What does it take to stay motivated when life does not go as planned?
In this episode of Campus Chronicles, Brooke Young speaks with Kalli Gregory, a student, artist, and advocate whose story redefines what it means to persevere. Kalli is a senior studying Neuroscience with a minor in Psychology at Bowling Green State University. She is also the founder of Trent’s Triumph, a nonprofit initiative inspired by her brother’s journey with cerebral palsy, and the owner of Kalli’s Creative Corner, a custom portrait and card service celebrating creativity and compassion.
Her path to a degree has been anything but traditional, taking seven years instead of four, but it is a journey filled with heart, purpose, and resilience. From caring for her nana and navigating COVID setbacks to balancing advocacy, academics, and art, Kalli shares how staying grounded in her why kept her going.
You will learn:
- Why your path does not have to look like anyone else’s
- How to turn personal challenges into platforms for change
- Simple ways to balance service, school, and self-care
- The importance of journaling for emotional health and focus
- Kalli’s top three lessons for students: do not compare, stay motivated, and lead with heart

to thrive in university.
21
00:00:50,666 --> 00:00:53,708
Hallie, you are a busy bee with all of
22
00:00:53,708 --> 00:00:55,916
the different amazing, incredible
23
00:00:55,916 --> 00:00:58,833
advocacy work that you do while still
24
00:00:58,833 --> 00:01:01,916
being a university student and doing a
25
00:01:01,916 --> 00:01:04,041
bunch of extracurriculars that I know
26
00:01:04,041 --> 00:01:04,916
we're gonna get into.
27
00:01:05,250 --> 00:01:08,000
But before we dive into all of that, what
28
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:09,958
is your Campus Chronicles story?
29
00:01:11,041 --> 00:01:15,333
So I have a very unique path to obtaining
30
00:01:15,333 --> 00:01:16,416
my bachelor's degree.
31
00:01:17,291 --> 00:01:18,916
Historically, it's a four year degree,
32
00:01:19,458 --> 00:01:21,791
but it's taken me seven years in order to
33
00:01:21,791 --> 00:01:23,958
see the end of the line for graduation.
34
00:01:25,208 --> 00:01:26,916
I have not given up and
35
00:01:26,916 --> 00:01:28,166
I've kept pushing through.
36
00:01:28,708 --> 00:01:30,833
My nana, my sophomore year of college,
37
00:01:31,375 --> 00:01:34,583
she became very ill and I wanted to take
38
00:01:34,583 --> 00:01:36,250
care of her and my family did too.
39
00:01:36,583 --> 00:01:37,791
So we did everything in our
40
00:01:37,791 --> 00:01:39,125
power to keep her at our house.
41
00:01:39,541 --> 00:01:42,083
But that meant me focusing a lot of my
42
00:01:42,083 --> 00:01:45,000
time on her and I would stay up all night
43
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:46,875
long and I would help her during the
44
00:01:46,875 --> 00:01:48,333
middle of the night and I would go to
45
00:01:48,333 --> 00:01:49,458
school in 20 minutes of sleep.
46
00:01:50,916 --> 00:01:53,000
And I pushed through that part of my life
47
00:01:53,625 --> 00:01:55,791
and then COVID came and
48
00:01:55,791 --> 00:01:56,833
I'm a neuroscience major.
49
00:01:57,041 --> 00:01:59,958
So I have a lot of labs and my university
50
00:01:59,958 --> 00:02:01,375
kicked all of our labs online.
51
00:02:01,916 --> 00:02:02,875
I said, I'm not
52
00:02:02,875 --> 00:02:05,125
paying for my labs online.
53
00:02:05,458 --> 00:02:08,458
So I took one or two classes during that
54
00:02:08,458 --> 00:02:12,000
time online, but that also backlogged my
55
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:13,416
expected graduation date.
56
00:02:14,750 --> 00:02:16,500
I kept pushing through because I have
57
00:02:16,500 --> 00:02:18,583
this passion for helping those with
58
00:02:18,583 --> 00:02:20,750
cerebral palsy like my brother Trent.
59
00:02:21,458 --> 00:02:23,291
And so I just kept pushing and pushing
60
00:02:23,291 --> 00:02:25,833
and pushing and I realized my passions
61
00:02:25,833 --> 00:02:26,625
and my motivations
62
00:02:27,166 --> 00:02:28,000
for pushing me forward.
63
00:02:28,458 --> 00:02:29,458
I could have very easily
64
00:02:29,458 --> 00:02:30,583
given up, but I didn't.
65
00:02:30,916 --> 00:02:32,958
And so now I'm expected to graduate in
66
00:02:32,958 --> 00:02:34,791
December and I'm seeing that finish line
67
00:02:35,375 --> 00:02:37,083
and I'm so excited and I can't wait.
68
00:02:37,625 --> 00:02:39,541
Oh, I bet you really can't wait.
69
00:02:40,541 --> 00:02:42,500
Yes, it's been a long road, but it's so
70
00:02:42,500 --> 00:02:44,583
worth it when you have those passions
71
00:02:44,583 --> 00:02:45,583
propelling you forward.
72
00:02:46,375 --> 00:02:48,666
Well, congratulations on that finish line
73
00:02:48,666 --> 00:02:50,166
being just a couple months away.
74
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:52,416
What you shared about wanting to take
75
00:02:52,416 --> 00:02:55,666
care of your Nana is a real testament to
76
00:02:55,666 --> 00:02:57,375
your heart and who you are.
77
00:02:57,375 --> 00:02:59,791
And your heart is really why I wanted to
78
00:02:59,791 --> 00:03:00,791
have you on today because
79
00:03:00,791 --> 00:03:03,083
you are a neuroscience major.
80
00:03:03,083 --> 00:03:04,875
Let's not pretend that that's an easy
81
00:03:04,875 --> 00:03:07,625
major because it's not, but I also wanna
82
00:03:07,625 --> 00:03:09,958
shed light on the other work that you do,
83
00:03:10,375 --> 00:03:13,250
which is you do a tremendous amount of
84
00:03:13,250 --> 00:03:14,500
advocacy work that you
85
00:03:14,500 --> 00:03:15,666
briefly mentioned there.
