Ever felt like you’re somehow… not like the others?
Like you stand out — at family dinners, summer parties, festivals, or even just in everyday conversations?
In this episode, we talk about those moments where you feel like the odd one out — whether it’s because you made a different life choice, changed direction, or just don’t vibe with the crowd around you.
No pressure to be loud or radically different — but an invitation to stay true to yourself, even if you feel a little offbeat.
I’m sharing personal stories (cheerleading in a tiny town, showing up sober at a beer pong table 😉), some lessons learned, and reflections that might help you navigate similar situations — a little more grounded, a little more confident, and a lot more you.
Let’s talk about…
✨ Belonging vs. authenticity
✨ Social norms that are just… weird
✨ Why people might push back when you grow
✨ And how to stay soft, open-hearted, and true to yourself through it all
No preaching, just real talk.
Let’s dive in.
