"You can't kill my soul, kill my dream." -Lacuna Coil, "Underdog"
This week's episode was all about the underdog. I talked about the prevalence of Lacuna Coil's music in my playlists and their impact on my outlook on life with ongoing themes of overcoming adversity and harnessing inner strength. From there I shared my story of overcoming physical and mental setbacks ("brain worms") when I played roller derby, and using that experience to not only turn my personal outlook around, but to reframe the term "underdog" as the ULTIMATE strong badass. Finally, I announce the "Patron Saint of Underdogs" segment that will appear in future episodes, where a nominated individual will be featured for fighting through adversity and achieving awesomeness.
