The idea that you’re a Misfit (don't fit in, don't belong) is a LIE, no matter how painful your evidence to prove it is or how long you’ve accumulated that evidence. Exposing the lie takes time, and defeating it can be messy, but you can do it. That’s when you transform from Misfit Shame to Outlier Pride.
