Through all the changes, Leviss chose to stay away from West Hollywood, California, and create a new reality for herself in Arizona.

When it comes to work, the former reality star is a certified sound bowl practitioner who is part of wellness retreats and various workshops. “Last night we welcomed the Lunar New Year: the year of the Fire Horse 🔥🐎,” Leviss wrote via Instagram in February 2026. “A year of bold, aligned action… while staying grounded and rooted in integrity. We set intentions to call in vibrant health, deep strength and true abundance.”It appears Rachel Leviss’ sound bowl business is based out of Arizona. In August 2024, the Bravo star explained what it was like living outside of Los Angeles. “It was almost like I had to reach this unhealthy level of toxicity in order to make a change in my life. I’m grateful that I’ve been able to step out of that,” she told Us. “I don’t think L.A. is all bad, but being in certain environments could bring out the worst in a person. So now when I go visit Santa Monica, I have new friends and there’s a common theme spirituality and not drinking. It’s a much healthier social circle that I’m in in L.A.”In October 2024, Rachel Leviss confirmed that she was in a new relationship with a “normal” person. The man’s identity was later revealed to be Jason Boucher. In April 2025, Leviss went Instagram official with Boucher when she posted photos of them cozying up at the Stagecoach Music Festival in Indio, California. While the couple tries to keep their relationship away from social media, Boucher posted a photo of his girlfriend in November 2025 while on vacation in Mexico. “Every time I describe him to my friends, I say that he’s normal and I show them a photo of him. They’re, like, ‘Wow, he does look normal.’ It’s such an accomplishment,” Leviss shared on an October 2024 episode of iHeartRadio’s “Rachel Goes Rogue” podcast. “Given my dating history, normal was not necessarily something that I was looking for in somebody else. He’s just such a supportive person and I just feel really happy.”Initially, Rachel Leviss teamed up with executive producer Bethenny Frankel to create the “Rachel Goes Rogue” podcast. Every week, Leviss promised to explore a spectrum of topics with authenticity. “She will passionately cultivate candid conversations, breaking the fourth wall in reality TV and frankly discussing living her entire dating life on camera,” iHeartRadio said in a press release. “Leviss will aspire to inspire, bring awareness to mental health issues and challenge the stigma surrounding treatment. Every topic is on the table with Rachel confronting her truths, exposing secrets and drawing strength from her continued transformations.”“I would like to thank my team and partnership with iHeart,” she wrote via Instagram at the time. “A special thanks to all the incredible guests who came on to share their expertise. Most importantly, I would like to thank everyone who gave the podcast a listen and hopefully had a positive experience.”In August 2024, Rachel Leviss acknowledged that building a new social circle as an adult can be difficult. Fortunately, she found a great group of friends through yoga. “There’s just so much love there and it’s so easy to get along with everybody. so drama-free and everyone has just been super welcoming,” she told Us. “This is how it should be like. It should be healthy friendships. It shouldn’t really be people tearing each other down in order to get power over one another. I feel like I was in that dynamic and that dysfunctional friend group for so long that that did feel normal to me. Now I have these new friends that have been friends for years and they have such a close connection.”
