Uncommon Lessons from a Common Crash

Why did one silent cashier throw off my whole day?

In this episode of the Crash Test Mama Podcast, we’re talking about the kind of moment that feels small… but hits deep. I wanted to be seen. Acknowledged. Validated. And when that didn’t happen, I found myself trying to “train” a stranger in the art of being polite.

But what if the real lesson wasn’t about being seen — but about learning to see?

This week’s Uncommon Lesson is about:

• Taking on energy that doesn’t belong to you

• The double standard of demanding grace while withholding it

• How God sees us — even when we’re petty in aisle 7

✨ If you’ve ever spiraled over someone else’s silence… ✝️ If you’ve ever forgotten to offer what you expect… 🛠️ And if you’re ready to lead from presence, not performance — this one’s for you.
