  • Protecting My Peace: Boundaries in My Soft Season

    Protecting My Peace: Boundaries in My Soft Season
    Dec 20 2025
    In today’s episode, I share a gentle reflection on boundaries, growth, and choosing peace without guilt. This conversation is rooted in a blog post I wrote earlier this year and expanded through lived experience, faith, and quiet discernment.
    In this episode, we talk about:
    • Accepting people as they are — not who we hope they’ll become
    • Letting go of expecting ourselves from others
    • Why boundaries are an act of self-respect
    • The truth about kindness, quietness, and strength
    • Watching actions instead of words
    • Picking battles wisely and trusting God with the rest
    • Holding standards while living softly

  • Still Standing: A Testimony of Strength

    Still Standing: A Testimony of Strength
    Aug 7 2025
    In this powerful and deeply personal episode, I’m sharing a chapter of my life that many never knew — and some tried to use against me. By 2011, I had already been divorced, was raising three boys, and found myself navigating one of the hardest seasons I’ve ever faced. From shelter life, pregnancy, judgment, and isolation… to strength, survival, and God’s grace — this is my story of standing strong when everything seemed to fall apart.
    This episode isn’t about pity — it’s about purpose. It’s for every mama, every woman, every person who’s been counted out, talked about, and pushed to the edge but still chose to keep going.
    ✨ Affirmation included at the end🎧 Listen, reflect, and be reminded: you are stronger than your storm.

  • Uncovering the DNA of Me

    Uncovering the DNA of Me
    Jul 30 2025
    Season 2 - Stripped: Life Be Lifein (Episode 2)
    This episode is different—raw, real, and long overdue. For 45 years, I’ve carried questions about who I am and where I come from. Questions that were never answered… until now.
    Taking a DNA test wasn’t just about learning where I’m from—it was about finally giving myself permission to let go of silence, shame, and the weight of missing pieces.
    I want to be clear: this is not to bash or blame. This is about me—healing, releasing, and uncovering the DNA of my story.

  • The Burnout You Ain’t Talking About

    The Burnout You Ain’t Talking About
    Jul 21 2025

    Episode 1 – Season 2: Stripped – Life Be Lifein’
    Burnout isn’t just being tired—it’s disappearing while still showing up.
    In this opener, I get real about the moment I broke down—physically, emotionally, and spiritually. I share the story of juggling motherhood, building a business during the pandemic, and grieving in silence while disconnected from family and faith.
    I wasn’t just overwhelmed… I was isolated, misrepresented, and spiritually numb.
    This episode cracks open the parts we’re told to push through. Because healing didn’t start with hustle—it started with honesty.