86
00:03:16,458 --> 00:03:19,041
Talk about how you got involved in this
87
00:03:19,041 --> 00:03:21,333
advocacy to begin with and then we'll
88
00:03:21,333 --> 00:03:23,041
discuss how you balance everything
89
00:03:23,041 --> 00:03:24,916
because I want your time management tips.
90
00:03:25,875 --> 00:03:29,916
Yes, so my brother has cerebral palsy,
91
00:03:30,375 --> 00:03:32,458
which is a motor disorder of the brain.
92
00:03:33,583 --> 00:03:35,083
There were a lot of mistakes made when he
93
00:03:35,083 --> 00:03:37,208
was born that caused him to have cerebral
94
00:03:37,208 --> 00:03:38,791
palsy, which is the
95
00:03:38,791 --> 00:03:40,708
result of some brain damage.
96
00:03:41,541 --> 00:03:44,041
And I have grown up with him and I know
97
00:03:44,041 --> 00:03:45,166
what he's capable of,
98
00:03:45,166 --> 00:03:46,500
but other people don't.
99
00:03:47,333 --> 00:03:49,625
So in the sixth grade, I found my voice
100
00:03:49,833 --> 00:03:51,375
and I found that my voice had power.
101
00:03:52,500 --> 00:03:55,000
I began giving a presentation to my peers
102
00:03:55,625 --> 00:03:57,000
because they wanted to know how to
103
00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:58,250
communicate with my brother.
104
00:03:59,541 --> 00:04:02,125
They didn't understand that they just can
105
00:04:02,125 --> 00:04:03,208
go up and talk to him that
106
00:04:03,208 --> 00:04:04,333
he's just like everyone else.
107
00:04:04,833 --> 00:04:06,250
And I explained that to them.
108
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:09,250
Later after I had given that presentation
109
00:04:09,250 --> 00:04:12,958
to my peers at a football game, later
110
00:04:12,958 --> 00:04:15,375
that night, my friends were talking to my
111
00:04:15,375 --> 00:04:16,541
brother without me being around.
112
00:04:17,583 --> 00:04:18,791
And in that moment, I
113
00:04:18,791 --> 00:04:19,875
knew that I had power.
114
00:04:21,041 --> 00:04:24,375
So I just kept talking to anyone and
115
00:04:24,375 --> 00:04:26,333
everyone that I knew that those with
116
00:04:26,333 --> 00:04:28,750
cerebral palsy are just like anyone else.
117
00:04:28,750 --> 00:04:30,833
They just move differently, which has led
118
00:04:30,833 --> 00:04:32,916
me to today where I've impacted the lives
119
00:04:32,916 --> 00:04:34,708
of over 75,000 people.
120
00:04:35,375 --> 00:04:37,250
I've partnered with national platforms
121
00:04:37,791 --> 00:04:39,375
and my advocacy just keeps
122
00:04:39,375 --> 00:04:41,000
going and going and going.
123
00:04:41,916 --> 00:04:44,625
So I wanna highlight, this is a beautiful
124
00:04:44,625 --> 00:04:46,500
university student who
125
00:04:46,500 --> 00:04:48,083
has done this much advocacy.
126
00:04:48,625 --> 00:04:50,333
For those that are not familiar with what
127
00:04:50,333 --> 00:04:52,375
you do though, give us just a brief
128
00:04:52,375 --> 00:04:54,000
snapshot of all you've done
129
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:55,208
within your advocacy work.
130
00:04:55,875 --> 00:04:58,500
Yes, so I raise funds for the Cerebral
131
00:04:58,500 --> 00:05:01,000
Palsy Alliance Research Foundation as
132
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,666
well as United Cerebral Palsy to help
133
00:05:03,666 --> 00:05:06,208
propel that research forward so we can
134
00:05:06,208 --> 00:05:09,458
better treat those with CP and we can
135
00:05:09,458 --> 00:05:11,541
diagnose CP earlier.
136
00:05:12,541 --> 00:05:14,750
I also have a free children's activity
137
00:05:14,750 --> 00:05:17,083
book that teaches our next generation
138
00:05:17,500 --> 00:05:20,000
what it means to have cerebral palsy and
139
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:21,416
then they're just like us,
140
00:05:21,625 --> 00:05:22,625
they just move differently.
141
00:05:23,375 --> 00:05:25,708
And I also do a lot of social media work
142
00:05:26,083 --> 00:05:28,833
highlighting the experiences that my
143
00:05:28,833 --> 00:05:31,958
brother and others have had that they
144
00:05:31,958 --> 00:05:34,208
enjoy things in life just like us.
145
00:05:34,500 --> 00:05:35,750
They just have to do it a little bit
146
00:05:35,750 --> 00:05:36,666
differently than us.
147
00:05:38,125 --> 00:05:40,833
One thing I really wanna spotlight is I
148
00:05:40,833 --> 00:05:43,750
can't imagine it's easy balancing, taking
149
00:05:43,750 --> 00:05:46,333
care of yourself, balancing your
150
00:05:46,333 --> 00:05:48,041
academics, your studies,
151
00:05:48,458 --> 00:05:50,958
alongside all of this advocacy work.
152
00:05:50,958 --> 00:05:52,500
And I can imagine you have shifting
153
00:05:52,500 --> 00:05:55,125
priorities and a bit of a push and pull
154
00:05:55,125 --> 00:05:57,000
sometimes on what takes your attention.
155
00:05:57,875 --> 00:05:59,083
How do you manage it?
156
00:06:00,291 --> 00:06:03,041
I think having priorities and having your
157
00:06:03,041 --> 00:06:05,083
passions at the core of what you are
158
00:06:05,083 --> 00:06:07,541
doing helps you realize where
159
00:06:07,541 --> 00:06:08,708
you need to dedicate your time.
160
00:06:09,625 --> 00:06:11,083
Right now I'm finishing off that final
161
00:06:11,083 --> 00:06:12,875
semester and I have a
162
00:06:12,875 --> 00:06:13,916
lot of hard classes.
