Intro

What if the thing you’ve been told your whole life, that you work too much, that you don’t relax enough, that you should “just enjoy yourself” isn’t something you need to “fix”…but a value?

In the third and final episode of this travel series, your host Suzy Welch takes us to Paris. Not for romance, not for nostalgia, not even for the croissants (though, obviously, yes). She goes for something much deeper: clarity.

This is the concluding chapter in a three-part exploration of how travel can wake us up – not to new landscapes – but to new eyes. To the truth of who we are underneath the stories we tell ourselves.

In Part One, Suzy stood at the Taj Mahal and reckoned with Belovedness, the value of romantic love. In Part Two, she returned to Sicily and uncovered a family history that reshaped her understanding of Scope – the hunger for a big, expansive life. And now, in Part Three, we arrive in Paris in the summer, at a moment that is both outwardly relaxing and inwardly seismic.

Suzy finds herself on the Île de la Cité, standing before the newly restored Notre Dame, and confronted by a surprising realization about two values that rarely coexist peacefully: Eudemonia…and Workcentrism. This is an episode about:

• What it means to honor your values without apology
• Why purpose is not one-size-fits-all
• What happens when you stopping judging yourself – and others – for the ways we choose to organize a life 

The goal isn’t to live someone else’s version of happiness, it’s to live in alignment with your own. Welcome to seeing yourself, at last, with new eyes.
