In this raw, unfiltered, and truly moving episode, I sit down with the incredible Ashunta J, a 39-year-old woman with no children, recently divorced, and boldly starting over after surviving the storms of life literally and spiritually.
From the emotional aftermath of Hurricane Helen, to navigating toxic family dynamics, abusive relationships, and the pain of broken marriage, Ashunta shares how she’s reclaiming her identity and rediscovering wholeness in a season of restoration.
This episode meant a lot to me personally not just because of the strength in Ashunta’s story, but because the entire episode was the true definition of unscripted faith.
As a single mother, I had to record this episode at the park, with all the sounds of the environment and the responsibilities of motherhood pressing in but nothing stopped us. We didn’t let distractions or challenges shake the power of what was being birthed in that moment. This was real-life ministry in motion.
If you’ve ever had to start over from the ground up tired, unsure, but still believing this episode is for you.
It’s about surviving, healing, and becoming whole again, one brave step at a time. Tune in, be encouraged, and know this: Your survival wasn’t the end it was the beginning.
*Remember, my podcast is not scripted. I am in the projects, working on my projects, trying to make it out of the projects. This is a safe place where you feel free and open. What you hear is what you receive. We don’t hide who we are. We are real, we are living, and we are just being the humans that God called us to be. We are not always perfect, but we continue to strive for perfection.
