Let’s talk about something real, Beauty—eating in public as an amputee. 🍴

The stares. The awkward glances. The moments where you just want to blend in.

In this episode, I’m opening up about my own experience with eating out—what I avoid, what I’ve figured out, and how I’ve learned to feel more confident even when people are watching.

From using a rubber band tool to hold a fork to balancing a slice of pizza on my elbow (yep, really), I’m sharing the real-life tips and mindset shifts that have helped me feel less on display and more at peace.

Because here’s the truth:

You don’t need to prove your ability to anyone.

You’re allowed to take up space.

And even the everyday things—like eating lunch—are part of your becoming. 💛

🎙 In this episode, we talk about:

• My go-to foods when I don’t want to stand out

• The story behind my rubber band tool and how I use it

• How I shifted my mindset about being stared at

• Why we don’t owe anyone a performance—and what to focus on instead

🕊 Whether you’re navigating restaurants, social events, or just a quick meal at the food court, this episode is your reminder:

You are allowed to be here, exactly as you are.
