In this heartfelt and empowering episode of Made to Fly, Serena dives into the tender, universal desire to be liked - and why chasing approval often pulls us further from ourselves. Using vivid metaphors and real-life moments, she explores the gap between our true selves and the persona we project, and how narrowing that gap leads to deeper confidence, belonging, and freedom.
With warmth and honesty, Serena breaks down why external validation can never replace the acceptance we withhold from ourselves, and how giving people permission not to like you may be the most liberating shift of all. If you’ve ever bent yourself into shapes that didn’t feel like you, this episode invites you back home to authenticity and self-love.

In this inspiring episode of Made to Fly, Serena sits down with 19-year-old ultramarathon runner and entrepreneur Peter Knowles, whose mindset is anything but ordinary.
Peter shares how he turned adversity into drive—running 101 miles around a track in 27 hours, not for glory, but to test the limits of grit and growth. From selling sweets as a child to feed hundreds through charity, to preparing for a 100-mile run through the Sahara Desert, Peter embodies quiet strength, humility, and purpose beyond his years. This conversation dives deep into resilience, mindset, and redefining what success really means—because as Peter says, “A finish line isn’t a destination—it’s a feeling.”
