A Tall Girl's Podcast

Y’all we completed our first week of college!! And even though this first week went really well, I still somehow found a way to talk negatively to and about myself. I’d beat myself up for not making friends fast enough or I wasn’t transitioning into the new year seamlessly enough or I didn’t complete my work fast enough. And it’s like why??? It’s literally the first week. It’s SUPPOSED to be chaot...

Ok SO, today, we are talking about CRINGING and cringing at ourselves because let's face it, we've all cringed at ourselves before. At some point in time, you’ve looked at a picture or a video of yourself and literally felt so disgusted by it LOL. And that’s what I love about this topic…No matter what age you are, no matter what height you are, no matter whatever features you have or whoever you a...

I have a question for you: Do you ever feel dissatisfied with your height? Do you often compare your height to other people’s heights (in a bad way)? Do you not feel comfortable about your height or believe that you shouldn’t be at the height you're currently at? Okay, I realize that that was more than one question lol, but if you answered yes to two or three of them, then you may have this partic...

Today, we’re talking about thoughtless comments on our height. Notice how I put the word ‘thoughtless’ before ‘comments’ in the title of this episode. Because people don’t like to think. Especially before they speak. That doesn’t necessarily include you. Or me. We’re different. We’re smart LOL. I’m just saying that there are people out there who will make comments about your height or your body wi...

Today is indeed a SPECIAL day; we have a guest! We’re joined by mom, model, marketing consultant, seamstress, and fellow tall girl (wow she does it all lol) Rachel Willingham! Let’s face it, being a tall woman can be hard. Growing up, I’m sure you’ve felt “TOO….everything”. Too tall. Too big. Too clumsy. Too much. It just makes us feel like we need to make ourselves smaller just to feel comfortabl...

This episode is actually inspired by one of my Reels that I posted over on Instagram. It went something along the lines of “wear what you want to wear. I don’t care how tall or how short you are, wear the heels, wear the short shorts, wear whatever it is you want to wear. PERIOD.” And I think by all of the comments that I received, this video really resonated with you guys lol. So, I figured why n...

I have really been enjoying alone time for the past few weeks. Like going to visit new places by myself, going out to eat by myself, going on walks by myself. And I think that the TikTok and YouTube algorithms are picking up on that because all I’m seeing on my feed is romanticizing alone time. It's a little creepy that they know what I’m up to, but I think with the changing seasons coming, romant...

Today we’re talking about standing out. And this is probably one of the biggest reasons why tall people find it annoying to be tall. And this idea doesn’t even necessarily have to do with height. This could range from your hair to your style or clothing to your makeup to even your race. Just any feature that makes you extremely unique from the rest. And I can understand this fear. I’ve been there....

Summer is officially here y’all (I mean like it's BEEN here), and that means transitioning into summer mode. Yes, I studied abroad for like a month, but quite frankly it felt like an extension of the school year because I still had classes and homework and exams. I’m glad that’s done and over with, especially because school gives so much unnecessary busy work. But I also find that I have a lot of...

As you can tell by the title, I am back home. Officially. Once again. After an entire month. Of living a literal dream. I don’t know how to feel about it honestly. I’m excited because I get to see all of my friends and I can get back into a normal routine and NOT TAKE ANY CLASSES FOR A COUPLE WEEKS. But then I’m also gonna miss that Italy weather and being able to go to a different country every w...

Soooo, I went to Switzerland... You may be thinking, of all places, Switzerland????? Yes, hear me out lol. I actually have a cousin who lives in Switzerland and before I even went on this trip, my father kept telling me that I HAD to visit her. I mean, think about it, when am I ever going to be this close to her again? So, I took the opportunity. I told my dad to give me her phone number, which he...

As you can tell by the title, I’ve had quite the weekend. But before I get into that, I just wanna share that I finished my midterms not too long ago?? I’m halfway through this program?? ALREADY????? (just for context, I'm currently studying abroad in Italy for the month of June) I’m sad but not too sad, if that even makes any sense. I like being able to travel to different places, take this class...

If you’re new here or you haven’t listened to my most recent episodes, I am in Italy for the next few weeks for a study abroad program. It’s been about a week and a half since I’ve been here, and boy, am I having THE TIME OF MY LIFE. And I’m extremely exhausted. Do you know that video that’s like ‘no sleep, bus, club, another club, another club, another club, plane…’?? That’s exactly how I’ve been...

