Summary
Today, we're answering a powerful question from a listener who writes:
"...how do you find a sense of place and home, when we live in an increasingly mobile world? This is a topic often discussed among people in the development community who move often. We all struggle with our sense of "home" and what that means. I also wonder if it is also a wider issue for entrepreneurs who do not need to necessarily be in "one place" to work. It has come up among your guests from time to time. I know this is of particular interest to my friends and colleagues- who all practice various forms "personal grounding" for want of a better word - whether that be meditation or other rituals."
In this week's Riff, we explore a few key elements to finding and creating that sense of home, no matter where you are in the world. Hint: it's as much about people as it is about place.
If you have questions you'd like answered in a future GLP Riff, be sure to let us know on facebook, instagram or twitter.

| 0:20.3 | the studio here trying, trying, sometimes not all that well to block out the sound from |
| 0:26.4 | the city streets and so it's kind of a nice time to settle in and do a little bit of thinking |
| 0:32.8 | out loud with you. |
| 0:34.2 | And today's topic, it's all about the idea of home. |

| 0:49.7 | So when was the last time you just completely stepped outside of your everyday life of the |
| 0:55.1 | constraints of the pace of the physical setting and stepped into an alternative reality, |
| 1:02.4 | a place just surrounded by nature where you could drop the facade, where you felt your heart |
| 1:07.7 | rate just lower, where you knew that you were surrounded by people, where they didn't |
| 1:12.6 | care what you did. |
| 1:14.1 | They just wanted to hang out with you and accept you for who you are and you could spend |
| 1:17.2 | three and a half days reconnecting with yourself, rejuvenating your spirit, your mind, your |
| 1:22.6 | physical body and having those amazing conversations that you thought you'd left behind all while |
