For years, I lived in my flat surrounded by memories of everyone else. 

Photos of family. Photos of people I loved. Photos of moments that mattered. 

But almost none of me. 

In this episode, I talk about the surprisingly emotional experience of hanging childhood photos of myself around my home and the realization it triggered: I’ve spent most of my life seeing myself very differently from how other people see me. 

We get into: 

📸 Why I avoided photos of myself for years 

🪞 The gap between self-image and reality 

😩 Growing up feeling average and invisible 

✨ Learning to appreciate my body, flaws, and uniqueness 

💭 How confidence is built in tiny daily moments 

❤️ The people, relationships, and experiences that shaped how I saw myself 

This isn’t really an episode about beauty. 

It’s about self-acceptance. 

About learning to stop hiding from the camera. 

About realizing that the person you’ve been criticizing for years might actually be someone worth celebrating. 

If you’ve ever struggled to see your own worth, this one’s for you.
