Look to your right…

Now Look to your left…

The ending to that saying often goes a certain way, but in this conversation with Dr. Jasmin Goodman it’s ending differently. College is also about who sits next to you and most students are missing the moments.

Are you sitting in silence instead of connecting before classes start?

Are you making sure you don’t make eye contact with a classmate on campus?

From HBCUs to PWIs, Gen Z to adjunct faculty, this conversation breaks down why fit beats prestige, why community is non-negotiable, and why intention changes everything.

“You do everything right. You graduate. You get the role.

And then you realize… nobody told you this part.

In this episode, Chris McGinley talks about leadership, loneliness, power, and what success really feels like after the applause fades. If you’ve ever questioned whether achievement is supposed to feel like this, you need this conversation.”

HBCUs build confidence, community, and excellence. But what happens when students leave the cocoon and enter systems where their expertise is questioned on sight?

This episode raises a necessary challenge. Preparation isn’t just academic. It’s emotional, psychological, and structural.

Let’s talk about it honestly.