I’m just gonna cut to the chase; as you can tell by the title, I am in Italy. Like right now. Like physically in Italy. What the heck???? This is so unreal. But I’m not here to vacation though (unfortunately). I’m here to study abroad at one of the universities and I’m taking a Global Brand Management course. And this course credit transfers back to my school, so it will indeed impact my GPA. Mean...

A few days ago, I visited my high school. Again. Yes, I’m one of those who, even after 3 years, still visit their high school. But what can I say? Even though a lot of bad, borderline traumatic events happened there, I still consider it my safe space…for the most part. When I’m in the right offices with the right teacher(s) and right staff, I feel better. But anyways, it was during this visit to m...

Let's face it...we all get scared to do things. Especially the big things. The things that are outside of our comfort zone. And I'm right there with ya. Now that summer's here (sun's out, buns out ahA), there a lot of changes that are coming my way and boy, am I TERRIFIED. I genuinely can't stop thinking to myself "what if I fail?" or "what if I look stupid?" and it's so overwhelming dude. But som...

Alright y'all, I made someone mad. Not like MAD mad. Just aggravated, agitated, irritated. I didn't even do it intentionally :/ So, you know how you’re in a group of people and you vibe with most of them (aka you’re cool with them), but there’s just that one person or those 2 people that are a little sus? Like every time you talk, breathe, or exist, they just seem irritated? That’s exactly what ha...

Can you believe that one of my classes actually inspired this episode? That's cray... Growing up as a tall girl, I would always slouch because I didn't want to appear 'too tall'. At first, I believed it was so I could 'fit in' but in reality, I started to believe that I didn't deserve to take up space. And that makes me sad because I held myself back from being the person that I wanted to be back...

Today we are talking about good-ol' self-doubt . Ya know that feeling when there's something you REALLLLYYYY wanna do, but in the back of your mind, you're like "I'm not good enough to do that" or "I can't be like that"? Yup, that's her. Good-ol' self-doubt . It's normal to feel it sometimes. I argue that that's healthy actually. It gives us a chance to reflect on our thoughts and actions. But whe...

Welcome or welcome back to A Tall Girl’s Podcast! So glad that you’re here with me on this fine day ;) I feel like it’s time for a much-needed life update. We’re about 5 months into 2023. FIVE WHOLE MONTHS. That’s almost halfway through the year and so much has happened and so much MORE is going to happen, so I figured I’d fill you guys in. Tune in to the full episode to hear updates about my post...

We're about a week into being 21 years old, and boy do I feel LIKE TRASH. Lol, not really something you expect to hear from someone who just came off their birthday weekend, right? I don't know. They say that your 20s are one of the most intense periods of your life. Which I can understand. There were so many highs and lows, ups and downs, and I've only been in my 20s for a year. One year. Absolut...

We are back y'all for the first ever episode of me BEING 21. WTF?? Time flies bro. Time really flies. Hence why every single birthday at this point has to be iconic. It has to be a movie. It has to be a 12/10. Starting now. So y'all are probably thinking, was this birthday iconic, a movie, a 12/10? You gotta tune in to this episode to find out ;) Let's stay connected: https://linktr.ee/atallgirlsp...

Another episode of Tall Girl Reacts to Tall Girl Problems? Insane! Actually no not really lol. If you're new here, Tall Girl Reacts to Tall Girl Problems is a series here on this podcast where I, a tall girl, react to tall girl problems posts from 1975 Tumblr (ok maybe i'm exaggerating here lol) and determine whether or not they're actually something we experience. We've got 14 parts up to this po...

We are back with another episode of A Tall Girl's Podcast! So glad that you're here! What a week it's been...let's just get straight into it; I've been in my feels. Yes, girl. IN MY FEELS. Just trying to put myself out there and make connections and make the most of my college experience. But it's so HARD. Tune in to the full episode for more. Let's stay connected: https://linktr.ee/atallgirlspodc...

Listen, it's okay to put SOME pressure on yourself. That's how you step out of your comfort. How you grow. How you become better. But too much is a fat no-no. Setting unrealistic expectations and not giving ourselves a chance to take a step back, congratulate ourselves for our hard work, and TAKE A BREAK is only going to cause burnout and resentment towards ourselves. And we don't want that. It's...
