Listen "How Frederick Douglass’s Words Changed The World & Why Yours Can Too"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Make It To Midnight, we dive into the life of Frederick Douglass — a man born into slavery who changed the world not with violence, but with words. You'll hear how a single overheard sentence at age 12 sparked a belief that would reshape his future — and how he used language to free not only himself, but generations after him.
We explore:
The moment Douglass realized that words could set him free
His greatest literary weapon: Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass
The science behind belief loops & neuroplasticity
Why the words you say to yourself may be building your future — or burying it
And how to reclaim your voice when the world tries to write your story for you
Thanks for listening and as always MAKE IT TO MIDNIGHT
