About this listen
In this month’s Act Two, we’re unpacking the beautiful chaos of Jodie Foster’s Home for the Holidays a film that understands exactly what it means to return home as a grown woman… and feel every version of yourself rise to the surface.
We talk about the way holidays expose family dynamics, old wounds, unexpected grace, and the quiet resilience women carry through it all. This is a story about identity, independence, belonging, and that bittersweet moment when you realize you’ve grown past the box your family still tries to put you in.
It’s messy, it’s tender, it’s hilarious and it captures the emotional transition so many women face in midlife: choosing your own peace, honoring your own voice, and redefining what “home” truly means.
If the holidays bring up a little too much, or if you’ve ever found yourself rebuilding your life in the middle of seasonal madness… this episode is for you.
