The Beauty of Being a MOMO: Embracing Your Misfit, Oddball, Maverick, and Outcast Magic
Hey beautiful soul, in our latest Magical Soulutions Podcast, we dove headfirst into a concept that’s incredibly close to my heart: The Beauty of Being a MOMO.
We talked about those labels: Misfit, Oddball, Maverick, Outcast, and how they often carry a sting, hinting at being “wrong” or “less than.” But here at Magical Soulutions, we’re flipping the script. We’re reframing and embracing these words not as deficits, but as signposts pointing to your unique way of seeing and being in the world.
This isn’t about being different for the sake of it. It’s about remembering that your soul didn’t come here to be a copy. It came to be a masterpiece, a one-of-a-kind creation, in its own glorious, slightly off-kilter way. It came to be luminous.
“What if the very parts of you that never fit in… were never meant to?
What if they’re the soul-markers of your magic — not mistakes, but maps?”
Why Your “Different” is By Divine Design
For so long, many of us have tried to fit in, to smooth out our edges, to dim our inherent light. My own journey was no different. From a young age, I felt that persistent internal duality – an extroverted exterior craving belonging, while an introverted, mystical soul yearned for quiet moments with books, crystals and tarot. It was like doing the hokey-pokey with my true self, always putting a foot in only to pull it back out again.
That yearning for acceptance even led me down paths that weren’t authentically mine, attempting to conform in misguided attempts to find belonging. But those experiences always felt hollow, a betrayal of my inner landscape. It took moments of echoing darkness, including considering suicide at a young age, for me to begin seeing my “different” as something more. That aching loneliness carved out space for understanding, empathy, and a fierce desire to ensure no one else felt that same crushing isolation. It became my superpower. And it’s the same for you.
“What if those differences, those quirks, those parts of yourself you’ve been told to hide or minimize, aren’t defects but rather, by Divine Design?”
Think about the strengths woven into each “MOMO” archetype:
Conformity can stifle creativity, limit growth, and keep us trapped. It’s in embracing our differences, in celebrating our unique perspectives, that we fuel evolution, both personally and collectively. It’s the MOMOs who push boundaries, challenge thinking, and ultimately, help create a more beautiful, inclusive, and magical world.
Finding Your MOMO in the Tarot Mirror
To help us reflect on these powerful energies, we looked to the Tarot in the podcast, not as a fortune-telling device, but as a mirror reflecting archetypal energies that live within each of us. These universal patterns offer profound insights for self-reflection.
Archetypes are universal patterns or themes—like the Hero, the Healer, the Rebel—that show up across cultures, stories, and dreams. They speak to something primal and familiar in the human experience.
Think of these archetypes as the wise guides for your inner MOMO:
These archetypes aren’t outside of you; they live within you, waiting for you to recognize and embrace their power.
“Your soul didn’t come here to be a copy, a pale imitation of someone else. It came to be a masterpiece, a one-of-a-kind creation, in its own glorious, slightly off-kilter way.”

Right now, in this moment, give yourself permission to let it breathe.
