Welcome to Episode 2 of Born this weird, where we sit down with Izzy Mango to explore the intersection of the LGBTQ+ experience, family breakdown, and the fierce development of self-reliance. When you grow up in a broken family, survival often dictates that you become your own anchor. But navigating a world that isn't always built for your identity forces an even deeper kind of psychological resilience.

In this episode, Izzy shares his raw human experience of overcoming childhood adversity, stepping into his authentic identity, and learning how to build security from the inside out. Tune in as we dissect the psychological blueprint of hyper-independence, the courage it takes to heal from relational trauma, and what it truly means to define family on your own terms.
