WELCOME TO THE SHOW! What does it feel like when the world keeps getting you wrong? Kellie talks about why being misunderstood can actually be the starting line for growth, not the finish.

Originally from her previous show, MissUnderstood, Kellie opens the podcast by unpacking the meaning behind the series: why it matters to examine the ways we’re misread, and how to turn those moments into momentum. She shares the times she’s felt most misunderstood: at the Naval Academy as a woman, for embracing femininity in uniform, for being labeled a “pageant girl,” and for choosing creative passions alongside military service.

Kellie also explains how her passions made her a stronger Naval Officer, how she balanced multiple callings, and practical ways to navigate others’ opinions without losing yourself. Take a breath, reflect on where you feel most misunderstood, and join Kellie as she dives into why those misunderstandings might be exactly who you are meant to become.

Note from Kellie: This was my pilot episode, released in April 2020. Give me some grace—I had no editing equipment and was truly building the plane as I flew it. I’ve grown so much since then, and what started here as MissUnderstood has now evolved into Why Not Do Both. But this was the beginning of it all—the heart behind everything that came after.Enjoyed this episode?
