With Dr. Sheena C. Howard


This is a podcast about the tough, messy middle where too many people give up. It’s about what happens before the win. 


Before the book deal.
Before the breakthrough.
Before the lights, camera, action.


Survive the Gap is a no-frills audio journal for creatives, single parents, professors, entrepreneurs—anyone trying to survive the gap between where they are and where they're trying to go. Hosted by award-winning writer, professor, and real-life phoenix Dr. Sheena C. Howard, this podcast delivers raw, unpolished reflections on what it actually takes to keep going when life’s in limbo.


Each short episode gives you a dose of story, strategy, and sometimes motivation. 


No fancy intros. No guests. Just truth from someone who is in the messy middle.


If you can survive the gap, you won’t just make it—you’ll win.
