In this episode of Journeys of Not So Ordinary People, guest Jalen Stubbs joins hosts Dr. Dave Peltz and Dr. Joe Hamlett to discuss the importance and impact of “putting yourself out there” in personal and professional development. Jalen, a production assistant at NBC Washington, shares his journey from a student with a passion for storytelling to a thriving media professional. He emphasizes that confidence, intentional networking, dressing for success, and initiating conversations—even with influential individuals—can open unexpected doors. Key insights include the idea that it’s not just who you know, but who knows you, and that showing up with purpose and professionalism can create lasting impressions. The episode encourages listeners to overcome self-doubt, view rejection as part of the process, and cultivate meaningful relationships that extend beyond surface-level interactions.
