Lauren sits down with Mia, also known as phoodietings, for a candid conversation about queer identity, people-pleasing, and the mental load of hiding who you are. Mia shares how growing up Filipino and Catholic shaped her early experiences, how she came to understand her sexuality later in life, and how creating content helped her build confidence and community. They also get practical, discussing ADHD diagnosis, setting boundaries without guilt, and why authenticity matters in both relationships and content creation.Key TopicsThe origin story of Mia’s @phoodietings InstagramThe DMV Foodie Crew community of creatorsFilipino food and cultureADHD diagnosis in adulthood, including restlessness, trouble focusing, and trying different medicationsMia’s experience growing up in a Catholic home and masking her identityComing out later in life, including Mia’s first crushes, dating women privately, and the relief of finally living authenticallyThe emotional cost of people-pleasing, especially when there’s no queer community or safe outlet to process dating experiencesComing out publicly on social mediaMia’s advice on boundaries, self-trust, and choosing yourself even when fear is presentChapters02:52 Starting with a breathing exercise04:03 Highs and lows of the week, including entrepreneurship dreams and ADHD challenges05:32 What led Mia to seek an ADHD diagnosis as an adult10:04 Mia’s content creator origin story and how phoodietings began11:03 Why Filipino content resonated and the role of food in love and hospitality12:40 Family expectations, Catholic guilt, and early people-pleasing14:12 Coming out later in life and realizing attraction to women15:40 Masking, dressing to fit in, and the emotional strain of hiding identity17:22 Lauren shares her own bisexual identity journey20:59 Family reactions, internalized homophobia, and the path toward acceptance22:23 Mia’s Hinge story and how she met her fiancé25:33 Dating women in secret and what people-pleasing looked like in practice27:24 The loneliness of hiding dating life from family and friends30:54 How podcasts and a solo Miami trip helped Mia prepare to come out32:31 Coming out to close people through Diana Ross’s “I’m Coming Out”34:21 Why Mia chose to come out publicly on social media36:55 Letting go of outside approval and feeling truly happy39:12 The mental health toll of forcing herself into a straight box40:01 Therapy and feeling free42:29 A practical boundary: waiting 24 hours before saying yes44:50 Advice for people afraid to live authenticallyAction itemsTry a 24-hour delay before agreeing to plans or favorsAsk yourself whether a yes is coming from alignment or people-pleasingPost the creative thing, even if it feels cringe at firstIf you know someone who could benefit from listening to this episode, please share it with them.
