I had to ask @lauramrutlege how somebody can be that successful and still deal with imposter syndrome.

She said she’s had this drive for perfection in her since she was a kid… and instead of letting it break her, she used it as fuel to keep pushing herself forward.

That hit me, because a lot of people think success magically removes doubt. It don’t. Sometimes the people accomplishing the most are the ones constantly questioning themselves the hardest.

Y’all ever feel like that? Like you doing well but still wondering if you really belong there? 👀 #thepivot #espn #impostersyndrome

“When you already doubt yourself… some of it seeps in”- @lauramrutledge

It’s baffling that the Emmy nominated Laura Rutledge receives any hate. Even more baffling to Laura is the negativity that @mina_kimes deals with. It’s the reality of being an exceptional woman in the sport’s world.

With all she’s accomplished doubt still remains for Laura, & outside negativity still has its effects. She has learned to sift through it much better, but every now & then she responds… there may be a cocktail involved on those days.

“What I once thought was impossible is now the greatest joy in my life.” @lauramrutledge

A Pivotal Mother’s Day episode with everyone’s favorite- Laura Rutledge, who keeps proving that ambition and motherhood can coexist.

We always see the happy go-lucky, hardworking, ball-busting side of Laura on the sidelines from Monday Night Football to College biggest match ups to hosting Master’s ⛳️ coverage to leading @espnnfl Emmy Award-Winning NFL Live—what we don’t always see is the quiet moments of doubt, struggles and pure dedication, not just to her craft but her family.

In a deeply personal revelation, Laura opens up about the sacrifices, grief, fear of losing her career after becoming a mom, and the relentless work it takes to show up for both family and purpose. A powerful reminder that strength isn’t just what you achieve — it’s what you overcome.

“I spent the whole summer in Italy. Very much like black people. I had a ball”- Will Packer

@willpowerpacker’s “You, Me & Tuscany” is a universal love story, but Will Packer chose @Hallebailey as the lead with intention. He wanted his daughters to have someone to connect to. They got to see Bailey, a young brown girl, fall in love in exotic Italy, & the Italians spiced it up just right.

I had to ask @willpowerpacker if putting the word “Black” on his work minimizes the art… or if it brings him pride.

He said he creates stories for everybody. He ain’t trying to change who he is or how he’s seen. He knows the lane he occupies, he knows the audience that helped build him, and he stays true to that POV.

And let’s be real… you don’t cross $1 billion at the box office without connecting with people from all different backgrounds. That’s bigger than one demographic.

What he seemed most proud of was doing it his way. No pretending. No switching up. Just telling stories through his own lens.

Much respect for that. 🎬💯 #thepivot #blackfilmmaker #willpacker

“I walk around like I’m the Queen of England.” Channing

Healthy arrogance vs toxic arrogance @willpowerpacker was trying to figure out where @channingcrowder falls but @realrclark @fredtaylor said dig no further, they let him know 😂

“I know they stuffed you in the lockers… I know they were on your as*”- @willpowerpacker

Will Packer is in Hollywood rooms all the time with mediocre people. Those same people hold the power to either make or break your career. It’s the delicate balance of creating working relationships while understanding they aren’t friendships. Even the best get rejected in his world. It’s a reminder that not all the cool kids become decision makers.

“It’s what I call a fortuitous no”- Will Packer

Beyoncé Knowles turned down @willpowerpacker 5 times before agreeing to star in his movie “Obsessed”, but it wasn’t the “No” that mattered. It was the “why”. He used each “why” to improve his pitch, & indirectly improved his movie. Packer refused to take “no” for an answer until @beyonce couldn’t help but say “yes”.

Set the goal.
Trust the process.
Take it one step at a time.

Everything doesn’t have to happen overnight.
Progress is still progress, even when it’s gradual.
Keep building, keep stacking, keep showing up.

Slow motion is better than no motion
