I've been called an "old soul" for as long as I can remember, but for years it felt less like a compliment and more like a reminder that I never quite fit in.

In this episode, I'm talking about what it was like growing up feeling different—being the kid who wanted tea at The Peninsula, spent recess in knitting club, obsessed over interior design before most people cared about decorating their bedrooms, and always seemed a few steps ahead emotionally. I share how being deeply observant shaped my friendships, dating life, career, and mental health, and why I spent so many years wishing I could just be like everyone else.

We talk about loneliness, sensitivity, overthinking, finding your people, and the moment I finally stopped trying to outrun the parts of myself that made me different. Because while being an old soul can feel isolating, it can also be one of the greatest gifts you'll ever receive.

If you've ever felt out of sync with the people around you, this one's for you.
