Ep. 27: We're All Wired Differently And It's Not A Bad Thing

Triumph After Trauma

Do you ever feel like what makes you different from people makes you bad, wrong, or like you're not enough? You're not alone. I've been there, and people you both know and love I'm sure have been too.
There was a time I was ashamed of having an anxiety disorder, a form of depression, I hated being petite, etc. Essentially everything that was different from whoever I was hanging out with at the time I assumed made me wrong, bad, ugly, unlovable even.
Here's the thing, that is some bullshit ideal created by the society obsessed with those "celebs" who at the end of the day are just as much regular people like us and past generations who believed in some things I question. Just because society or your ancestors would claim a mental illness, your quirks, or your size/shape/etc makes you different but bad doesn't mean that is in fact the case. Yes these things make us all different, but these differences are a damn superpower. Our differences are magic. How do I know that? If we are all the exact same, life would be predictable and super boring. That's how I know!
If you need a reminder your differences make you beautiful and unique, and are a superpower.. here it is! I hope this episode helps you view yourself in a different (hopefully brighter) light.
