In this episode, I talk about the power of our expectations—both for ourselves and for others. I share a personal story about T.D. Jakes’ daughter, who overcame significant challenges after becoming a mother at just 13 years old and how she went on to lead her father’s renowned Women’s Empowerment Ministry. This story highlights the importance of seeing beyond someone’s current situation and recognizing their potential. I also explore the duality within us all, as described by John Maxwell—some days, we soar like eagles, while other days, we might feel more like hippos wallowing in the mud. The way we speak to others can have a profound impact on their journey.
