The Journey Into Belonging

from The Belonging Podcast by Elev8 Villages · host Melissa Kaye

Send us Fan MailTwenty-five conversations. One extraordinary journey.When I began The Belonging Podcast, I thought I was collecting interviews.Instead, I found myself collecting pieces of a puzzle.Over the past six months, I sat down with psychologists, pastors, educators, entrepreneurs, foster care advocates, coaches, and changemakers from many different walks of life. Each arrived with their own story, their own language, and their own understanding of belonging.What surprised me most wasn't their differences.It was how often they finished one another's thoughts.Although none of these guests have ever met, their voices weave together into one continuous conversation about one of the deepest human longings we all share:To know that we matter.The Journey Into Belonging is not a "best of" episode. It is a documentary created entirely from the wisdom of the remarkable people who have joined us throughout this first season.As you listen, you may discover that this isn't simply their journey.It may become your own.Thank you for walking this road with us.And thank you for helping create a world where more people know what it feels like to belong.With gratitude,Melissa KayeFounder, Elev8 VillagesTo support this work go to: https://givebutter.com/Z0LM5VTo learn more about Elev8 Villages go to: https://www.elev8villages.org/This podcast exists because we believe belonging is not a luxury.
