“I lost him… because of who I was.”

Before the titles, before the spotlight, there was a moment that forced Leslia Miller-Brice to confront a hard truth — her strength, the very thing that made her powerful, was also costing her the life and love she wanted.

In this deeply personal episode of Mentor Me, Leslia shares the story behind the transformation:

• growing up between two households and finding her identity • being raised by strong women in an inner-city community • how her aggressive nature impacted her relationships • the moment everything broke — and what it forced her to face • how faith, self-awareness, and responsibility changed her life • her journey into leadership, politics, and service in Seabreeze

This is not just a story about success.

It’s a story about truth, growth, and becoming.

If you’ve ever struggled with being misunderstood, too strong, or afraid that who you are might cost you what you love — this conversation will stay with you.
