How to stop tying your self-worth to work – Scottie Parker
Your worth isn't tied to your work, but it can feel impossible to separate the two. In this bonus room session, Eryn Eddy Adkins sits down with high performance coach, former NBA athletic trainer, and author Scottie Parker to talk about what happens when your identity becomes wrapped up in what you do instead of who you are. Scottie opens up about spending 12 years in professional sports, working with the Seattle Seahawks during their Super Bowl win, and eventually landing with the Atlanta Hawks. But behind the success was a man struggling with chronic pain, anxiety, depression, and a complete unraveling of faith. He shares the moment everything caught up with him, the lie he believed about his meaning being tied to the NBA, and the soul surgery it took to break free. They talk about the difference between emotional health and spiritual health, why you can have one without the other, and how lying to yourself keeps you stuck. Scottie gets real about isolation after injury, the pressure players face when their bodies fail them, and what it looks like to stand with someone in their darkest moment without trying to fix them. He also shares a wild God moment involving a license plate at 2:30 in the morning that gave him just enough hope to keep going. If you've ever felt lost to yourself, tied your value to your performance, or wondered if God still sees you in the mess, this conversation will remind you that you're not too far gone. Your worth was never meant to be earned. About Scottie Parker: Scottie Parker is a high performance coach, injury rehab specialist, and health consultant. He spent 12 years working in professional sports, including time with the Portland Trail Blazers, Seattle Seahawks, and Atlanta Hawks. He's also a husband, father of three, and author working on his first book about running, death, and the return home. His work focuses on helping people integrate physical, emotional, social, and spiritual health.
