Cultivating Local Community: Finding Home, Healing, and Belonging
Description
What does it mean to truly belong somewhere?
Many of us know what it’s like to live or work in a place that doesn’t feel like ours, that disconnection leaves us isolated. Community is essential to healing because it grounds you 🌿, gives you purpose 🌞, and reminds you that you’re not meant to do life alone .
Joining me is Holland Ward 3 City Council Member Bylnda Sól (and my mom ). A 35-year resident of Holland, veteran 🇺🇸, and community advocate. Bylnda brings her perspective as a mother, Latina, and lifelong volunteer.
In this episode, we explore:
🌱 The importance of putting down roots.
💨 Resisting the pull of fight-or-flight.
🏡 Creating a local community you can call home.
🗳️ Why voting locally impacts your daily life more than you think.
If you’re a resident of Ward 3 in the City of Holland, consider voting for Bylnda Sól.
🎧 Tune in to hear how rooting yourself in community can transform your sense of belonging, stability, and joy.
