In this raw and powerful episode, I sit down with Tiara René Walton. A woman whose transformation will leave you breathless. Once a nationally ranked exotic dancer and founder of Mizhani Pole Fitness, Tiara shares her bold journey of walking away from the spotlight, surrendering to divine calling, and choosing healing over hustle.
We explore what it means to shed the physical and emotional layers placed upon us by culture and trauma, including her courageous decision to remove illegal butt injections and breast implants. From body shame to soul surrender, Tiara opens up about what it truly means to be restored by God.
This episode is for the woman who:
Is battling shame from her past.
Feels stuck in a version of herself that no longer aligns.
Is craving healing, faith, and transformation.
Tiara reminds us that no matter how far we think we’ve gone, grace goes further.
What We Talk About:
Tiara’s Detroit roots and how her upbringing shaped her early identity
Life as an exotic dancer and the unseen pain behind the glamour
Her wake-up call to leave the industry and embrace her spiritual calling
Why she chose to remove her illegal body modifications—and how it set her free
Redefining beauty, purpose, and womanhood on her own terms
The power of daily prayer, poetry, and devotion
How to walk in your truth without an apology
