Lonely in a Crowded Feed: Belonging, Social Media, and Becoming

This episode is me trying to figure out what it really means to belong, especially in a world that rewards performance and perfection.

I talk about loneliness (the quiet kind that sneaks up on you even when you’re surrounded by people), the difference between being visible and being known, and why showing up for yourself, flaws and all, is the real act of connection.

There’s some philosophy (Simone Weil, Viktor Frankl, Kierkegaard, you know… casual), some internet culture unpacking, and a Tamagotchi that desperately needs discipline in the middle of it all.

If you’ve been feeling kind of off, kind of disconnected, or just want to feel a little less alone in the mess of figuring it all out: this one’s for you.

Thanks for being here.