163
00:06:14,958 --> 00:06:17,541
And so my top priority right now is
164
00:06:17,541 --> 00:06:18,583
finishing that degree.
165
00:06:19,041 --> 00:06:21,250
But at the core of that degree is my
166
00:06:21,250 --> 00:06:23,041
passions for helping those with cerebral
167
00:06:23,041 --> 00:06:25,083
palsy lead a fulfilling life.
168
00:06:25,625 --> 00:06:27,375
And in order to do that, once I get my
169
00:06:27,375 --> 00:06:29,875
degree, I can push that research forward.
170
00:06:30,458 --> 00:06:33,333
I can help propel my advocacy as well.
171
00:06:34,208 --> 00:06:35,208
It's things like that that
172
00:06:35,208 --> 00:06:36,291
help me keep me motivated.
173
00:06:37,291 --> 00:06:39,458
Of course, my CP advocacy is something
174
00:06:39,458 --> 00:06:41,083
that's huge and it's a
175
00:06:41,083 --> 00:06:42,458
part of my everyday life.
176
00:06:43,208 --> 00:06:46,500
So finding that balance for me means,
177
00:06:47,083 --> 00:06:48,250
okay, what can I do today
178
00:06:48,250 --> 00:06:49,583
to make tomorrow better?
179
00:06:51,416 --> 00:06:52,875
How do you find the balance to take care
180
00:06:52,875 --> 00:06:54,250
of you because you're
181
00:06:54,250 --> 00:06:55,708
always pouring into other people?
182
00:06:56,750 --> 00:06:57,750
I'm a firm believer and you
183
00:06:57,750 --> 00:06:59,166
can't pour from an empty cup.
184
00:06:59,708 --> 00:07:02,041
So if I'm exhausted, I know
185
00:07:02,041 --> 00:07:03,291
that I can't help my brother.
186
00:07:03,583 --> 00:07:05,166
I can't help people like him.
187
00:07:05,416 --> 00:07:07,541
I won't succeed in my academic studies.
188
00:07:08,125 --> 00:07:09,833
So I make sure to take that time out
189
00:07:09,833 --> 00:07:10,875
every day to journal,
190
00:07:11,166 --> 00:07:12,375
I'm a huge journaler.
191
00:07:12,708 --> 00:07:14,833
I have probably about five that I carry
192
00:07:14,833 --> 00:07:16,125
around with me every day.
193
00:07:16,666 --> 00:07:19,125
One for my schedule, one for my advocacy,
194
00:07:19,125 --> 00:07:20,708
one for my schoolwork, and
195
00:07:20,708 --> 00:07:21,833
then one for my emotions.
196
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:24,000
I also believe in
197
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:25,541
fueling your body with food.
198
00:07:25,541 --> 00:07:27,583
I don't look at food as a pleasurable
199
00:07:27,583 --> 00:07:31,083
item, but rather food for my body in
200
00:07:31,083 --> 00:07:32,833
order to do the work that I need to do.
201
00:07:33,208 --> 00:07:35,541
And that's how I balance that
202
00:07:35,541 --> 00:07:39,208
juxtaposition of pouring into others, but
203
00:07:39,208 --> 00:07:40,333
also pouring into myself.
204
00:07:40,916 --> 00:07:41,875
Did you say you keep a
205
00:07:41,875 --> 00:07:42,750
journal for your emotions?
206
00:07:43,416 --> 00:07:44,291
Yes, I do.
207
00:07:44,875 --> 00:07:45,708
Expand on this.
208
00:07:47,958 --> 00:07:50,583
So when I was a freshman in high school,
209
00:07:51,500 --> 00:07:53,708
my dad was tragically killed in a
210
00:07:53,708 --> 00:07:55,666
motorcycle accident on his way to work.
211
00:07:57,708 --> 00:08:00,375
After that, I didn't know how to
212
00:08:00,375 --> 00:08:02,125
comprehend what was going on.
213
00:08:02,750 --> 00:08:05,000
I struggled, I turned to food as a source
214
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:06,541
of comfort, gaining
215
00:08:06,541 --> 00:08:08,000
nearly 50 pounds in one year.
216
00:08:08,875 --> 00:08:10,958
And I sat down with myself one day and I
217
00:08:10,958 --> 00:08:12,541
was like, this is not what
218
00:08:12,541 --> 00:08:13,875
my dad would want for my life.
219
00:08:14,416 --> 00:08:15,750
He would want me to be productive.
220
00:08:16,208 --> 00:08:18,541
He would want me to go make a difference
221
00:08:19,208 --> 00:08:20,500
in the lives of those around me.
222
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:23,000
And so I decided I had to do something
223
00:08:23,708 --> 00:08:26,458
and I turned to journaling and I got my
224
00:08:26,458 --> 00:08:27,625
health back on track.
225
00:08:28,458 --> 00:08:30,458
And I reclaimed that healthy lifestyle
226
00:08:30,458 --> 00:08:33,208
that I had previously before it passed.
227
00:08:33,583 --> 00:08:36,250
Now, whatever emotions I have, I write
228
00:08:36,250 --> 00:08:38,333
them down, I analyze them and say, okay,
229
00:08:38,333 --> 00:08:39,833
let's look at this in a positive light.
230
00:08:40,541 --> 00:08:42,958
Also my faith, I'm a huge believer in God
231
00:08:43,708 --> 00:08:44,625
and my faith has helped
232
00:08:44,625 --> 00:08:45,875
propel me through as well.
233
00:08:46,916 --> 00:08:48,333
When you look at that emotion journal,
234
00:08:48,333 --> 00:08:50,416
like as you're going through your busy
235
00:08:50,416 --> 00:08:51,208
lifestyle and your busy
236
00:08:51,208 --> 00:08:52,958
days, do you notice patterns?
