<description>&lt;p&gt;Man, you just had to be there… 2024 was one of the hardest years of my career. I had the package, the experience, the work ethic—but when the Gunnery Sergeant board came out, my name wasn’t on it. I felt like I wasn’t good enough. I questioned everything. But instead of letting that moment define me, I made a choice—to keep grinding, to double down, and to make damn sure that when my time came, I was ready.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This episode is for anyone who’s ever been passed over—whether it’s for a promotion, a job, or an opportunity you KNOW you deserved. I break down what that moment felt like, how I bounced back, and the lessons that got me from rejection to selection.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you’ve ever felt overlooked, unappreciated, or like all your hard work wasn’t paying off—this one’s for you. Stay in the race. Your time is coming.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Let our sponsor BetterHelp connect you to a therapist who can support you - all from&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;the comfort of your own home.
