Listen Later

Ever wondered what it's like to navigate the glittering yet turbulent waters of celebrity and reality TV while striving to stay true to your own story? How does one maintain authenticity when every move is magnified, every choice scrutinized, in the high-stakes world of public life? It's a journey that demands a delicate balance between personal truth and public persona.

In this episode, Dr. Scott dives into these questions with Rachel Lindsay – an author, attorney, and a trailblazer in the realm of media. Known for breaking new ground as the first Black lead on 'The Bachelorette,' Rachel's journey extends far beyond the television screen. Her story is one of navigating fame, forging a path of self-discovery, and using her platform to inspire and lead with purpose.

Together, they’ll explore the challenges of living life in the public eye, the pressures and joys of being a role model, and Rachel’s evolution from reality TV star to a powerful voice in literature and advocacy. Prepare for a heartfelt and revealing discussion, as we celebrate the strength it takes to be a 'gently used human' in a world captivated by celebrity.

Topics We Break Down:

  • Keeping up with the pressure of fame
  • The power of purposefulness.
  • Letting go of caution. 
  • Reality TV and the psychological impact of living a performative life. 
  • How being on a public platform impacts mental and emotional health.