237
00:08:55,833 --> 00:08:59,333
When I am very stressed out, I notice
238
00:08:59,333 --> 00:09:02,958
that there's more heightened emotions,
239
00:09:03,666 --> 00:09:06,333
but I also throughout these years, have
240
00:09:06,333 --> 00:09:08,500
realized how to recognize those and what
241
00:09:08,500 --> 00:09:11,416
I need to do for myself in order to get
242
00:09:11,416 --> 00:09:13,500
back to who I am in the
243
00:09:13,500 --> 00:09:14,708
positivity and spreading.
244
00:09:15,250 --> 00:09:17,458
And that's how I get that energy back
245
00:09:17,458 --> 00:09:19,250
into my cup so I can pour into others.
246
00:09:21,416 --> 00:09:22,583
One thing I love about what you're
247
00:09:22,583 --> 00:09:24,791
saying, right, is you have this deep
248
00:09:24,791 --> 00:09:27,791
desire and this deep heart to serve.
249
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:31,750
And there is sometimes misinformation in
250
00:09:31,750 --> 00:09:34,500
my opinion or negative opinions about the
251
00:09:34,500 --> 00:09:36,291
younger generation that's coming up.
252
00:09:36,708 --> 00:09:38,833
Sometimes people say that they focus too
253
00:09:38,833 --> 00:09:40,916
much on social media or they're not
254
00:09:40,916 --> 00:09:43,666
caring enough, but you're in a shining
255
00:09:43,666 --> 00:09:46,916
and really truly wonderful example of
256
00:09:46,916 --> 00:09:48,791
somebody from a younger generation making
257
00:09:48,791 --> 00:09:50,333
a profound difference.
258
00:09:50,916 --> 00:09:54,500
How do you think you being this advocate,
259
00:09:54,666 --> 00:09:56,875
doing this work shows other people that
260
00:09:56,875 --> 00:09:57,750
they can make a difference?
261
00:09:59,041 --> 00:10:01,541
I think if you look at my story, it's
262
00:10:01,541 --> 00:10:02,791
very easy for someone in
263
00:10:02,791 --> 00:10:04,083
my position to give up.
264
00:10:05,458 --> 00:10:07,833
But when you have the light of Jesus
265
00:10:07,833 --> 00:10:10,916
within you and you have this passion to
266
00:10:10,916 --> 00:10:13,458
make a change in the world, you can
267
00:10:13,458 --> 00:10:15,083
really do incredible things.
268
00:10:15,916 --> 00:10:17,333
I look at my brother every day as my
269
00:10:17,333 --> 00:10:19,250
motivation and he is the
270
00:10:19,250 --> 00:10:22,166
key factor in everything I do.
271
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:24,916
He's the reason that I'm pursuing
272
00:10:24,916 --> 00:10:26,375
neuroscience because like
273
00:10:26,375 --> 00:10:27,666
you said, it is not easy.
274
00:10:28,583 --> 00:10:30,750
It's not an easy course to
275
00:10:30,750 --> 00:10:32,000
study, not even a little bit.
276
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:33,916
No, it's not.
277
00:10:34,458 --> 00:10:37,916
But when you realize your why and when
278
00:10:37,916 --> 00:10:40,208
you solidify that, you are
279
00:10:40,208 --> 00:10:42,125
able to do incredible things.
280
00:10:43,625 --> 00:10:46,041
What would you say to someone who wants
281
00:10:46,041 --> 00:10:48,000
to start advocacy or wants to start
282
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:49,500
speaking out, but they're scared of how
283
00:10:49,500 --> 00:10:51,458
other people might think about them?
284
00:10:52,916 --> 00:10:53,791
Just do it.
285
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:56,791
When you-- I like it.
286
00:10:57,583 --> 00:10:57,791
Yes.
287
00:10:58,041 --> 00:11:00,791
I think that jumping into the pool of
288
00:11:00,791 --> 00:11:01,666
advocacy can
289
00:11:01,666 --> 00:11:03,333
sometimes be scary for people.
290
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,291
I know for me, it took me getting up in
291
00:11:06,291 --> 00:11:07,958
front of a whole classroom of sixth
292
00:11:07,958 --> 00:11:10,583
graders that all have their own opinions.
293
00:11:11,500 --> 00:11:14,500
But what I've realized is when you have a
294
00:11:14,500 --> 00:11:17,041
passion and you have that drive inside of
295
00:11:17,041 --> 00:11:20,041
you and you have motivation from those
296
00:11:20,041 --> 00:11:21,458
around you to make a
297
00:11:21,458 --> 00:11:22,833
change, you can do it.
298
00:11:23,416 --> 00:11:24,458
Always keep your why.
299
00:11:24,916 --> 00:11:27,958
When you have a strong foundational why,
300
00:11:29,125 --> 00:11:31,208
everyone's opinions do not matter.
301
00:11:33,125 --> 00:11:33,916
I love that.
302
00:11:34,666 --> 00:11:37,291
And for someone that has not cultivated a
303
00:11:37,291 --> 00:11:39,291
why, how do you do that?
304
00:11:39,291 --> 00:11:41,208
How did you do that as an example?
305
00:11:42,708 --> 00:11:45,666
So I was pretty young when I figured out
306
00:11:45,666 --> 00:11:49,375
my why, but it's because I realized that
307
00:11:49,375 --> 00:11:51,291
people around me viewed my brother
308
00:11:51,291 --> 00:11:52,625
differently than I did.
309
00:11:53,875 --> 00:11:56,625
And I said, why do people look at him and
310
00:11:56,625 --> 00:11:57,666
just see his wheelchair?
311
00:11:58,250 --> 00:12:00,708
He is so much more than that.
312
00:12:01,416 --> 00:12:02,416
And I wanna make a change.
313
00:12:03,750 --> 00:12:05,750
And I made that change by talking in my
314
00:12:05,750 --> 00:12:06,791
sixth grade classroom.
315
00:12:07,666 --> 00:12:09,583
And so anyone that's looking to form
316
00:12:09,583 --> 00:12:12,625
their why, looking for something that you
317
00:12:12,625 --> 00:12:14,500
feel like is wrong in this world, that
318
00:12:14,500 --> 00:12:15,500
you want to change,
319
00:12:16,208 --> 00:12:17,291
how did it affect you?
