🎙️ Episode 5: The Anticipation in Charlotte (Act V – The Finale)
From the “Chapters of the Heart” series on Concepts & Conversations with Coach Bryan Thomas

The wait is over — the moment has finally arrived.

In this gripping and emotional finale, Coach Bryan brings the Anticipation in Charlotte series to its heartfelt conclusion. It’s the early morning hours of July 27, 1997, and 14-year-old Bryan stands at the crossroads of courage and confession — ready to tell the “Tabernacle Girl” how he feels after nearly two years of quiet admiration.

As the hotel grows quiet and time slows to a heartbeat, each footstep brings her closer — 400 feet… 200 feet… 50 feet… until their eyes meet. What follows is the culmination of youthful innocence, unspoken feelings, and the powerful realization that words shape destiny.

This episode is more than a story — it’s a reflection on growth, creativity, and the birth of self-expression. Through memory and emotion, Bryan revisits the moment that awakened the writer within him.

🎧 Tune in to experience the finale of “The Anticipation in Charlotte,” where anticipation meets truth, and a boy’s heart learns the courage to speak.
