Episode 132: Chapter 1: The Fall into Wonderland

Series 8 – Courtney’s Crooked Crown

The fall wasn’t graceful—and neither was the life that led up to it.

In this opening chapter of Courtney’s Crooked Crown, we tumble headfirst into Wonderland, not with whimsy, but with the weight of reality: abandonment wounds, identity crises, and the sting of never quite being “enough.” This isn’t Alice’s fairytale descent—this is mine.

With a crooked crown slipping sideways and old scars bleeding into new beginnings, I unpack what it means to crash through expectations, fall apart, and still somehow land where you were always meant to be.

This episode is raw, personal, and unapologetically real. The fall broke me—but maybe, it also woke me up.
