Episode 4 of “Dangerously Vulnerable” features Keagan’s conversation with Jed Chappell, a community organizer and outreach minister in Oklahoma City. They talk about Jed’s programs at his nonprofit, OK City Center, and dive into Jed’s background, discussing the following:
What the City Center does, from food and clothing distribution to after-school programs and block parties
The experience of being in the City Center - “we want you to feel like the building is hugging you”
The importance Jed places on treating those you serve with dignity and helping them transition from being served to serving
Understanding Jed’s motto that “it’s not just what you do, but how you do it and why you do it”
How Jed responds to claims that he is simply “enabling” the people that OK City Center serves, and the importance of giving without expectations
Jed’s experiences as a “street pharmacist”, and other difficulties faced in his youth
How he bounced back from a prison sentence to becoming a pastor involved in outreach ministry and mentorship programs
One of the lessons Jed has learned; is that the story doesn’t necessarily end when you’re “saved”
The importance and impact of finding the right people to allow you to be “dangerously vulnerable”, and some of the people who have helped Jed the most

We like to think that we can become successful if we only follow our dreams and stay true to our passions. But if you’ve ever felt that that sentiment sounds a bit too good to be true, you might want to give Rabbi Daniel Lappin a listen. Rabbi Lappin is best known for his book “Thou Shall Prosper,” which, in his own words, “brings ancient Jewish financial wisdom to people of all backgrounds.” While some of his ideas may seem contrary to today’s popular wisdom, his message revolves around living a more authentic life - while also making money. In this episode, Keagan digs into the rabbi’s financial advice and uncovers the value of hard-to-swallow business truths.

You may remember him from Season 8 of MasterChef; he came in seventh. Since then, however, Gabriel Lewis has topped his class in culinary school and gone on to win Best Chef 2019 in Oklahoma City, and is currently in the midst of staking another claim for the white-apron title in MasterChef; Back to Win. In this episode, “A Master Chef’s Comeback,” Keagan Henson speaks with Chef Gabe and gets personal as they discuss his journey since his first appearance on the cooking show in 2017. Their conversation ranges from Lewis’s views on competition to the path of his creative growth. It illuminates the surprising ways that failure can factor into our lives and shift our perspectives.
