The Fresh Perspectives Podcast
Some questions don't have clean answers. What do you do when life looks different than you thought it would? How do you take the first step toward a lifelong dream? Who are you now, and how is that different than who you were then?
Fresh Perspectives is for anyone in the middle of becoming something new. Each week, host Rachel Lauren talks with guests who have navigated real transitions, built something from scratch, or changed the way they see the world — and asks them to be honest about how it happened. New episodes every Monday.

What the Knicks' Championship Run Can Teach Us About Showing Up When It's Hard

The Knicks just won the NBA Championship and the way they did it had me inspired.
They trailed by double digits in every single game they won in the finals. They were down 29 points in game four. And they still won. That's not luck. That's a mentality.
In this episode, I'm breaking down what the Knicks' comeback run, and Jalen Brunson's story specifically, can teach us about showing up for our goals when the deficit feels too big, when the world has already written us off, and when quitting would be the easiest thing to do.
Most of us aren't losing. We're just in the fourth quarter.