320
00:12:17,708 --> 00:12:18,875
What is your story?
321
00:12:19,458 --> 00:12:20,875
And what can you do to
322
00:12:20,875 --> 00:12:22,000
make a difference about it?
323
00:12:23,416 --> 00:12:26,375
And there is so much that does need to be
324
00:12:26,375 --> 00:12:27,833
shifted and does need to
325
00:12:27,833 --> 00:12:29,125
be changed in our world.
326
00:12:29,708 --> 00:12:31,375
So you really are not gonna have to look
327
00:12:31,375 --> 00:12:33,375
that hard to find something that you feel
328
00:12:33,375 --> 00:12:35,666
passionately about and that you wanna
329
00:12:35,666 --> 00:12:37,458
make a difference regarding.
330
00:12:38,416 --> 00:12:39,750
Callie, I wanna shift this conversation
331
00:12:39,750 --> 00:12:42,208
in a slightly different direction because
332
00:12:42,208 --> 00:12:44,208
it's a curiosity question from me.
333
00:12:44,750 --> 00:12:46,458
Have you ever come across someone who
334
00:12:46,458 --> 00:12:49,208
perhaps underestimated you because of
335
00:12:49,208 --> 00:12:51,791
your age as you do this work?
336
00:12:53,041 --> 00:12:54,666
Yeah, I think people look at me and they
337
00:12:54,666 --> 00:12:58,166
realize that I'm young, but then I tell
338
00:12:58,166 --> 00:13:00,291
them everything that I've done and what I
339
00:13:00,291 --> 00:13:01,583
stand for, and then they
340
00:13:01,583 --> 00:13:02,625
kind of open their eyes.
341
00:13:03,500 --> 00:13:04,958
I've had people doubt
342
00:13:04,958 --> 00:13:06,916
me from all aspects.
343
00:13:07,875 --> 00:13:10,083
But like I said, when you have that why
344
00:13:10,083 --> 00:13:13,000
and that motivation, like I look at my
345
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:14,583
brother and those
346
00:13:14,583 --> 00:13:16,666
haters become my motivators.
347
00:13:17,166 --> 00:13:18,333
That's a big phrase
348
00:13:18,333 --> 00:13:19,458
that I use in my house.
349
00:13:19,875 --> 00:13:21,416
But when I have those people that look at
350
00:13:21,416 --> 00:13:23,208
me and say, you're young, you can't do
351
00:13:23,208 --> 00:13:24,833
this, I say, watch me.
352
00:13:27,500 --> 00:13:30,208
You are truly a testament to, I think
353
00:13:30,208 --> 00:13:32,125
just having so much passion and a fire.
354
00:13:32,500 --> 00:13:35,166
And if I may, I would really like to have
355
00:13:35,166 --> 00:13:37,083
half the energy in a day that you have.
356
00:13:37,333 --> 00:13:38,791
If I could just siphon some of your
357
00:13:38,791 --> 00:13:39,791
energy, that would be
358
00:13:39,791 --> 00:13:40,708
nice, that would be great.
359
00:13:42,375 --> 00:13:42,416
(Laughing)
360
00:13:42,916 --> 00:13:45,416
Speaking of energy and time management,
361
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:47,041
what does a typical day
362
00:13:47,041 --> 00:13:48,875
look like and your schedule?
363
00:13:49,083 --> 00:13:50,083
How do you manage your time?
364
00:13:52,083 --> 00:13:54,625
I, like I said, I love to journal.
365
00:13:55,333 --> 00:13:57,333
I break, I do this thing,
366
00:13:57,333 --> 00:13:59,041
it's called schedule blocking.
367
00:13:59,750 --> 00:14:02,916
So I break my day up into however many
368
00:14:02,916 --> 00:14:04,583
minutes I need to allocate for something.
369
00:14:05,416 --> 00:14:08,416
Today I was up at 6 a.m. to drive to
370
00:14:08,416 --> 00:14:09,500
Bowling Green to take my
371
00:14:09,500 --> 00:14:11,083
organic chemistry class.
372
00:14:11,791 --> 00:14:12,750
And then God bless my
373
00:14:12,750 --> 00:14:13,875
mom, she took me to school.
374
00:14:14,291 --> 00:14:16,333
So on the way home, I worked on homework.
375
00:14:16,958 --> 00:14:18,250
And I think it's just finding those
376
00:14:18,250 --> 00:14:20,333
little pockets in the day where you can
377
00:14:20,333 --> 00:14:22,291
get something off your to-do list.
378
00:14:22,916 --> 00:14:24,708
I always take my to-do list, I break it
379
00:14:24,708 --> 00:14:26,416
down, I allocate the time for it.
380
00:14:26,625 --> 00:14:28,333
And if I don't get it all done, I just
381
00:14:28,333 --> 00:14:29,416
shift it to the next day.
382
00:14:30,208 --> 00:14:31,625
And calendars and
383
00:14:31,625 --> 00:14:33,166
schedules are my best friend.
384
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:36,125
How do you avoid distractions, especially
385
00:14:36,125 --> 00:14:38,291
in a world that's full of them,
386
00:14:38,291 --> 00:14:39,750
particularly on social media?
387
00:14:40,291 --> 00:14:42,708
Yes, I use an app called
388
00:14:42,708 --> 00:14:44,458
Focus Friend on my phone.
389
00:14:45,208 --> 00:14:48,708
And you basically set this timer and it
390
00:14:48,708 --> 00:14:50,333
locks you out of all of your apps.
391
00:14:50,625 --> 00:14:51,750
You don't get any notifications.
392
00:14:52,708 --> 00:14:54,166
And when I have to be locked in on
393
00:14:54,166 --> 00:14:57,000
something, whether it's school or my
394
00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,458
advocacy, I turn that on for two hours
395
00:14:59,458 --> 00:15:01,583
and I don't look at my phone at all.
396
00:15:02,041 --> 00:15:04,875
I also have timers on my social medias.
