Lesson Overview

28.47 – Feeling Awkward During Puberty and Growth: Puberty brings rapid changes that can feel like living in a stranger’s body. Voices deepen, shapes shift, and emotions spike without warning. Everyone moves through this chaos differently, yet most think they’re alone. Remember, awkwardness is universal—it’s the body’s way of catching up to identity. Patience is the key ingredient; forcing maturity or perfection only adds pressure. Focus on what your body enables you to do, not how unpredictable it feels. Humor helps ease discomfort; every adult you know has survived this stage. Confidence builds slowly as you realize change means development, not defect. With time, what feels strange now will become the foundation of your strength and individuality.
