In this episode of Living Your Best Life, Suzanne discusses fitting in and feeling good in your own skin. Self-love and acceptance are the foundations of true confidence and inner peace. When we embrace who we are—flaws, quirks, and all—we stop chasing external validation and start living authentically. The pressure to fit in often leads us to shrink or hide parts of ourselves, but real belonging comes when we feel safe to be fully seen. Loving yourself isn't about being perfect—it's about being honest, kind, and patient with yourself, just as you are. Listen to my bonus episode tomorrow when I read the children's book Miggy's Playground which is a beautiful story about being true to yourself.

Reflection Questions:

1. What parts of myself have I hidden or changed in order to fit in, and how has that affected me?

2. How can I begin to show up more authentically in my daily life, even in small ways?

3. What does self-love look like for me right now—and where can I offer myself more patience or kindness?
