About this episode

This episode explores the significance of leaving a light on at home as a metaphor for self-awareness and personal habits.

There is a small habit you might not even notice. You leave a lamp on for yourself before you go out, so that when you come home, the house is not dark. What if that quiet little gesture is saying more about you than you realize? With this episode, we follow a porch light all the way to the edge of the ordinary, and just past it.
