What do you do when your friend group leaves you behind? In this honest and relatable episode, our guest shares how being excluded in high school led to something unexpected—two deep, lifelong friendships she might never have formed otherwise. We explore how moments of rejection can redirect us toward real connection, the importance of being open to new opportunities, and the tricky dynamics of group friendships—especially among girls. This conversation is a reminder that while we can’t control everything, we can choose how we respond—and that sometimes, what feels like a closed door is just the start of a better path.
