347 – When No One Understands You

347 – What do you do when no one understands you?

Have you ever been with a group of close friends and you share some pretty deep ideas you’ve been thinking about, but then everyone looks at you like you’re crazy.

They have no idea what you’re talking about.

You try to explain, but they’re still clueless, their eyes glaze over, and they go back to discussing with great enthusiasm, something that seems trivial and inconsequential.

The same thing happens with your family.

You share ideas from way down inside of your heart about life or what you think your purpose is and you get those blank stares. Or they say you need to be more practical.

It can be really frustrating when it seems like no one understands you.

Who do you talk to? What do you do? Is there any way not to feel so lonely?

In this episode, you’ll learn

• Why some people will never understand you
• What needs to happen before you find the folks who will understand you
• What you can do to find the people who will understand and be supportive of you.
