  • CommUNITY Love
    Jan 8 2026

    This season finale is a love letter.

    In Being in Community Gives Us Momentum, Predencia reflects on the truth that she was never made in a solo act. From faith and family to chosen people who showed up in real, human ways, this episode honors the weight of community, the prayers, provision, presence, and patience that helped shape her journey.

    Through the lens of Carat, Cut, and Clarity, Predencia explores how community carries substance, how it refines us through truth and love, and how clarity reveals the difference between friendship and true belonging. This episode celebrates the people who poured in, stood firm, and added real weight to the shine, reminding us that momentum isn’t built alone, it’s built together.

    A reflective, faith-rooted close to Season One, this episode invites listeners to recognize their own communities, honor the humanity of others, and take a bow for the roles they’ve played, seen and unseen in the stories they’re helping write.

  • Dear MK: The Season Will Pass
    Nov 11 2025

    In this tender and transparent episode, Dear MK: The Season Will Pass, Auntie Denden opens up about navigating depression, faith, and self-awareness through the changing seasons of life. Framed as a love letter to her niece, MK, this episode unfolds through the Carat, Cut, and Clarity framework, revealing how healing rarely happens in isolation, how community interrupts old lies, and how even in the coldest moments, God is still redeeming every chapter. With honesty and grace, Denden reflects on her own winters of the soul, the lessons learned in stillness, and the quiet ways faith keeps her grounded when the light feels far away. It’s both a testimony and a prayer for her niece, for herself, and for anyone enduring a season that feels endless, a reminder that even when warmth feels distant, it’s already on the way.

  • LUSTerina (We Must FLEE)
    Oct 24 2025

    In this deeply personal episode, Lusterina, I explore the tension between desire and divinity the ways lust can both wound and awaken us. Through my own story of childhood abuse, teenage secrecy, and the slow work of redemption, I uncover what happens when the fire that once consumed you becomes the light that refines you.

    This isn’t just about lust it’s about Lusterina: the glow that remains after God redeems the parts of us we thought were too dark to be seen.

    From the weight of desire (Carat), to the wound of experience (Cut), to the surrender that brings healing (Clarity), this episode is a testimony of how confession, community, and grace can turn shame into shine.

    Because God doesn’t change your nature, he redeems it. And even lust, in His hands, can become light
