    Episode 9: A Childhood Nobody
    Nov 22 2025

    Growing up, I often felt invisible—unseen and unheard. In this episode, "A Childhood Nobody," I open up about my own journey through the quiet corners and overlooked moments of my early years. Join me as I reflect on what it means to navigate childhood in the shadows, and how I found strength and resilience along the way.
