Episode 3: “Drawn to the Flame”

In this raw and reflective episode, Lady T opens up about patterns — the kind we don’t always notice until they start to burn. From being drawn to strong personalities to unpacking childhood roots of affection and approval, this episode is a soft but honest exploration of healing.

Plus, a new Run, Girl, Run Checklist and a cozy Joy Segment remind us that we’re not just surviving — we’re rewriting the narrative, whoever we are and however we identify.

Pull up a chair. Take a breath. And know that you're never alone — not at this table.

Loneliness doesn’t always come from being alone — sometimes it’s feeling unseen even when surrounded by people. In this episode, Tate opens up about the quiet ache of isolation, the emotional aftershocks of COVID, and how healing begins when we finally feel witnessed.

She shares a listener-inspired story that many will relate to, reflects on the way our circles shifted post-pandemic, and reminds us that reaching out — even when it feels scary — is a radical act of hope.

Featuring soft wisdom, a joyful little win, and even some unfiltered chirps from her birds (who had a lot to say), this episode is a reminder that loneliness doesn’t mean you’re broken. It means you’re human. And here at the Roundtable, there’s always a seat for you.

🕯️ “You’re not too much. You were never too sensitive, too loud, too anything. You were just trying to be seen. And I see you now.”

This is more than a podcast — it’s a late-night pour of truth, comfort, and a splash of soul. I created this space for the ones who’ve carried shame that wasn’t theirs… who’ve stayed silent to keep the peace… and who are finally ready to reclaim their voice.

In Episode 1, we talk about the line that cracked me open:
“You can’t shame me with the scars you gave me.”
Inspired by Citizen Soldier’s song Sit in Your Shadows, this episode is about naming your truth and releasing what was never yours to carry.

Whether you’re sipping a Manhattan, mocktail, or mint tea — this table is open to you.

“If you’ve ever questioned your worth, your sanity, or your strength… you’re not alone. This podcast is your reminder that your story matters and healing is possible.”

“This isn’t just a podcast — it’s a conversation. You’re invited to pull up a chair, write in, send a voice note, or even come on the show. Your voice belongs at the table.”

There’s no deadline on healing. No timeline for forgiveness. You don’t have to have it all figured out to deserve peace.”

Silence protects abusers. Telling your story is not betrayal — it’s liberation. Speak your truth, even if your voice shakes.”

No matter your gender, background, beliefs, or story — this space is for you. We listen with love and respect. Always.”
