for missionaries, returned missionaries, and anyone navigating the twists and turns of personal growth. Drawing on the symbolism of Dorothy, the Scarecrow, the Tin Man, the Lion, and even Elphaba from Wicked, we'll talk about what it really means to come "home." Spoiler alert: home isn't a place — it's you.

If you've ever felt caught in a tornado of emotions, uncertain about your path, or searching for peace after change or transition, this episode will help you find your footing again. I'll share practical tools for pulling yourself out of the whirlwind, learning to observe your thoughts without judgment, and remembering that you already have everything you need — the heart, courage, and wisdom — within you.

We'll also talk about the yellow brick road as a metaphor for your journey — how detours, delays, and unexpected turns are all part of your divine path. Whether you're serving a mission, coming home, or figuring out what's next, this episode will help you reconnect with your inner power, create emotional safety within yourself, and rediscover the truth that you are your own safe place. Because truly, there's no place like home.

As always, if you found this episode helpful, I want to invite you to subscribe if you aren't already, share this episode with your friends and missionaries you know, and write a review. I know this work will help LDS missionaries around the world and it would mean so much to me if you did. Until next week my friends.
