Most of all, Rebecca introduces a new podcast: "The Waystation is a podcast powered by Pioneering Collective, wherein every episode, we explore first-person stories, each told on a common theme but sourced from vastly diverse perspectives. We’ll introduce you to people whose lives are seemingly different from yours… or are they? Through these stories, you may even find that you and me and he and she and they and them are more alike than sometimes we’re willing to admit. Plus, why not share a few laughs and tears, and be entertained along the way to wherever you’re going? Our goal with The Waystation is to provide you with a not-so-subtle reality check that YOU… are not alone."
