If you have the ability to change someone’s life with your story, your message, or your lived experience—and you’re not using it—you might be a SCAM.

SCAM stands for Secretly Carrying A Message.

In this episode, Jarrad Walker challenges the idea that silence is harmless. Many people are trusted, valued, and listened to, yet still withhold the very message they’ve earned the right to speak. Empathy without direction may feel good in the moment, but it often leaves people stuck.

This conversation explores the cost of staying silent, the responsibility that comes with lived experience, and the difference between carrying a message privately and activating it intentionally. Jarrad breaks down the four levels of identity and reveals how people unknowingly sabotage their own growth—and the growth of others—by refusing to unmute their message.

This episode is an invitation to stop hiding, stop downplaying what you carry, and stop scamming yourself.
