In Episode 3, we're talking about emotional homelessness.
The feeling of constantly searching for belonging.
The feeling of looking for home in other people.
The feeling of wanting someone to choose you, understand you, and make you feel safe.
In one of the most personal episodes I've recorded so far, I share stories from my childhood, relationships, leadership career, friendships, and healing journey to explore how loneliness shaped my life and what I've learned about building genuine connection.
We'll talk about childhood wounds, achievement, relationships, community, self-worth, and why finding your tribe may be one of the most important things you do in adulthood.
If you've ever felt lonely, unseen, emotionally exhausted, or like you've spent your entire life searching for a place to belong, this episode is for you.
You're not the only one.
