Enough Mediocrity

๐Ÿฆƒโœจ Whoโ€™s sitting at your table this season?
๐Ÿ‘Ÿ๐ŸŽ™๏ธ
With Thanksgiving coming up, itโ€™s easy to think about foodโ€ฆ but what about the "feelings" we keep feeding?
๐Ÿ‘Ÿ๐ŸŽ™๏ธ
Are "shame", "loneliness", "depression", or โ€œnot enoughโ€ still pulling up a chair? Maybe itโ€™s time to say, โ€œYouโ€™re not welcome here anymore.โ€
๐Ÿ‘Ÿ๐ŸŽ™๏ธ
This week on Other Peopleโ€™s Shoes, I talk with Wes Woodson about how to stop accepting mediocrity in how others treat us "and" in how we treat ourselves.
๐Ÿ‘Ÿ๐ŸŽ™๏ธ
We dig into: ๐Ÿฝ๏ธ Letting go of what no longer belongs at your table ๐Ÿง  The power of hearing โ€œitโ€™s not your faultโ€ ๐Ÿชž Why we often tolerate disrespect weโ€™d never dish out to others ๐Ÿ“Œ How to bring real evidence that you "are" enough
๐Ÿ‘Ÿ๐ŸŽ™๏ธ
If youโ€™re hungry for a new kind of wholeness, this oneโ€™s for you.

๐ŸŽ™  Enough Mediocrity

๐Ÿงฉ Season Theme: Hungry
This season explores hunger not just for food, but for belonging, purpose, identity, and healing. Hunger shows us what we’re still carrying and what we keep feeding.

๐Ÿ‘ฃ With Thanksgiving almost here, it’s natural to think about who’ll be gathering around your table. But today’s conversation asks a deeper question: Who have you been allowing to sit at your table that shouldn’t be there anymore?

Are shame, loneliness, depression, or “not enough” still claiming a seat?

Sometimes the most healing words we can hear are: “It’s not your fault.”
But many of us keep serving ourselves the same old, moldy dish called “It’s still your fault.”

My guest today, Wes Woodson, knows that battle well. Wes is a mental health advocate and speaker whose story helps make conversations about anxiety, confidence, and self-worth feel human, honest, and approachable. You can learn more about him here:
