Ep 13 - The Job Fit

Ep 13 - The Job Fit

In this episode of Still Standing Strong, we dive into the idea of “job fit” — and how being in the wrong environment can slowly drain your energy, confidence, peace, and identity without you even realizing it. Sometimes it doesn’t happen all at once. It happens over time. You adapt. You normalize stress. You convince yourself that surviving is the same thing as living. This episode explores what happens when you finally look in the mirror and ask yourself if you were meant for more. We talk about fear, growth, risk, resilience, and the uncomfortable reality that many people never achieve what they truly want because they’re too afraid to step into the unknown.You can’t live life on the edge while being afraid to fall.At some point, you have to jump and see what you’re capable of. The episode also touches on personal experiences, how difficult seasons can change you, and how adversity can create a mindset that pushes you to expect more from life — not less. Maybe the life you want is waiting on the other side of one honest decision.

Ep 12 - The Journey

After stepping away for a while, Still Standing Strong returns with a different perspective. In this episode, we talk about the pressure of chasing success, the reality of walking into a role that wasn’t what it seemed, and what happens when life forces you to slow down and reevaluate who you are outside of achievement, titles, and expectations. The episode also explores a powerful story about tragedy, perspective, and hidden purpose — leading to one important question:“What is your rock?” Sometimes the hardest moments in our lives are also the moments that reveal what was happening beneath the surface all along. This episode marks the beginning of a new direction for the podcast: less polished, more honest, and more focused on real conversations about growth, struggle, resilience, purpose, and becoming stronger through life’s unexpected turns.

Ep 11 - The Fraction of Your Reaction

WELCOME TO A NEW SEASON Sometimes the only thing we can control is how we respond, and even that is a fraction of the event that happened. This episode dives into the power of reacting less — giving only a fraction of your reaction to moments that don’t go your way. From a missed flight that turned into a beautiful memory, to staying grounded through a job loss, it’s a reminder that calm often changes the outcome more than control ever could. Inspired by The Let Them Theory by Mel Robbins — and a new twist called The Let It Theory — this week explores how mindset, patience, and perspective shape every situation we face

Ep 10 - The Myth of More

We work harder, chase promotions, buy houses, collect milestones — all in search of “enough.” But what if more never feels like more? In this episode suggested by a listener, I share stories and reflections about striving, achievement, and the quiet emptiness that can follow. Let’s talk about why “enough” is rarely out there… and how to start finding it here.

Special Episode - Remembering Love and Appreciation

Sometimes the most important thing you can do is pause and appreciate the people and moments right in front of you. In this emergency episode, I share why appreciation can’t wait — and why it might be the antidote to so much of what weighs us down. If you’ve been running on empty, take ten minutes with me to remember what matters most. Remembering those who lost their lives on 9/11, and ensuring we don't take the life we have for granted. Love one another
