Listen "The Flood That Stayed"
Episode Synopsis
Sometimes the events that shape us are over in minutes — but the impact lasts for years. In this Friday Drop, DrEG3 shares a personal story about a flooded laundry room and how it rewired his habits, then expands the metaphor to explore the floods of emotions and circumstances that leave us living like the water is still rising. With humor and reflection, he challenges listeners to notice where they’re still acting like the storm hasn’t passed.
What You'll Hear:
Some moments leave a mark that changes our habits long after the event.
“Protective reflexes” can keep us stuck instead of safe.
Floods can be literal or emotional — grief, loss, betrayal, or overwhelm.
Past events can still dictate our present if we don’t release them.
Sometimes the real work is trusting that it’s over.
Favorite Line
“Sometimes the work isn’t learning to survive the flood — you’ve already done that. Sometimes the work is learning to trust that it’s over.”
Reflection Question
What flood are you still living in, long after the floors have dried?
Final Thought
The flood may have been real, but it doesn’t have to define how you move forever.
And, as always, I love you much!
