🚫 blocked from the pods

I'm new here, maybe it's me. I've been on here less than a week, still trying to figure it all out. Some of you may have been in my position when you first arrived here. I was informed it was okay to go listen in on the pods. I don't have to speak it's open for everyone. I would actually love to speak. I have a lot to say, l, I'm just a little shy and need to warm up, ya know? Anyway, a couple times i tried, I haven't been able to join in on a pod. Is it me? Or it's a block from everyone? I honestly don't know, and I would like responses if you know a thing or two. I'm not going to take it personally. I guess I'm trying to see if this is like a "cliques" app. We're human some of us have that can't sit with US mentality. Like I said, I could be all wrong!!!!
