What if the key to your next chapter was hidden in your first?
In Part 1 of this raw, two-part conversation, host Dwayne Barnes sits down with the powerful and unfiltered Fee King—actor, writer, NAACP-nominated solo performer, and the living blueprint of what it means to rise after 50.
Before the coaching, before the spotlight, before the reinvention… there was a little girl who witnessed the unthinkable:
* Her mother being shot by a boyfriend
* Being taken to doctor’s offices to fake symptoms for street prescriptions
* Growing up with Nostradamus predictions that convinced her the world would end in 1999
And yet, even through that chaos, Fee held a desire to do better and be better.In this first half of her journey, she shares the pivotal point that changed everything: the day her mother passed — and the compassion, patience, and power that awakened inside her afterward.
💥 Topics in Part 1:
* Childhood trauma, confusion, and survival
* Spiritual identity, self-worth, and early pivots
* The hidden cost of being the “strong one”
* How compassion becomes a superpower after loss
This episode isn’t just storytelling — it’s soul work.And it’s only the beginning.
