“You’re trying to position yourself to fit in so that you feel accepted, but I don’t think that’s what belonging [means].”  Have you ever felt like nobody "gets you"? You work strange hours, you have unique hobbies, you're alone at the top of the leadership food chain... how can you belong without having to try to fit in?

We pull back the curtain on our personal lives, revealing the paths we've walked—through high-society gatherings and family dynamics—to discover where we genuinely fit.

Key Takeaways:

  • Fitting in vs. belonging
  • What's really linked to our happiness?
  • Why forcing ourselves to "like" something won't get us real friends
  • Ways to foster a sense of belonging in your life


The journey toward genuine connection doesn't end with simply finding your tribe; it's also about fostering those relationships with openness and empathy. On today's episode, we unravel the intricacies of social acceptance and the courage it takes to stand firm in one's identity.