397
00:15:05,250 --> 00:15:07,750
So I only allocate so much time a day to
398
00:15:07,750 --> 00:15:10,041
be scrolling or posting or whatever I
399
00:15:10,041 --> 00:15:10,958
need to be doing on there.
400
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:13,625
If you spend so much time in social
401
00:15:13,625 --> 00:15:15,791
media, and I know I'm certainly guilty of
402
00:15:15,791 --> 00:15:18,000
this, it's easy to become chronically
403
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,458
outraged by the things you see, but that
404
00:15:20,458 --> 00:15:22,541
puts you in a position in a state where
405
00:15:22,541 --> 00:15:24,208
you're essentially stuck.
406
00:15:24,625 --> 00:15:27,041
You feel paralyzed because the problems
407
00:15:27,041 --> 00:15:28,583
feel insurmountably big.
408
00:15:29,708 --> 00:15:31,375
Yes, I agree with that.
409
00:15:31,375 --> 00:15:32,958
That's why limiting your time on social
410
00:15:32,958 --> 00:15:35,583
media the best you can is one of the
411
00:15:35,583 --> 00:15:37,833
biggest tools to be successful and to
412
00:15:37,833 --> 00:15:39,125
become a leader in society.
413
00:15:40,666 --> 00:15:42,500
I would really like to dive into the
414
00:15:42,500 --> 00:15:44,000
seven years bachelor conversation
415
00:15:45,041 --> 00:15:47,666
because I'm sure at points during that
416
00:15:47,666 --> 00:15:50,791
journey, you felt really, really
417
00:15:50,791 --> 00:15:53,916
exhausted and I'm sure thankless.
418
00:15:54,958 --> 00:15:58,875
As a seven years for essentially what is
419
00:15:58,875 --> 00:16:00,500
generally speaking a four year degree,
420
00:16:01,291 --> 00:16:04,833
what have you learned about being in that
421
00:16:04,833 --> 00:16:07,416
bachelor's program longer throughout the
422
00:16:07,416 --> 00:16:08,791
seven years that you didn't think you
423
00:16:08,791 --> 00:16:09,500
would learn in four?
424
00:16:11,291 --> 00:16:13,208
Your path is defined by
425
00:16:13,208 --> 00:16:16,000
your path, not anyone else's.
426
00:16:16,708 --> 00:16:18,500
Comparison is the thief of joy.
427
00:16:20,375 --> 00:16:22,125
The path that I'm going is unique and
428
00:16:22,125 --> 00:16:23,416
it's different than all
429
00:16:23,416 --> 00:16:24,625
of my peers around me.
430
00:16:25,125 --> 00:16:26,916
But when I take that step back and I say,
431
00:16:26,916 --> 00:16:27,708
okay, in these seven
432
00:16:27,708 --> 00:16:29,375
years, what has happened?
433
00:16:30,250 --> 00:16:31,958
I've been backlogged by the pandemic.
434
00:16:32,291 --> 00:16:33,291
I started a business
435
00:16:33,291 --> 00:16:34,666
during that time as well.
436
00:16:35,250 --> 00:16:37,125
I really ramped up my cerebral palsy
437
00:16:37,125 --> 00:16:39,541
advocacy and I've got a valuable
438
00:16:39,541 --> 00:16:42,166
education instead of just a diploma.
439
00:16:43,916 --> 00:16:46,083
I know sometimes people will dive in and
440
00:16:46,083 --> 00:16:47,958
they'll take 19 credit hours because they
441
00:16:47,958 --> 00:16:49,000
wanna get the degree done.
442
00:16:50,458 --> 00:16:52,500
But I look at education as
443
00:16:52,500 --> 00:16:54,500
the foundation for what is next.
444
00:16:54,958 --> 00:16:57,000
You can't have a Rocky Foundation and if
445
00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:59,500
I would have taken those classes during
446
00:16:59,500 --> 00:17:02,041
the pandemic, I would have had a Rocky
447
00:17:02,041 --> 00:17:04,250
Foundation for my next chapter in life.
448
00:17:05,208 --> 00:17:06,833
I had to choose that for me because
449
00:17:06,833 --> 00:17:08,500
that's what was best at the time.
450
00:17:09,458 --> 00:17:10,541
For someone else, their
451
00:17:10,541 --> 00:17:11,458
story might be different.
452
00:17:12,250 --> 00:17:14,791
But not attending labs because we were
453
00:17:14,791 --> 00:17:17,208
all locked in our houses is not something
454
00:17:17,208 --> 00:17:18,125
that I wanted to do.
455
00:17:18,416 --> 00:17:20,708
I wanted that valuable, crispy education
456
00:17:21,500 --> 00:17:22,708
instead of just the piece of
457
00:17:22,708 --> 00:17:23,916
paper at the end of the tunnel.
458
00:17:25,625 --> 00:17:26,291
I love that.
459
00:17:27,166 --> 00:17:29,500
Did you ever feel any sort of guilt or
460
00:17:29,500 --> 00:17:31,041
shame over the decision or were you
461
00:17:31,041 --> 00:17:32,083
always pretty steadfast?
462
00:17:33,500 --> 00:17:37,500
There were times where I was upset that I
463
00:17:37,500 --> 00:17:39,666
was gonna graduate later than everyone
464
00:17:39,666 --> 00:17:42,500
else around me and I feel like their life
465
00:17:42,500 --> 00:17:44,000
was propelling me for mine.
466
00:17:44,458 --> 00:17:46,875
But my mom and I sat down and had a
467
00:17:46,875 --> 00:17:48,208
conversation about it and
468
00:17:48,208 --> 00:17:49,291
she agreed with my decision.
469
00:17:50,041 --> 00:17:51,208
She said, "You're in college for an
470
00:17:51,208 --> 00:17:53,333
education, "not for a piece of paper.
471
00:17:54,250 --> 00:17:56,333
"If we're gonna be paying for this,
472
00:17:56,500 --> 00:17:58,250
"you're gonna get that robust education."
