Figuring It Out with Rachel Lee

Ever catch yourself thinking, “What is wrong with me?”

Or judging someone else with, “What the hell is wrong with them?”

This episode is your permission slip to pause… and ask a better question.

In today’s conversation, I unpack the difference between what happened to you and what’s wrong with you — and why that one shift in perspective is a game-changer for healing, boundaries, and emotional maturity.

In this episode, Rachel Lee dives deep into what it truly means to choose yourself — even when it feels uncomfortable or uncertain.

From setting boundaries to embracing your own path, Rachel explores how self-trust and courage can transform the way you show up in your life.

Whether you’re navigating change, chasing a dream, or simply trying to reconnect with who you are, this conversation will remind you that choosing yourself isn’t selfish — it’s essential.

Tune in to Figuring it Out and join Rachel every Wednesday for honest talks about growth, self-discovery, and figuring it all out, one step at a time.

Words shape us — sometimes more than we realize.

In this episode, I’m getting real about the power of what’s been said to us… and what we say to ourselves.

From the phrase that changed my life at 13 to the way it shaped my self-worth, relationships, and even how I parented — this one’s personal. But it’s also universal. Because we’ve all carried someone else’s words longer than we should have.

We’ll talk about how to break free from the ones that hurt, how to rewrite the ones that play in your head, and how to start speaking to yourself like someone you love.

✨ Real talk. Real healing. Real stories.

You’re not broken — you’re rewriting.

This one’s not a full episode — it’s more of a reflection, a pause, a heart-to-heart moment.

After Motherhood Solo, I found myself thinking about the parts I didn’t say — the pieces that still deserved a voice.

In this bonus episode, I talk about:

• ​Why I never talked badly about my kids’ fathers
• ​What it’s meant to leave the door open for my oldest to have his own relationship with his dad
• ​The importance of asking the questions you deserve answers to — while you still can
• ​And the reminder that using your head isn’t just about logic — it’s about protecting your peace and your future
• ​

This one’s real talk — unfiltered, emotional, and honest. Because sometimes the in-between moments are where the biggest lessons live.

💛 If you’re figuring out parenting, healing, or just life — this one’s for you.

Self-care isn’t selfish — and it’s not all candles and calm playlists.

In this episode, Rachel shares how her idea of self-care evolved from stolen moments on the back patio to something deeper — learning how to create peace, set boundaries, and find calm in the chaos of single motherhood.

You’ll hear what self-care really looks like when life is heavy: how it changes as you grow, how guilt shows up, and why it’s okay if your version doesn’t look like anyone else’s.

Because sometimes self-care is a long walk at the gym.

Sometimes it’s saying “no.”

And sometimes… it’s simply letting yourself rest.

💛 What does self-care look like for you?

Raising two boys without a partner wasn’t the plan — but it’s my story.

In this episode, I open up about what motherhood has looked like when you’re the only parent in the house. The fear that kept me from letting the wrong people in, the moments I second-guessed myself, and the deep pride that comes from realizing I actually did it.

“Motherhood solo” doesn’t mean motherhood alone. I had friends, family, and a tribe who helped me keep going — but I didn’t have that one person to share the load with. And even though that’s not how I imagined my life, I can say this with full honesty: I’ve raised two incredible humans, and I’ve done a damn good job.

If you’ve ever carried more than your share or wondered whether you’re doing enough, this one’s for you.

Grief changes everything. By the age of 33, I had lost both of my parents and my brother. Each loss was different, each one reshaped me, and each one taught me lessons I’m still carrying today.

In this first episode of Figuring It Out, I share some of my personal journey through loss — the devastation of becoming an orphan, the milestones where grief surprised me all over again, and the way it showed up differently for my sons than it did for me.

This isn’t a polished “how to” on moving through grief — because the truth is, grief never goes away. You just learn to carry it. Some days you carry it gracefully, and other days it crushes you.

If you’ve ever felt the hollow silence after losing someone you love, or if you’re walking through it right now, I hope this episode makes you feel less alone. Because grief isn’t something we solve. It’s something we figure out, one day at a time.

Welcome to Figuring It Out with Rachel Lee — a podcast for anyone who’s ever looked around and thought, “Wasn’t life supposed to look different than this?”

By the time I was 33, I had already lost both my parents and my brother. I raised two boys completely on my own, never married, never seriously asked. Through grief, resilience, and single motherhood, I had to figure it out.

In this trailer, I’ll share what this podcast is about, why I started it, and what you can expect each week.
