Adventurous Thoughts
Are you one for asking too many questions? About life, the way you create, love, or why you do the nonsensical things you do? Welcome to Adventurous Thoughts. Your oasis for conversations that expand your horizons about what's possible as a human. I'm your host, Rachel Leedom. Serial entrepreneur and web designer by day, singer-songwriter by night, and dolphin only in my dreams. Alongside these deep existential musings, you can expect notes of comedy, romanticism, and ceaseless optimism (in the face of my instinctive pessimism #human).
