Stevie: 我一直过着双面生活，在学校和生活中扮演着不同的角色，这让我感到筋疲力尽。我一直渴望能够放松并做真实的自己，但这个夏天我不得不去夏令营，这让我感到非常沮丧。我不想扮演各种角色，我只想做我自己，一个拥有翅膀，可以飞翔的女王。 在夏令营里，我不得不隐藏我的真实身份，就像在学校一样。我努力融入集体，但内心深处却渴望被理解和接纳。我与Sophie建立了友谊，她理解我，并鼓励我做真实的自己。 最终，在夏令营的最后一天，我鼓起勇气，穿着我的翅膀，扮演了我最真实的自己——Feronia的女王。我战胜了内心的恐惧，获得了其他营员的认可和赞赏。我意识到，做真实的自己才是最重要的，即使别人不理解，我也应该勇敢地做自己。 Stevie的父母: 由于我丈夫在大学获得了一个暑期研究职位，我们不得不让孩子们去夏令营。我们知道Stevie喜欢编故事和角色扮演，所以我们认为戏剧夏令营可能适合他。我们也看到了他在后院玩耍，并意识到他拥有丰富的创造力。我们希望他能在这个过程中找到乐趣，并学习与他人相处。 当我们发现Stevie在夏令营中感到不快乐时，我们尽力支持他。我们鼓励他做真实的自己，并告诉他，无论他做什么选择，我们都会支持他。我们希望他能找到自信，并勇敢地表达自己的想法。 Sophie: 我去年参加过这个夏令营，我知道他们会玩这种破冰游戏，所以我准备了很多以S开头的词。我看到Stevie在游戏中感到不自在，所以我主动帮助他，并和他一起吃午饭。我发现我们有很多共同点，并邀请他来我家玩。 我欣赏Stevie的真实和勇敢，并鼓励他做真实的自己。我发现他拥有与众不同的魅力，并愿意和他一起分享快乐和时光。 Allie: 作为夏令营的辅导员，我努力创造一个包容和友好的环境，让孩子们能够自由地表达自己。我注意到Stevie在扮演一些角色时感到不自在，所以我尝试给他安排一些更适合他的角色。 在夏令营的最后一天，Stevie的表演让我印象深刻。他展现了非凡的创造力和表演天赋，并赢得了其他营员的认可。我为他的成长和进步感到高兴，并希望他能够继续保持自信和勇敢。

Today we're doing a throwback episode to one of our favorites from the early days of Stories Podcast. Stevie is disappointed when he finds out he’ll have to go to camp this summer. He thought he’d finally have a chance to relax and be himself, but now he’ll have to go on living a “double life”, just like he does during the school year. It’s exhausting! Will this summer be the catastrophe that he’s imagining, or will it finally be the one where Stevie gets his wings?
