About this listen

S2 : EP 6 Are you an Ugly Duckling?🐥

Everyone knows the fairytale. This one’s different.

I wasn’t just the “ugly duckling”—I was the invisible kid. Ethnic, awkward, second-language speaker. Even the teachers ignored me. At 7, I stopped playing along. While the class ran carnival races, I walked the other way—my silent protest. My first “fuck you” to the system.

This episode is about growing up unseen, fighting to be seen, and the messy road to self-worth. We talk fake “favorite child” gaslighting, strangers vs. parents' validation, and the moment I stopped apologizing for who I was.

Plus—does fashion actually change how men are perceived? And why do some of the most beautiful girls not believe it?

This isn’t a glow-up story. It’s a reckoning.
