#414 –Why Talent Alone Won't Get You Ahead
by Eric Twiggs and Ted Fells

You’re talented. You work hard.
So why are others getting opportunities you’re not? 👀

In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Kester Crosse—gastroenterologist, healthcare leader, author of Open Doors, and proud member of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc.—to break down the real reason success isn’t just about talent.

And this one is personal…

Dr. Crosse and I are both graduates of Hampton University, which makes this conversation even more powerful.

Inside this episode:
👉 Why talented people get overlooked
👉 The people skills that actually open doors
👉 How emotional intelligence accelerates your career
👉 A practical framework to help you stand out immediately

If you’ve ever felt stuck, overlooked, or under-recognized—this conversation will change how you approach your career.

Stop relying on talent. Start getting selected. 🎯
