Synopsis

At sixty-seven, after a lifetime of responsibility and more than four decades in a successful career in financial services, Monica R. McCarthy listened to a quiet voice within—and said yes. What began as a fifty-one-day solo journey through Bali, Ireland, Spain, the Azores, and Tuscany—and later continued in Costa Rica—became something far more profound: a journey inward. Through sacred ceremonies, ancestral connections, unexpected friendships, moments of grief, spiritual awakening, and the healing wisdom of her own body, Monica began releasing stories she had carried for decades and learning to trust herself in an entirely new way. My Journey Home is not simply a travel memoir. It is an intimate exploration of what can happen when a woman stops living only by expectation and begins listening to the quiet voice within. Written with warmth, vulnerability, and reflection, Monica’s story speaks especially to women in midlife and beyond who may be standing at their own crossroads—wondering who they are now, what they truly want, and whether it is too late to begin again. This is a story about courage, healing, trust, and self-discovery. But above all, it is a reminder that sometimes the journey that takes us farthest from everything familiar is the one that ultimately leads us home—to ourselves.
