About This Podcast
Summary:
Being the Black Sheep is a bold, unapologetic podcast hosted by Janine Stella—self-proclaimed misfit and truth-teller—created for those who’ve always felt like outsiders. It’s a space for fellow black sheep to share the wild, awkward, and unfiltered stories that come from living life on your own terms. With humor, heart, and a little swagger, Janine dives into family drama, questionable choices, and what it really means to embrace your “difficult” personality. Featuring real stories and expert insights, this show is for anyone who’s ever felt misunderstood. If you've been the topic of conversation more than part of it—welcome home. Let’s ruffle some feathers.
