Welcome to Coming Home to Her — I’m Sofia. I started this podcast during that phase of your 20s where life looks fine on paper, but inside everything feels like it’s shifting. You’re building a life, moving places, relationships get serious, friendships change, and no one really prepares you for how confusing that part can be. I share honest stories about living abroad, love, identity shifts, and learning to trust yourself in real time. I’m not here with answers, just reflections while I’m in it. New episodes every week. Welcome home 🤍

Ep 28: Romanticizing Your Life Actually Works. Here's Why. 10.07.2026

People talk about romanticizing your life like it’s an aesthetic. Matcha, linen, golden hour walks. But I think it’s actually something else entirely. In this episode, I talk about a moment I had on a flight going through old photos — realizing I was romanticizing memories I wasn’t even fully present for when I was living them. I also share a piece of advice someone gave me during the hardest wint...

Ep 27: Lucky Girl Syndrome: Delusional or Low-Key Effective? 04.07.2026

Lucky Girl Syndrome is everywhere. Girls swearing that walking around expecting good things to happen actually makes them happen. And honestly? I can't fully decide if it's genius or unhinged. In this episode I share why I think there's actually something real in it — including a memory from when I was 14 sitting on a playground in Copenhagen that I still think about. Plus where I thin...

Ep 26: You Know You Live Somewhere When You Stop Using Google Maps 26.06.2026

You know you've become a local somewhere the day you stop using Google Maps. Today I'm talking about how a new place actually starts to feel like home — not one big moment, but small things repeating until they add up. The metro you used to fear. The cafe that knows your face, not your name. A street you no longer need a map for. If you've ever moved somewhere new and wondered when it...

Ep 25: Things I Think Are Overrated… But I’m a Hypocrite 18.06.2026

Today’s episode is a little lighter, a little more opinionated, and honestly… slightly hypocritical. I’m talking about things I think are overrated — from “that girl” routines and the 5AM club to cold plunges, dating apps, situationships, LinkedIn culture, and the idea that your 20s are automatically the best years of your life. Some I respect. Some I do. Some I simply cannot get behind. It’s not...

Ep 24: Making Friends As An Adult Is So Awkward 11.06.2026

Making friends as an adult is so much harder than anyone warns you about. When we're younger it just kind of happens. Same environment, same people, forced together until suddenly you have a best friend. But as an adult — especially when you've moved somewhere new — you actually have to try. And trying is awkward. In this episode I talk about why it gets so much harder as we get older, wha...

Ep 23: The Lies I Believed At 22 06.06.2026

I used to be so sure about certain things. That real friends never drift apart. That adults had everything figured out. That confidence meant never doubting yourself. That moving abroad would magically solve more than it actually did. In this episode I'm looking back at ten things I genuinely believed at 22 — and what happened when real life proved me wrong. Some of them are funny. Some of the...

Ep 22: Things I'm Currently Obsessed With + Life Lately 28.05.2026

Okay we’ve been pretty emotionally deep lately. So today — no identity crises, no emotional unpacking. Just me talking about the random things I’m currently obsessed with, what life/routine has genuinely looked like lately, and a little Vienna life update. We’re talking coffee rituals, my unhinged skincare situation, workout classes, emotional support cafés, Caesar salads at an unreasonable freque...

Ep 21: Why Some People Feel Heavy to Be Around 22.05.2026

You know that feeling when you leave someone and you're just... exhausted. And nothing bad even happened. Some people don't drain you dramatically. They just slowly use up all the space. In this episode I talk about what heavy energy actually looks like, why the guilt of it is the hardest part, and why your exhaustion around certain people is information worth listening to.

Ep 20: What I Actually Do When I’m Having a Bad Day 14.05.2026

Some days I wake up and before I've even looked at my phone I already feel bleh. Everything feels wrong. My apartment feels wrong. I feel wrong. And nothing technically happened. In this episode I talk about what actually pulls me out of a bad day — not the generic stuff, the real things that actually work for me. From getting outside no matter what, solo dates, calling the right person, and why s...

Ep 19: Why You Don't Need to Explain Yourself Anymore 07.05.2026

Have you ever walked away from a conversation and immediately thought… why did I just say all of that? Not because you said anything wrong. Just because you gave away more than you needed to. More than you actually wanted to. In this episode I talk about over-explaining. Why we do it, what it's really saying about our relationship with ourselves, and the thing nobody talks about: how over-expl...

Ep 18: I Don't Think I Fit Into One Place Anymore 30.04.2026

Have you ever felt like you don’t fully belong where you are — but also don’t fully belong where you came from anymore? There’s a phase where you outgrow old environments and old versions of yourself… but haven’t fully found where you fit next. In this episode, I talk about that in between — the disconnect, the identity shifts, and how different parts of you show up depending on where you are. May...

Ep 17: Being Sexy for Yourself (Not for Anyone Else) 23.04.2026

There’s something about doing things just for yourself that feels different. Not for attention, not for validation — just because it makes you feel good. Whether it’s putting effort into your outfit, switching up small things, or just taking a bit more care of your space and your energy… it really does shift how you show up. No one might even notice — and that’s kind of the point. It’s simple, but...

