ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
One Degree to Victory is a podcast about change—why we want it, why we struggle with it, and what helps us move forward.
Hosted by Dr. Nelieta Hollis, each episode begins with a question and follows it through lived experience, thoughtful reflection, and the patterns that shape how we respond to life.
From worry, anxiety, stress, procrastination, and stagnation to the moments when we find ourselves waiting, avoiding, beginning again, or becoming something new, these conversations explore what happens between wanting change and knowing how to move toward it.
This is not motivation for motivation’s sake. It is a space to notice what is shaping you, understand the responses you have learned, and discover new possibilities for what comes next.

Panic loves to sound like certainty: “You have to decide right now.” When you’re a mom facing homelessness, that kind of pressure can hijack your brain and push you into choices that don’t actually move your family forward.

Staying too long can look responsible on the outside and feel like slow erosion on the inside. We tell a personal story about knowing a job needed to end, trying to “control the exit,” and realizing that the longer we delayed, the more of our energy we spent just surviving the day. If you’ve ever f…
Your life can be on fire, and you can still be capable. That’s the tension we sit with as Dr. Hollis shares the real distance between a hotel room season and a doctoral graduation stage, and why the story isn’t about pushing harder.
