From Anger To Assignment

In 2019, Reggie George’s fourteen year old daughter was stabbed in the head with scissors by a classmate at school. Three months in the hospital. Two brain surgeries. A stroke. What Reggie did with his anger afterward became the foundation of a movement. During the legal proceedings, Reggie discovered the boy who hurt his daughter had grown up without a father figure. Instead of letting that fact fuel more rage, he turned it into a mission. He became an advocate for a solution, launching The Father Figure Movement and Father Figure Apparel around one simple standard: Be Present, Not Perfect.

In this episode, Reggie sits down with Carlton Young and on the Genesis Podcast to walk through how he processed unimaginable anger and turned it into an assignment. This is a conversation about fatherhood, trauma, forgiveness, and what it actually looks like to build something redemptive while you’re still standing in the middle of the crisis. If you’re a father trying to figure out what to do with pain that has nowhere to go, or if you’ve ever wondered how anger and purpose can occupy the same room, this episode is for you.
