Episode 122: When Plans Fall Through

Sometimes, life doesn’t go as planned—and tonight’s episode is proof of that. JD was set to have a guest on the show, but when they didn’t show up, it created the perfect opportunity to explore a topic we all face: what do you do when things don’t go as planned? In this solo episode, JD gets personal about moments when plans fell apart and how he found the silver lining. We discuss the importance of resilience, creative problem-solving, and how setbacks often teach us lessons we didn’t know we needed. Plus, we answer a listener’s #AskABlackMan question: How do you manage when you offer suggestions to aging parents, and it’s met with negativity? This relatable topic leads to an honest and thoughtful discussion about navigating family dynamics as an adult. Don’t miss this candid conversation about turning life’s curveballs into growth opportunities.
