## Caption

This week on @Aspire with Emma Grede, I’m sitting down with Sarah Jakes Roberts for a conversation about what it really means to turn your hardest chapter into something that shapes your future. Sarah became a mother as a teenager and spent years navigating shame, identity, and public scrutiny in front of the world. Instead of hiding her story, she chose to speak honestly about it and that decision ultimately changed everything. What followed wasn’t a traditional path. It was a slow build from a blog to a global platform reaching millions of women, with books, conferences, leadership, and a message rooted in purpose, responsibility, and calling. In this episode we get into: ✨ The connection between anger and people-pleasing ✨ What it means to carry “old thoughts” from childhood into adulthood ✨ How pain becomes purpose when you stop running from it ✨ Calling, ambition, and learning to trust what you’ve been entrusted with ✨ Building something meaningful from the chapter most people would erase This conversation is honest, emotional, and deeply grounding  and it stays with you long after it ends. Our episode is out now on @YouTube, @ApplePodcasts, and wherever you get your podcasts 🎙️✨ This episode was pre-recorded before Sarah’s injury. Sending you all of my love, Darling!
