In this episode of Trin Told Me, I’m getting real about fitting in, popularity, and the quiet pressure we all feel to be someone we’re not. I share personal stories (some embarrassing, some healing), along with listener submissions that prove none of us are alone in this experience.

We talk about why the need to belong is so deeply wired into us, how popularity is more of a social illusion than a measure of worth, and why growing out of friendships isn’t a failure—it’s growth. I break down how to spot real friends, how peer pressure often says more about them than you, and why staying true to yourself will always feel better than chasing approval.

There are laughs, a few “wait…that’s so true” moments, and the reminder you might need today: your vibe matters more than fitting in. Your people will find you when you stop shrinking to be accepted.

If you’ve ever felt left out, misunderstood, or like you were trying too hard to belong—this one’s for you
