This podcast was created because your host, Toya realized that when we go through things in life that knock us off of our square we tend to withdraw ourselves; thinking that we’re going through a struggle that no one can understand. When in reality, there are so many people who share our experiences. Dealing with the ebs and flows of life stretch across lines of race, gender, age, and even time. But my goal is to reassure you that just how our struggles can be universal, so can our strength. But we’re never too serious to share some “tea”, laughs, and crazy and light stories. That’s why I’m here, that’s why you’ll join the family. Universal Teas; the People’s Podcast.
What does it really mean to be called? And what does it take to actually move?
In this episode, we break down the true meaning of action and unpack what a calling really is. Because having a calling and believing in it are two very different things.
I challenge you to first believe that the vision, the nudge, the idea, the pull on your life is real. That it chose you for a reason. Then we talk about building the confi...
Even if life got loud.
Even if you got distracted.
Even if the plan didn’t unfold the way you imagined.
In this episode, we’re talking about what it means to still believe in your calling when life throws curveballs, delays the timeline, or pulls your focus in every direction. This is a reminder that your purpose didn’t disappear just because you had to survive, adjust, or pause.
I’m inviting you to step awa...

Friend, I know. Its been way too long. But as I was preparing to get back into the swing if being on the mic; I found some old episodes in the vault. This never released episode called "I Dont Fail" is a super timely reminder that YOU GOT THIS! If you've been feeling like you're in your own way, like fear is leading you, or if you've been doubting yourself. This episode is for you. I love yo...
Friend, friend, friend. Its you! That has to do, say it, start it, and make it happen! That vision is yours and it is your responsibility to give it to the world. You have to give yourself permission to become the master and grace to sometimes fall short. Don't letting anything stop you, not even your own self doubt. I love you!

Hey friend hey! So I wanna start off with a questions. Why do you feel so strongly about become a "new" person? Why do you feel like you have to reinvent yourself in order to truly feel successful and fulfilled? Why don't you understand that who you are is already amazing. You have value, and greatness that maybe you just need to figure out how to enhance. Idk, just food for thought. But don't wo...
