Have you ever felt like you’re doing everything right but still not moving forward?
In this episode, Melvin P. Larry explores what it really means to hit a plateau — and why feeling stuck doesn’t mean you’ve failed.

You’ll discover:

The hidden value behind slow seasons and silent progress
Why smooth surfaces don’t give you traction — and how friction fuels growth
How to turn frustration into focus when your momentum stalls
The mindset shift that transforms plateaus into launchpads

Through real-life lessons and powerful metaphors — from mountain climbs to rubber bands and growing pains — Melvin reminds us that the resistance we feel isn’t there to break us, but to build us.

Because sometimes, the hardest seasons aren’t holding you back — they’re preparing you for your next breakthrough.

🎧 Listen now and discover why you’re not failing — you’re forming.
