In this week’s episode of the Beats & Balance Podcast, host Tinora Locke-Terrefe is joined by Malaysia Harrell—a board-certified psychotherapist, keynote speaker, best-selling author, and the founder of Blissful Life Consulting. A proud veteran and tireless advocate for mental wellness, Malaysia shares her powerful journey from military service to spiritual awakening.
She opens up about how her experiences shaped her resilience and leadership, and how a near-death experience became the turning point that led her to embrace spirituality and soul alignment. Today, Malaysia helps high-achieving women shift from performance-based living to purpose-driven leadership, guiding them toward authenticity, surrender, and a deeper sense of community.
In this conversation, Malaysia reflects on the impact of generational trauma, the connection between mental health and the body, and the importance of embracing spiritual gifts as tools for transformation. Her story offers wisdom, encouragement, and a roadmap for women seeking healing and fulfillment beyond external success.
Malaysia’s upcoming book, Good Has My 6, will be released this fall, and she is also hosting a Women’s Retreat in Virginia this November designed for women seeking renewal and alignment. To learn more about her work, visit malaysiaharrell.com.
