🎙  Enough Mediocrity

🧩 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.

👣 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:

💡 Episode Highlights:

  • Who truly belongs at your table and who doesn’t
