Do you care if you're popular or not? It seems like a weird question, but how often do we adjust our topics of conversation or our clothes in order to please other people? In this podcast, we'll discuss the power of knowing ourselves and the consequences for showing up authentically. The goal is to show up as we are and to honor those members of our tribe that accept us wholeheartedly. Thanks for tuning in!

I SO agree with what you're saying here! It may have taken me a longer time to figure this out, but SO grateful to hear younger people are figuring this out sooner than I did. It feels SO great to be just who I am. The right people for me show up because they are drawn to me. People who are not interested in who I am don't tend to stay engaged, and that's okay. My life is full and the few who are interested in who I am keep showing up and are always there for me. I am forever grateful for that. High school was a nightmare for me. I didn't fit in well anywhere. Even though I had a small group of friends, I was not really connected and felt they were not really connected with me. I know why. I've always been a deeply spiritual person and people seem to shy away from that. Thankfully, I've always been stong enough to not get too depressed or sad because of not being understood. I'm not saying I have never been depressed, even deeply depressed, but at those times I was overwhelmed with extenuating circumstances in my life. Thankfully I was able to dig myself out of the hole I was in, a couple of those times I sought help and I was grateful that was help to be had. Anyway, these days, I don't feel a need to popular. I think it's because I love who I am. I have re-membered (love that word). Thanks again, Jen!