473
00:17:58,875 --> 00:18:00,666
And I think having that conversation with
474
00:18:00,666 --> 00:18:02,833
her was something that helped me change
475
00:18:02,833 --> 00:18:05,666
my mindset and realize that my path is my
476
00:18:05,666 --> 00:18:06,958
own and not to
477
00:18:06,958 --> 00:18:08,125
compare it to anyone else's.
478
00:18:09,125 --> 00:18:10,041
Moms are so special.
479
00:18:10,500 --> 00:18:11,541
Oh my gosh, yes.
480
00:18:11,875 --> 00:18:13,875
My mom is the most
481
00:18:13,875 --> 00:18:16,583
wonderful person that I've ever met.
482
00:18:16,875 --> 00:18:18,375
She will give the shirt off her back to
483
00:18:18,375 --> 00:18:19,916
someone if they need it.
484
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:21,625
That's beautiful.
485
00:18:22,875 --> 00:18:24,500
And I love what you said about the
486
00:18:24,500 --> 00:18:27,666
foundation for your next chapter.
487
00:18:28,791 --> 00:18:30,000
What is the foundation that you're
488
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:32,291
building today for your next chapter and
489
00:18:32,291 --> 00:18:33,291
how are you building it?
490
00:18:34,541 --> 00:18:37,208
So my next chapter is going to get a
491
00:18:37,208 --> 00:18:40,708
master's of psychology and by building
492
00:18:40,708 --> 00:18:43,333
that foundation, I need to have those
493
00:18:43,333 --> 00:18:46,250
good classes, be studying my neuroscience
494
00:18:46,250 --> 00:18:48,708
classes very intensely and very deeply,
495
00:18:49,166 --> 00:18:51,666
but also absorbing the information so I
496
00:18:51,666 --> 00:18:54,666
can go and obtain that master's of
497
00:18:54,666 --> 00:18:56,333
psychology, which is my next step.
498
00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:57,750
But it's also to
499
00:18:57,750 --> 00:18:59,083
further my advocacy work.
500
00:18:59,708 --> 00:19:01,500
That's something that's deeply important
501
00:19:01,500 --> 00:19:03,333
to me because anyone who's
502
00:19:03,333 --> 00:19:05,875
listening has figured out by now.
503
00:19:06,666 --> 00:19:08,375
And in order to have that solid
504
00:19:08,375 --> 00:19:11,750
foundation, I need to continue to
505
00:19:11,750 --> 00:19:14,458
advocate in any area of life that I can,
506
00:19:14,833 --> 00:19:16,750
regardless of it's just going into a
507
00:19:16,750 --> 00:19:18,750
smoothie shop and speaking my mind about
508
00:19:18,750 --> 00:19:21,333
there not being a door that my brother's
509
00:19:21,333 --> 00:19:24,958
able to open or going and saying, "Hey,
510
00:19:24,958 --> 00:19:26,958
this trash can's inaccessible because
511
00:19:26,958 --> 00:19:27,958
someone that uses a
512
00:19:27,958 --> 00:19:29,250
wheelchair can't open it."
513
00:19:30,083 --> 00:19:32,000
It's little things like that that help
514
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:33,958
build that solid foundation to get on
515
00:19:33,958 --> 00:19:35,500
that larger stage and
516
00:19:35,500 --> 00:19:37,208
confidently share my message.
517
00:19:38,125 --> 00:19:39,333
Is the goal to become Dr.
518
00:19:39,583 --> 00:19:39,791
Gregory?
519
00:19:40,416 --> 00:19:41,833
Yes, it is.
520
00:19:41,875 --> 00:19:42,625
I assumed.
521
00:19:43,666 --> 00:19:46,958
Yes, I want to become a
522
00:19:46,958 --> 00:19:47,916
pediatric neurologist.
523
00:19:49,083 --> 00:19:50,083
That's my end goal.
524
00:19:50,666 --> 00:19:53,000
My brother was doubted by a lot of
525
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:55,000
neurologists because of
526
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:56,583
what some brain scan said.
527
00:19:57,375 --> 00:19:59,125
And I know that's not true.
528
00:19:59,541 --> 00:20:01,333
So I want to give my patients hope.
529
00:20:01,875 --> 00:20:03,625
And that's the end goal regardless of how
530
00:20:03,625 --> 00:20:04,875
long it takes me to get there.
531
00:20:05,458 --> 00:20:06,333
That's the end goal.
532
00:20:07,500 --> 00:20:09,625
Well, from the conversation we've had, I
533
00:20:09,625 --> 00:20:11,208
don't think it'll be too challenging for
534
00:20:11,208 --> 00:20:12,166
you to stay motivated.
535
00:20:12,666 --> 00:20:14,958
With the tools that you're using, and I
536
00:20:14,958 --> 00:20:16,541
think really just the passion and the
537
00:20:16,541 --> 00:20:19,458
energy that you have as a person, I want
538
00:20:19,458 --> 00:20:21,250
to ask you an interesting question.
539
00:20:21,750 --> 00:20:24,291
So if you were going to give three pieces
540
00:20:24,291 --> 00:20:26,750
of advice to university-age students,
541
00:20:27,416 --> 00:20:27,833
what would those
542
00:20:27,833 --> 00:20:29,166
three pieces of advice be?
543
00:20:30,416 --> 00:20:32,000
Don't compare yourself to others.
544
00:20:33,458 --> 00:20:35,416
Comparison is the thief of joy.
545
00:20:35,875 --> 00:20:37,041
That's advice number one.
546
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:41,416
Advice number two, your path is your own.
547
00:20:42,125 --> 00:20:43,291
Regardless of how you get
548
00:20:43,291 --> 00:20:45,208
there, it doesn't matter.
549
00:20:45,833 --> 00:20:48,500
As long as you finish what you started.
550
00:20:50,416 --> 00:20:52,958
And piece number three, have motivation
551
00:20:53,333 --> 00:20:54,375
outside of just getting
552
00:20:54,375 --> 00:20:57,541
a diploma to your degree.
553
00:20:57,958 --> 00:20:59,041
Regardless if that's,
554
00:20:59,291 --> 00:21:00,000
I want to help kids.
