In this episode, we’re continuing the Summer Stories series, which is a seasonal peek behind the scenes of how I create home, even on the go. Today’s story is about the journey versus the destination, and how focusing on the end goal can keep us from embracing the moments along the way.

This summer, we’re hitting the road again — this time, traveling to the Northwest Territories, Yukon, and Alaska. I’m reflecting on the lessons learned from our Cross Canada trip a couple of years ago, and how those experiences taught me about the importance of the journey — not just the destination.

This episode is for you if you’ve ever:

• Focused too much on the destination and missed the beauty of the journey

• Found yourself so fixated on the end goal that you didn’t celebrate the little wins along the way

• Needed a reminder that every step, no matter how small, brings you closer to where you're meant to be

• Tried to find peace in your home and life, even when things aren’t going according to plan

We’ll explore:

• How focusing on the journey can shift your perspective and bring more fulfillment

• The power of embracing the little moments and not just waiting for the “big arrival”

Whether you’re on your own adventure or navigating a season of waiting, this story is a reminder to celebrate the journey and embrace all the little moments along the way.
