Why do so many of us — even the most accomplished, grateful, and faith-filled — still wrestle with feeling like we’re not enough?

In this deeply personal solo episode, Coach Chris Wilson opens up about the quiet struggle of inadequacy — how it’s shaped by childhood wounds, difficult relationships, societal pressure, and spiritual disconnection. He reflects on his own upbringing, including past traumas and a verbally abusive parent, and how those early seeds of doubt can follow us into adulthood.

Chris explores the emotional weight of regret, the trap of comparison, and the idols we unknowingly cling to that pull us away from our true identity in Christ. With Scripture as his guide, he reminds listeners that our worth is not defined by the world — it’s found in the love of a perfect God who created us strong by design.

If you’ve ever looked in the mirror and thought, “I’m not enough,” this episode is for you. You’re not alone — and you’re more loved than you realize.
