Episode Synopsis

What if that unfinished dream isn’t a failure, but a pause with a purpose? In Part Two of this coaching session, Jerrod opens up about his journey toward completing a doctorate in social work, the moment life got in the way, and the internal weight he’s carried ever since. I speak directly to the shame that can come with unfinished goals, the lies we tell ourselves when things don’t go according to plan, and the truth about what it really means to “complete” something. This episode will speak to anyone who’s ever had to stop, shift, or reframe the story they’ve been carrying.The world may reward completion, but God often works in the pause. Your worth is not on hold, just your timeline.Topics I Cover:Why we sometimes link our worth to academic or professional successThe emotional toll of pausing a dream, especially when you’re used to achievementHow shame shows up as identity (and why that’s not the truth)The difference between failure and life simply happeningHow to ask for help - from your school, your network, or even ChatGPTWhy trusting the pause is sometimes the real testWhat to say to yourself when you feel like “an incomplete”This week’s affirmation:“ You are not an incompleter.”Connect with Dr. G: Website Instagram Youtube Facebook X (Twitter)
