S1E6: Home Is A Feeling
In the season finale, Lauren talks about bands she's grown up with that she's seen parts of herself reflected in, about songs that bring her back to a specific moment in time, and about sharing those things with other people and holding them as reverent privately. You can build a home around anything – this is about tuning in to the music that helps us get back in touch with who we’ve been and with who we want to be.
