Listen "I Drew Her Because I Couldn't Be Her"
Episode Synopsis
"I Drew Her Because I Couldn’t Be Her" is the story of Ari, a quiet girl who sketched a character named Mika during math class — bold, fearless, and everything Ari wished she could be. What started as a doodle became a lifeline: a way to cope with social anxiety, loneliness, and the struggle to belong. Through drawing, Ari created not just characters, but pieces of herself she didn’t yet know how to show. This episode reflects on how creativity becomes therapy, how imaginary people can help us survive real life, and how even the quietest versions of ourselves are worthy of love.Outro:"Light Thought var 1" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/
