More Than a Game-Takeaways From the Superbowl with Dr. Derrick Burgess

It’s easy to believe that some things are meant for others—those who appear more qualified, more prepared, or more deserving. But the reality is, no one is more deserving of growth, joy, and success than anyone else. The doors that seem closed may not be locked; they may only require the courage to push them open.

There are gifts within each of us that are meant to be shared. Talents that were never meant to be hidden. The world is filled with places where those abilities belong, waiting to be used in ways that haven’t even been imagined yet. The only thing standing in the way is the belief that they don’t.

Stepping into more isn’t just about achieving a goal or reaching a new milestone. It’s about shifting perspective—seeing possibility where there once was hesitation, recognizing that every challenge is also an invitation to rise. Growth isn’t just for the people who seem ready; it’s for anyone willing to take the first step.

The path forward doesn’t require perfection—just a willingness to believe that more is meant for us. And when that belief takes root, everything begins to change.

In this episode, I share my unforgettable first-time experience at the Super Bowl—an event that’s so much more than just a game. From witnessing history to discovering unexpected career opportunities, this trip opened my eyes to the power of stepping into new spaces. Tune in for key takeaways, inspiration, and a reminder that the opportunities you seek may be bigger than you ever imagined!

"There are things you wanna do, but you don’t because you question if you deserve something that big." - Dr. Derrick Burgess
