Episode notes
Judged for your choices? Terrorized by teenagers on wheels? This one’s for you. This week, I’m talking about why I “walked” the vegan life for a while, what pulled me in, and—more importantly—what pushed me right back out. (Spoiler: it wasn’t the tofu.) Then there’s the comment section hero who informed me we should “leave the fish alone” and stop eating anything with a pulse.
From there, we slide straight into the gym—where the all‑or‑nothing crowd loves to mock beginners like it’s a sport. And because the universe loves a theme, I wrap it all up with a real‑time suburban fever dream involving feral middle‑schoolers on e‑bikes who apparently believe they run the streets after dark.
If this episode speaks to you, subscribe for weekly conversations on psychology, self‑trust, and the quiet ways women reclaim their voice and their space.
