Have you ever felt seen—but not really understood? In this episode, we’re talking about the invisible layers behind what it’s like to be an amputee woman navigating the world.

Inspired by a moment at Lake Nighthorse—where two curious kids asked me what happened to my hands and how I get dressed—I’m reflecting on the quiet strength we carry and the emotional work that goes unseen.

This episode is for the woman who’s ever had to explain herself... or felt like she couldn’t.

Inside this heartfelt conversation, I’m sharing:

💬 The story of a sweet but eye-opening interaction at the lake

🧠 What I wish people really understood about amputee women

🫶 The emotional energy it takes to constantly answer questions

🌱 A reminder that you don’t owe the world your pain to prove your strength

🎧 You deserve to be seen for the full, vibrant, complex person you are. And you don’t have to shrink to fit someone else’s understanding.
