5 Min Pocket Pep Talks- Listen If You Were Not Invited or Overlooked · The Nadia Chapman Show

• 0:00
  You're listening to 5-Minute Pocket Pep Talks. I'm Nadia Chapman,
• 0:04
  and this one is for the soul who feels forgotten, left out, overlooked, unchosen.
• 0:11
  Maybe something happened recently, an event, an invite, or a conversation that
• 0:17
  you were not part of, and now that ache in your chest is whispering, maybe I don't matter.
• 0:24
  Let's pause, and let me speak to that part of you right now.
• 0:27
  There's a very specific pain that comes with feeling left out.
• 0:31
  It's very quiet, but it's deep. It's not always loud or dramatic,
• 0:36
  but it cuts in ways other heartbreaks don't.
• 0:39
  Because it's not just that you weren't there, it's that you weren't thought of.
• 0:44
  They did not include you. They didn't text you. They didn't say your name.
• 0:49
  And your brain takes that absence and it turns into proof that you're not wanted.
• 0:54
  I know that spiral. It says, they don't need me. They don't like me.
• 0:59
  They don't see me. I must not matter.
• 1:02
  Maybe if I was more fun, more cool, more this, more that, I'll be enough for them.
• 1:07
  And that thought, that one that say, I don't belong anywhere, is a lie.
• 1:12
  A painful, persistent, well-practiced lie, but a lie still.
• 1:18
  Let me offer you a truth that you may not have heard before.
• 1:22
  You can feel left out by people and still belonging deeply in this world.
• 1:27
  And you can be excluded from a
• 1:29
  moment, a situation and still be absolutely irreplaceable in your purpose.
• 1:34
  Because being left out doesn't mean that you're not enough.
• 1:38
  It often means that you're just not small enough to fit into that space anymore.
• 1:44
  What if this exclusion isn't a rejection, but redirection?
• 1:49
  And what if that pain is pointing you back to yourself, back to your values,
• 1:54
  back to that space that feels safe, back to the relationships that don't require
• 1:59
  you to hustle for your worth.
• 2:01
  See, sometimes you're not invited because you were never supposed to be there in the first place.
• 2:07
  Not because you're not worthy, but because that space couldn't hold the fullest of who you are becoming.
• 2:15
  You're not too sensitive. You're not too much. I don't want you to think that
• 2:19
  you are weird or you are awkward, unlikable.
• 2:22
  You're simply evolving out of places, out of certain spaces that don't match
• 2:28
  your frequency anymore.
• 2:30
  That's it. And that can feel very uncomfortable and scary, as a matter of fact.
• 2:35
  But let me tell you this, you're not here to force yourself into rooms where
• 2:39
  your presence is tolerated.
• 2:41
  You are here to create, to attract, and notice those spaces where you're seen without shrinking.
• 2:49
  Where you are loved without auditioning, and where you are celebrated and not edited.
• 2:55
  And those spaces, ah, well, they exist, even if you haven't found them yet,
• 3:01
  and even if they're small.
• 3:03
  One person who truly sees you is better than 20 who barely notice when you're gone.
• 3:10
  So today, instead of asking, why didn't they include me? try asking,
• 3:16
  what do I deserve from people I let into my world?
• 3:20
  You're not here to chase inclusion.
• 3:22
  You are here to walk into your truth until you find the people who say, hey, there you are.
• 3:29
  I've been waiting for you all day. I've been waiting for someone just like you.
• 3:32
  Your people are out there, but they don't gather in spaces where you have to
• 3:37
  shrink and you've got to hide or overgive just to be tolerated.
• 3:42
  So hold your energy sacred, stay kind, stay open, and stay rooted because you're not too much.
• 3:50
  You're just too real for the wrong room. And that is power.
• 3:55
  This has been your five-minute pocket pep talk.
• 3:59
  If you've ever felt invisible, come back to this.
• 4:02
  You were never meant to fit everywhere. You were just meant to belong deeply, somewhere true.
• 4:08
  And you will. You always do. I'm proud of you for feeling this and still choosing to move forward.
• 4:14
  You are not forgotten.
• 4:17
  You are needed here. Thanks for listening.
