“Waves will come, but so will you. Keep swimming, sis.”
In this soul-stirring episode, we sit down with Yoshi, a multi-talented artist, woman of faith, and military wife, as she opens up about the unseen strength it takes to stay afloat when life keeps throwing waves your way.
From childhood struggles to the emotional toll of constant transition, Yoshi vulnerably shares how her life has been a series of deep waters—yet every stroke through those waters shaped the masterpiece she's becoming.
Growing up in a military household, she once vowed she’d never become a military wife. But God had other plans.
Now, as a military spouse herself, she reflects on how every pain, every move, and every tear has prepared her to wear this title with grace, grit, and power. Through it all, she’s found her voice—and her healing—through art. What started as an outlet to survive has now become her platform to inspire.
Yoshi shows us what it really means to bloom through brokenness, create from chaos, and stand tall through silent storms. This episode is for every woman who’s had to hold it down when her world felt unsteady. You’re not alone. Keep swimming.
