About this listen

THRD Place Pod is where life happens—in the space between ‘should’ and ‘should not,’ between connection and division, between what we’re told and what we discover for ourselves. We’re after that secret third thing—the nuance, the gray area, the unexpected perspectives that bring our communities to life. If you love real conversations, unexpected insights, and connecting with people who are figuring it out just like you, THRD Place Pod is where you want to be. Join us in the space in between.

  • A Pursuit of Purpose
    Aug 17 2025

    What does it really mean to find your purpose—and do we actually need just one? This week we’re unpacking the pressure of “life calling,” the myths around having it all figured out, and the messy truth about purpose shifting over time. From big dreams to small daily joys, we’re exploring how meaning shows up in unexpected places and how sometimes simply showing up is enough.

  • Rejection or Redirection
    Jul 30 2025

    Rejection is many things: redirection, protection... and yes, sometimes just plain sucky. Hearing “no” rarely feels good, but often it’s exactly the detour we didn’t know we needed. Whether in love, friendship, or career, being turned away can unexpectedly set us on a path to success. This week, we’re unpacking the sting of rejection and the quiet wisdom that often follows. From ghosted texts to failed interviews, we're talking about the grief of what could’ve been—and how to make peace with the doors that close.