Ep 16: When You Don't Recognize Yourself Anymore — The In-Between Era 16.04.2026

There’s a phase in life where you don’t fully feel like who you used to be… but you also don’t recognize who you’re becoming yet.                                    It’s confusing, uncomfortable, and honestly a little unsettling. But maybe nothing is wrong — it might just be where everything starts to change.

Ep 15: Why You Can Feel Lonely Even When You're Surrounded by People 10.04.2026

Some days you feel completely fine, and other days loneliness hits you out of nowhere. The waves of loneliness can feel confusing — from moments of feeling isolated and disconnected, to days where you feel full and deeply appreciative of the people around you. Loneliness isn’t always about being alone, but often about not feeling understood, especially during periods of change or when you’re in ne...

Ep 14: What to Do When People Don't Like You (And Why It Says More About Them) 02.04.2026

One of the hardest but also most freeing things to accept is that not everyone is going to like you. In this episode, I talk about why being disliked or misunderstood can feel so personal, and what changes when you stop trying to manage how other people see you. I also share how growing up around someone who is fully and unapologetically themselves shaped the way I think about confidence and authe...

Ep 13: Dating in Your 20s: Situationships, Mixed Signals & Everything In Between 26.03.2026

Dating today can feel… a bit all over the place. Mixed signals, situationships, ghosting, and trying to understand what people actually want. In this episode, I’m joined by my step sister Nani and we talk about modern dating — the patterns we’ve noticed, the things so many girls experience but don’t always say out loud, and what we’ve learned from our own dating experiences. From red flags to mixe...

Ep 12: What Your Emotional Triggers Are Trying to Tell You 19.03.2026

Sometimes a small situation can trigger a much bigger emotional reaction than we expect. A comment, a text, a moment of rejection, or feeling misunderstood can suddenly bring up feelings we don’t fully understand. In this episode, I talk about emotional triggers — why certain situations affect us so strongly, what our reactions might actually be telling us, and how learning to acknowledge and unde...

Ep 11: The Real Glow Up Nobody Talks About (It's Not What You Think) 12.03.2026

A lot of people think a glow up is about appearance. But most real glow ups start when you begin building routines that make your life feel less chaotic and more supportive. In this episode, I talk about small habits, "soft discipline," and creating daily anchors that help you feel more grounded. I also get personal about my own experience with hormonal cystic acne — what that journey lo...

Ep 10: Why You Can't Switch Off (And What Your Nervous System Is Actually Telling You) 04.03.2026

Have you ever felt like your brain never fully turns off? Even when your life is stable, your body still feels tense, restless, or slightly on edge. In this episode, we talk about what’s actually happening when your nervous system is stuck in alert mode, why uncertainty and modern life keep us feeling overstimulated, and how small changes like sleep, movement, boundaries, and slowing down can help...

Ep 9: Feeling Behind in Your 20s (Even When You’re Not) 26.02.2026

There’s this anxiety a lot of people in their 20s share: the feeling that you should have it more figured out by now. Even when nothing is technically wrong. Today we talk about why adulthood suddenly feels uncertain, how social comparison warps our sense of progress, and why exploration often feels like falling behind. You’re not actually late — you’re just living a life that doesn’t follow a syn...

Ep 8: Self-Love Isn't What You Think It Is — Here's What It Actually Looks Like 19.02.2026

We hear “love yourself” everywhere… but what does that actually look like on a random Tuesday when you overthink something you said, feel behind, or let someone affect your mood? In this episode I talk about why self-love is so much harder than loving other people, how our inner voice forms, and why confidence and self-love are not the same thing. I also get into self-love when you’re single vs wh...

Ep 7: Can Long-Distance Actually Work? (My Experience) 11.02.2026

In this episode I share my experience being in a long-distance relationship for a year and a half while living in different countries. We only saw each other once a month, so there was no shared routine — just effort, communication, and learning to trust each other without proximity. I talk about what helped us make it work, why having a future mattered more than constant reassurance, and how dist...

Ep 6: What No One Tells You About Moving Abroad — The Honest Truth 04.02.2026

Moving abroad sounds exciting… until the adrenaline wears off. In this episode, I’m talking about what it’s actually been like moving away from home. The emotional comedown after the excitement, missing things I didn’t expect to miss, and the weird “now what?” phase no one really warns you about. If you’ve moved abroad (or are thinking about it) and felt unsettled, emotional, or surprised by how i...

Ep 5: Why Your Hometown Friends Hit Different (And Why That Never Goes Away) 28.01.2026

In this episode, I’m joined by two of my childhood best friends, Celia and Marina — sisters who have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. Together, we dive into the meaning of sisterhood, the different types of friendships we’ve experienced throughout life so far, and how these relationships are a part of life. We talk about lifelong friendships, evolving dynamics, and the deep unde...

Ep 4: What 20 Years of Friendship Actually Looks Like — With My Best Friend Emma 21.01.2026

I’m joined by my childhood best friend, Emma, and we do what we’ve always done best - yap. We catch up on how our friendship has grown over the years, the ways we’ve changed, and what adulthood looks like when you’re figuring it out side by side. It’s an easy, nostalgic conversation full of laughter, reflection, and a lot of yapping.
