Leaving Home

Season 1 · Episode 3

Wednesday, October 15, 2025 • Duration 43:03

Home can be the house you grew up in. The country you were born in. It can be a person, a feeling, or an unidentifiable sense of safety. Sometimes people leave home because it isn’t safe, sometimes they leave to become who they are supposed to be, and sometimes the decision to leave is made for them. The search for safety, or the decision to leave it behind is something that joins all of today's stories.