555
00:21:00,791 --> 00:21:01,458
I want to make a
556
00:21:01,458 --> 00:21:02,375
difference in my community.
557
00:21:03,125 --> 00:21:05,666
Or like me, I want to help those with
558
00:21:05,666 --> 00:21:07,500
cerebral palsy lead a fulfilling life.
559
00:21:09,916 --> 00:21:11,250
Callie, as we wrap up, is there anything
560
00:21:11,250 --> 00:21:13,583
you want to share that I did not ask you?
561
00:21:14,875 --> 00:21:19,000
Oh my, we have discussed so much.
562
00:21:19,666 --> 00:21:23,083
But I think with our viewers, really I
563
00:21:23,083 --> 00:21:26,000
would like to share to stay motivated at
564
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:28,000
the core of who you are.
565
00:21:28,375 --> 00:21:30,500
Solidify that why early on
566
00:21:30,500 --> 00:21:32,291
in your university journey.
567
00:21:33,125 --> 00:21:35,000
Because when you have a why that's bigger
568
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,625
than a degree, you are more
569
00:21:37,625 --> 00:21:39,666
motivated to propel forward.
570
00:21:40,041 --> 00:21:41,791
You're excited about learning.
571
00:21:42,708 --> 00:21:45,791
You can achieve so much more when you
572
00:21:45,791 --> 00:21:48,291
have that passion and motivation outside
573
00:21:48,291 --> 00:21:49,250
of just a piece of paper.
574
00:21:51,333 --> 00:21:51,750
That's beautiful.
575
00:21:52,750 --> 00:21:55,000
I've had so much fun with you Callie.
576
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,708
If someone loves this conversation, they
577
00:21:57,708 --> 00:21:59,708
want to find your social media platforms
578
00:21:59,708 --> 00:22:01,333
to learn about your work and
579
00:22:01,333 --> 00:22:02,208
the stuff that you're doing.
580
00:22:02,750 --> 00:22:03,458
Where do they go?
581
00:22:04,541 --> 00:22:08,250
I'm on Facebook as Callie Gregory and I'm
582
00:22:08,250 --> 00:22:12,000
also on Instagram as at CallieGregory_.
583
00:22:13,458 --> 00:22:14,000
Thank you.
584
00:22:14,416 --> 00:22:15,166
I think your message
585
00:22:15,166 --> 00:22:16,500
really resonated for me.
586
00:22:16,791 --> 00:22:18,500
I likely have not shared this on the
587
00:22:18,500 --> 00:22:21,416
podcast before but similar to Callie, I
588
00:22:21,416 --> 00:22:24,166
started in volunteering, advocacy,
589
00:22:24,416 --> 00:22:25,833
service, whatever word
590
00:22:25,833 --> 00:22:26,750
you would want to use.
591
00:22:26,750 --> 00:22:29,458
Fairly young, I trained therapy dogs and
592
00:22:29,458 --> 00:22:31,083
then took those to nursing homes.
593
00:22:31,458 --> 00:22:33,166
And like Callie, I
594
00:22:33,166 --> 00:22:34,416
actually have a children's book.
595
00:22:34,750 --> 00:22:38,458
So I love to spotlight people who have
596
00:22:38,458 --> 00:22:41,166
something that they truly and deeply care
597
00:22:41,166 --> 00:22:43,166
about and then what they
598
00:22:43,166 --> 00:22:44,375
do with that in the world.
599
00:22:44,375 --> 00:22:46,291
And I think Callie is a beautiful example
600
00:22:46,291 --> 00:22:48,416
of, this is my lived experience.
601
00:22:48,750 --> 00:22:51,125
These are the things that I have seen and
602
00:22:51,125 --> 00:22:53,500
here's how I'm going to choose to serve
603
00:22:53,666 --> 00:22:56,375
to make the world a better place because
604
00:22:56,375 --> 00:22:58,666
we all want the world to be kinder, more
605
00:22:58,666 --> 00:22:59,833
receptive, more loving.
606
00:23:00,625 --> 00:23:03,083
But until we actually take the action
607
00:23:03,083 --> 00:23:06,041
that we can take, that we have a passion
608
00:23:06,041 --> 00:23:08,291
for, the world will likely be stagnant.
609
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,291
So huge applause to people like Callie
610
00:23:11,666 --> 00:23:13,625
who are balancing university, who are
611
00:23:13,625 --> 00:23:17,041
balancing coursework, balancing jobs and
612
00:23:17,041 --> 00:23:18,208
still doing all this.
613
00:23:18,458 --> 00:23:21,458
So you have a lot of applause from me.
614
00:23:21,458 --> 00:23:23,291
And I know from all of our listeners too.
615
00:23:23,583 --> 00:23:25,041
So thank you for coming on.
616
00:23:25,583 --> 00:23:27,500
Oh, thank you so much for having me.
617
00:23:27,500 --> 00:23:28,375
This was wonderful.
618
00:23:28,625 --> 00:23:31,375
And I wish all the viewers luck with
619
00:23:31,375 --> 00:23:32,583
their university journey
620
00:23:32,583 --> 00:23:34,291
and their life journey.
621
00:23:35,375 --> 00:23:36,750
Well, Callie, thank you so much for
622
00:23:36,750 --> 00:23:38,791
joining us and thank you everyone for

00:23:38,791 --> 00:23:41,291

(Upbeat Music)
626
00:23:45,916 --> 00:23:48,083
So if today's episode gave you life,
627
00:23:48,500 --> 00:23:51,000
perspective, or just a much needed moment
628
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:53,583
to breathe in a busy world, I don't want
629
00:23:53,583 --> 00:23:54,625
you to keep it to yourself.
630
00:23:55,500 --> 00:23:58,166
Share it, tag us, please send it to a
631
00:23:58,166 --> 00:23:59,875

646
00:24:31,125 --> 00:24:32,500
miss out on what matters.

surviving and start thriving.

Until next time, stay bold, stay curious,

00:24:44,458 --> 00:24:45,958
keep writing your own chapter.
