Frequency: 1 episode/38d. Total Eps: 35

Navigating adulthood and adversity with transparency and vulnerability, here we highlight progress over perfection through my personal and professional development diary. Each episode I document and discuss my coming of age trials and tribulations as I trust the process on my journey to becoming. Join me as I peel back the curtain of perfection, and share my personal stories, with the hopes of helping you grow through, what you go through.

I’ll be discussing everything from education and careers, overcoming failure, love, friendships and relationships, religion and spirituality, beauty, health and wellness, mastering your mindset, and becoming your best self along the way.

Sharing the highs and lows and the real and raw parts of the story that no one talks about, I am Brelynn Hunt, A Work in Progress.

BEWARE of the GLAMOROUS Gap Year!

Season 1 · Episode 24

Sunday, July 9, 2023 • Duration 44:32

hi friends! in today's video we have the a work in progress podcast episode number 24 where I talk about my second (spring) semester in my pre-medical school program at meharry medical college, aka med school bootcamp! I’ll discuss everything from my program being virtual, my first impression vs end of semester thoughts and feelings, study groups, the program schedule (daily, quiz, exams), the classes I took and their difficulty, the professors, GPA, the MCAT and more!

For those of you all following in my footsteps or taking advice from my journey, it is my duty as your digital big sister and mentor to share with you, what I wish I would’ve known before entering into a new season, especially these pivotal gap years. It may not be perfect, or pretty, but you don’t have to have all of the answers right now and that is okay. It may not be good right now, but it will be good eventually because God causes all things to work together for our good and some of those ways are by how these experiences are shaping us for the professional student and ultimately the greater human we are becoming.

What I Wish I knew Before Taking the MCAT 3 Times

Season 1 · Episode 21

Sunday, March 12, 2023 • Duration 59:11

♡ S H O W N O T E S ♡

I decided not to vlog very much leading up to my mcat this time around because the time felt short and better used to supply my mental and think bank, but I did want to share about this experience, so these are my thoughts before receiving my score, but after studying for 6 weeks, and then taking the test for the 3rd time.

Of course in this recap, I’ll share about the things I think went well and what could’ve been better, so I’m considering this to be catch all video/podcast. If you’re listening to this because you asked me a question in my DMs and I sent you this link, that means I answered your question in great detail in this podcast and it was easier to let you listen than to leave you on read until I had the time to type out my response to this frequently asked question, so no shade, this is best for all of us!
