28. Our Desire for Belonging, Self-Discovery, Being Perceived and Misunderstood

Words with Me Podcast

Let's talk about finding ourselves! We all have a desire to belong and to be seen by the right people. We have to be careful to not find our value and worth only in what other people can do for us or say about us. Self-discovery is a lifelong journey and it's okay if there are some bumps in the road.

In this episode I also talk about:

• Netflix and "America's Sweethearts"
• Withstanding peer pressure
• Our fear of being fully seen
• Tying our worth to accomplishments and accolades
