Have you ever felt like you had to shrink yourself just to fit in? Like the real you was too loud, too quiet, too different—or just too much?<br /><br />Exactly You: Unleashing the Roar of Authenticity is your space to reclaim your voice, shed the masks, and finally feel seen. Hosted by Emily Rios—creator of the “A Voice Like Mine” blog—this podcast is born from a deeply personal journey of hiding, breaking, and finally becoming.<br /><br />Raised in a conservative Midwest town, Emily spent years silencing her style, emotions, and truth. Everything changed when she found inspiration in the unapologetic artistry of Billie Eilish. Billie's rawness and the quote “I’ve always done whatever I want and always been exactly who I am” didn’t just resonate—they ignited a fire. That fire led Emily to the Victories Vibes movement and its life-altering mantra:<br />✨ “Always be exactly you.”<br /><br />In every episode, Emily dives deep with creators, thinkers, outsiders, and quiet rebels who dared to be themselves—and found power in the process.<br /><br />🎧 What to Expect:<br />Real stories of breaking free from the pressure to conform<br /><br />Emotional honesty around anxiety, identity, and creativity<br /><br />Love for dark aesthetics, bold styles, and weird passions<br /><br />How art, poetry, music, and community become healing tools<br /><br />Inspiration from icons like Billie Eilish and movements like Victories Vibes<br /><br />Whether you’ve been the quiet one in the back or the loud one no one understood—this podcast is for you.<br /><br />Because authenticity isn’t something you put on—<br />It’s who you are.<br /><br />So turn up the volume on your truth.<br />It’s time to roar.<br /><br />https://victories-vibes.com/collections/billie-eilish-always-be-exactly-you
