In this solo episode, I get real about what it looks like to grow in private when nobody is clapping for you. I open up about being off social media for almost six months, bulk recording episodes, walking into meetings in my “raw” natural state, and realizing how much of my confidence used to be tied to validation. From sitting in a producer’s office questioning my slick-back bun and sauna sweats, to asking myself why I feel the urge to post every win, I had to confront whether I’m disciplined… or just addicted to applause.

I talk about replacing posting with journaling, prayer, and obedience. About not announcing the goal — just finishing. About fasting without telling anyone. About going to the gym at 6 a.m. with no camera. About letting God build me in the prayer room instead of on a platform. This episode is about moving in swift obedience, walking in true authority, and becoming the woman God called me to be — even when nobody sees it.

In this episode, I sit down with Ben Reilly and we talk honestly about what it really looks like to walk in your calling while still figuring life out. From navigating the pressure of being a full-time artist and the “what have you done for me lately?” mentality, to learning taxes, finances, and identity in the industry, this conversation is about staying grounded when the world keeps moving the goalpost.

We get into creativity beyond music — acting, directing, cooking — and how God can use every passion you have, not just the one people expect. Ben opens up about his relationship with his mom, church hurt, separating God from people, and choosing to create from authenticity instead of validation. This episode is a reminder that your journey doesn’t have to look polished to be powerful.

In this episode, I’m riding the high of just wrapping my first film — producing, co-directing, writing, and starring in an LTTA production — and reflecting on what it feels like to start something from a small seed and watch it grow. From DM’ing a creator I admired, to collaborating for six months, to standing on set with people like Pretty V, DC Young Fly, and Saraya, I talk about trusting your creativity, betting on yourself, and letting joy lead instead of pressure.

Then I sit down with Durelle and Samantha Bailey, a married couple whose story stopped me in my tracks. We unpack childhood trauma, abuse, anxiety, and trust — from Durelle surviving homelessness, family betrayal, and being institutionalized as a teenager, to Samantha growing up in a loving home while carrying silent stress and responsibility. Together, we talk about how two people from completely different backgrounds learned to communicate, heal, trust, and build a Christ-centered marriage rooted in peace instead of chaos. This episode is raw, emotional, funny, and deeply healing — especially if you’re navigating relationships, faith, or learning how to stay in your own lane.
