Welcome to Road to Reinvention, the podcast.
My name is Sherrell Dorsey, I’m a data journalist, a tech founder, an award-winning entrepreneur, and a speaker for Fortune 500 companies. After several successful businesses and what many would consider a life well done, I found myself struggling after earning all my gold stars, to answer the simple question of "what's next?" This seems to be a destination many find themselves arriving at and few know the answer.
Do you create just another goal? Do you hang it up? Do you pivot and show up in a new space? OR do you once and for all decide to put that kind of energy into your personal life and put the work aside?
I don't know yet. But I have tons of friends, colleagues, and people I admire that have tracked this same journey and will be joining us this season to bare it all. How they answered the question that left them puzzled after earning the highest of highs.
So join me as I speak to those who learned to navigate their own road to reinvention. I hope this podcast inspires you to honor every step of your journey and the need to change as you see fit.

S2 EP4: Controlling What I Can Control & Letting The Rest be God's Business
Are you a certified control freak? When a situation gets overwhelming - do you respond with calm or with chaos? With all the unpredictability that bombards us on the daily, Sherrell Dorsey puts a spotlight on how to release control and simply surrender to God when we find ourselves swept over by the uncertainties of the world.
In this episode, Sherrell talks about how taking a step back is sometimes better than moving forward. She also invites us to reflect on and assess the things that we cannot control, and shares how to find peace and grounding in the midst of chaos.
So tune in to this episode, and know that you do not have to walk this road alone.
KEY POINTS:
Regaining our sense of control amidst chaos
Let everything else be God’s business
Allow yourself to be vulnerable
Dealing with one’s thoughts and emotions
Pay attention on how you treat yourself and others when things seem to fall apart
Temporary moments of discomfort shall not affect negative consequences in the long run
QUOTABLES:
“The things I have no control over and should believe will be resolved in the Divine.”
“What I have control over is being extra kind to myself, being extra compassionate to myself during those times, it ensuring that these temporary moments of discomfort, do not create long term negative consequences in my life or within my relationships.”
