The Truth About Your Capacity with RaQuel Hopkins
About this episode
Sarah Jakes Roberts and RaQuel Hopkins discuss the importance of developing capacity in the face of life's challenges.
Sarah Jakes Roberts sits down with licensed therapist and leadership strategist RaQuel Hopkins for a powerful conversation about what it really means to have capacity when life keeps asking more of you. RaQuel breaks down the difference between simply coping and developing the capacity to stay present through uncertainty, change, vulnerability, and the complexities of everyday life. SJR also gets personal about rebuilding trust in herself after her accident, navigating the pressure to show up strong while still feeling unfinished, and learning to embrace vulnerability without seeing it as weakness. Together, Sarah and RaQuel explore self-trust, identity, emotional resilience, conditional self-worth, caregiving, and why growth sometimes requires us to question the stories we’ve accepted about who we have to be. Whether you’re navigating burnout, a major life transition, grief, uncertainty, or simply trying to figure out how to carry what’s on your plate, this conversation is an invitation to stop living on autopilot, get curious about what life is developing in you, and learn how to stay present with yourself along the way.
