Hosted by Laura Cathcart Robbins, a writer and a recovery thriver and survivor, Laura found herself in an all too familiar position. In September 2018, she was the only black woman in the room at Brave Magic, a famed writer’s retreat.

Season 2 of Migratory Patterns kicks off with a twist: On a trip back to my hometown of Boston in December for my BFF's wedding, she took the reins of the show when we sat down to talk about what life overseas is like for me. I've known Virginia Johnson since she started college, and we've been close friends for 20+ years (my wife calls her my "sister-friend," which we both love). In our discussion, we explore how I feel about my own #MigrationStory through the questions of a loved one who has been "left behind." What was it like to make the move? What does it feel like when you come back for a visit? And what can't you talk about because you don't know how to? It was a much more challenging conversation than I thought it would be.
