Tribe Today
You know the feeling — being in a room full of people and still feeling like the only one of your kind. The kid who preferred classical music when everyone else had the radio on. The adult building a career in spaces that weren’t built for them.
That feeling has a name here: your Vivaldi Moment. And it’s exactly what brought this tribe together.
GurlSeeksTribe is a podcast and community for the people who’ve felt “othered” seeking others just like them. Why? Because we believe those are often the people with the most to offer. Real conversations. IRL and virtual events rooted in Brooklyn. A village being built one story at a time.
Why GurlSeeksTribe?
Three pillars of authentic connection and belonging
🎙️
Authentic Stories
Real conversations about feeling “othered” and alone. No filters, no pretense, just honest stories from real people.
💬
Real Community
Connect with people who get it. Your experiences, your struggles, your wins, they’ve gone through it — and they all matter here.
✨
Your Space
A sanctuary where being different is celebrated, not just tolerated. Bring your whole authentic self and find those who’ll love you for it.

Meet Your Host
Hi! I’m Alja, and I created GurlSeeksTribe because I know what it’s like to feel “othered.”
From being the kid who preferred Vivaldi to the current Top 40, then the adult building a career in spaces where I rarely saw myself reflected – I’ve spent years navigating the space between belonging and being different.
After 156 episodes of navigating adult life on Adult-ish (80,000+ downloads), I realized something: we don’t just need content — we need community. We need a tribe.
That’s why I’m building this space for all of us who’ve ever felt like outsiders looking in.
Your story belongs here.
