In Pursuit of Rhythm with Rachel Cargle

In this deeply reflective episode of the Power to Pursue Podcast, Rachel DeRochers sits down with writer, founder, and cultural thinker Rachel Cargle for a conversation about what it means to be well, not as a goal, but as a daily practice. Rachel shares what she’s learning in this season of stillness: returning home to Ohio, paying attention to cycles, redefining ambition, and letting go of the noise that once shaped her choices. Together, they explore grief as an expansive teacher, the freedom that can coexist with loss, and how tending to ourselves, and each other, is an act of radical care. This episode touches on: Redefining success, rhythm, and enoughness Grief, gratitude, and the ways they live side by side Aging, self-trust, and learning yourself over time Creating spaces of safety, community, and belonging Why “it can just be this beautiful” is more than a mantra This is a conversation for anyone navigating change, healing, or the quiet courage it takes to choose yourself, again and again.
