From Setbacks to Sistas: The Real Journey with Mignon

Welcome back to Let’s Try This Again—I’m your host, B Simone, and this episode is one of the most honest, vulnerable, and spiritually charged conversations I’ve ever had. I’m joined by the incredible Mignon, actress, creative, and all-around powerhouse, as we get real about the journey to self-acceptance, the weight of spiritual warfare, and how success often looks nothing like what we imagined. We open up about body image struggles, generational trauma, and the pressure of living up to expectations—Mignon shares how her journey with weight and self-worth began in childhood, shaped by family and early experiences of trauma, and how she’s learned to fight for her confidence and peace in an industry that’s quick to judge.

We talk about what it means to “fight for everything”—from your health to your purpose—and how sometimes the biggest battles are spiritual, not physical. Mignon shares her story of living out of her car, hustling behind the scenes in Hollywood, and finally landing her breakout role on “Sistas” after years of setbacks, faith, and relentless perseverance. We dive deep into the difference between jealousy and envy, the importance of discernment, and why loving yourself (and others) through pain is the ultimate act of growth. If you’ve ever felt worn down by life, doubted your calling, or needed a reminder that your story matters, this episode is for you. Tune in for laughter, wisdom, and the kind of motivation that reminds you: you are enough, you are worthy, and you’re never alone on this journey.
