In this raw and real episode of Let It Be: Legacy, we’re going to war with the four most common dream killers — and guess what? They’re not always external. Sometimes the greatest resistance isn't the economy or the haters… it's you.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, overlooked, or like time is passing you by while your dream sits on pause — this episode is your wake-up call. Because you were born to build, lead, and leave something behind that outlives you. But first, you’ve got to confront what’s been standing in your way.

4. You (Yes, You) – Self-sabotage. Procrastination. Perfectionism. Fear of success. Learn how to get out of your own way.

In this impactful episode of Let It Be: Legacy, we’re getting real about money—not for Wall Street, but for Main Street.

This one is for the everyday man: the husband, the father, the grinder, the one trying to keep his home together and his head above water. We're pulling back the curtain on financial literacy, exposing what schools never taught us and what society never expected us to master—yet we must.

You’re not behind—you’re just now getting the right information.

You are not a slave to your bank account, your past, or your mistakes.

You’re called to steward, to provide, and to build legacy.

Welcome to Let It Be: Legacy — the podcast where we talk purpose, power, and provision for men building a life that outlives them.

In this critical episode, we’re going straight to the heart of something that’s destroying families, futures, and faith: uncontrolled emotions.

🛑 From domestic violence…

🛑 To public meltdowns…

🛑 To lives lost over one bad decision…

We’re seeing it happen every day—especially in the Black community, where too many men were never taught how to feel, only how to fight or shut down. We’re bleeding from wounds that were never treated. But that ends today.

1. Name It Before You React

Learn how to identify what you’re really feeling before it turns into a reaction you’ll regret.

2. Heal Your Unspoken Hurt

Understand how childhood trauma, father wounds, and emotional suppression shape your current responses—and how to finally break the cycle.

3. Change Your Environment

Discover how your surroundings, social media feed, and friend circle might be fueling your emotional instability.

4. Make a Plan for Peace

Build spiritual and emotional disciplines that help you respond like a man of purpose—not a man in pain.

• Proverbs 29:11 – “A fool gives full vent to his spirit, but a wise man quietly holds it back.”
• Psalm 147:3 – “He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.”
• 1 Corinthians 15:33 – “Bad company corrupts good character.”
• Matthew 5:9 – “Blessed are the peacemakers.”

• Grew up without a father or emotional role model
• Struggles to express feelings without anger
• Has ever scared himself with his own reactions
• Wants to stop the generational cycle of silence, rage, and regret
• Desires to be emotionally strong and spiritually sound

This isn’t about judgment—it’s about healing.

Because if you don’t control your emotions… they will control you.

And it could cost you your wife, your kids, your career, or your calling.

But you can take it back—starting now.
