Hey! Rachel and Shirah here—welcome to our Zoom Out Podcast!
We’re two friends having honest, vulnerable conversations about life, healing, and all the messy, beautiful parts of being human. We don’t have all the answers—just a desire to see life from a wider lens. So if you’ve ever felt there’s a bigger picture you’re missing, you’re not alone.
Let’s zoom out, together.

Our Logo

What started as a tapestry in Rachel’s room became the heart of our podcast and our logo. The hug reminds us that we’re never truly alone, and the stars and colors reflect our “Zoom Out” vision: encouraging us to explore life from a wider, more wonder-filled perspective.
