Stopping "shoulding" and living life with no regrets 6000 miles from home with Rachel West

Written By Hope Eaton

This conversation with Rachel West, an adventurous high-school English teacher, a gifted storyteller and a fabulous human being, is one of my favourites.  We talked for over an hour (I’ve edited it down to 30) about the moment she realised that she could stop “shoulding” and how a Chinese New Year dragon parade in San Francisco lead them to take the leap to move to a small village 6000 miles away from home.   She shares stories of being in the in-between culturally, gender-wise, linguistically and their journey of self-awareness and realisation.  I think you are going to love Rachel as much as I do. 

You can find Rachel on Facebook and Instagram.
