In Episode 4, we talk with Katherine Darden, a sophomore at Clemson University, about her experience being in college and navigating the culture of performance, achievement and constant comparison. Toward the beginning, we discuss the "good college + good grades = good job and a good life" narrative (04:10), how the purpose of higher education has shifted over the last 100 years (07:00) and how our unique Enneagram types shape our perspectives and motivations related to the college experience (12:10). After the break, we talk about what it's like to follow Jesus and trust Him while being in an environment centered around seeking high levels of achievement (19:00) and discuss what the future will look like when younger generations begin applying to college. Finally, we wonder aloud whether or not it's possible for someone to be a high achiever and simultaneously trust the Lord with his or her life, career and ultimate fulfillment (29:20).Share your feedback on Instagram or Twitter! @lookcloserpod
