Back to the Track: Confronting High School Shadows in the Athletic Hall of Fame |Ep. 118

In this introspective episode of "Just Meg," join Meg as she takes a poignant journey back to the high school track that once defined her. When her track team receives the prestigious honor of being inducted into the Athletic Hall of Fame, Meg grapples with the anxiety and panic of revisiting a chapter in her life she thought she had left behind. Wrestling with the fear of judgment, she almost lets it overshadow the opportunity to celebrate with old teammates. However, Meg's decision to face those apprehensions becomes a catalyst for a personal revelation – that the opinions of strangers from her past no longer hold power over her present. Through humor, vulnerability, and a dose of self-discovery, Meg shares how confronting the echoes of high school allowed her to heal and realize that everyone, even those in the Hall of Fame, carries their own awkward moments. Join Meg on this relatable and empowering journey as she unpacks the universal truth that what others think about us no longer defines who we are today.
