Feeling Out Of Place Then Embracing It

- Once she relaxed, she loved the meal and embraced being the "Queen of Monaco."
Belonging Is A Choice, Not A Dress Code
- Dan and Renée observed that external displays of wealth don't determine a person's intrinsic value or happiness.
- You can choose to belong in any room by reframing the stories you tell yourself.
