#45 Awkward AF
In this episode, I'm coming to you fresh from an upcoming adventure with my wonderful swimming friends in an adventure that perfectly aligns with the theme of embracing authenticity and breaking free from societal norms.
Together, we'll wade into the waters of our experiences, discussing the power of inclusive and accepting spaces, like my cherished jellyfish swimming group. These spaces ground us and peel away the layers of small talk, revealing our raw humanity beneath as we explore how the performance of perfectionism can mask our true selves, the very essence that makes us beautifully human.
Are you ready to shake off the weight of societal demands and embrace your unique brilliance? Tune in to this episode and let's embark on a journey of self-discovery, self-acceptance, and finding solace in our beautifully imperfect selves.
