That Maddie K moment captures something so real and tender about trying to belong while still being yourself. I haven't even seen the show but your reflection on it made me feel protective of her too. Thank you for putting words to a feeling so many of us carry quietly. You’re absolutely right that embarrassment is temporary, but the courage to keep showing up? That’s lasting.

Absolutely! So glad resonated with you - it's great to know we're not alone in feeling this way sometimes.
