Hey my lilies 🌺
When we talk about inspiration, we can’t leave out music. Music has always been more than sound—it’s an expression of truth, struggle, and freedom. In this episode of Ink&Impact, we’re reflecting on one of the most influential groups in hip hop history: N.W.A. From Compton’s raw reality to shaping a culture, Dr. Dre, Eazy-E, and Ice Cube left behind legacies that teach us about following dreams, standing on val...

Hey my lilies 🌺—today we’re stepping back into 480 BC, where freedom and empire collided at the narrow pass of Thermopylae. This episode dives deep into what it meant to be Greek, the legendary stand of King Leonidas and his 300 Spartans, and how the film 300 brought their sacrifice to life.

We’ll uncover the history, the fiction, and the metaphors that remind us what it means to lead, to discern, and to leave a legacy. Because th...

Hey my Lilies 🌺,

In Episode 20, we dive deep into the moments that shape us—the wins, the lessons, and the quiet reflections that often go unnoticed. This episode is all about perspective: seeing the growth in your journey, finding strength in unexpected places, and embracing the seasons of change that God gracefully weaves into our lives. 🌿

Whether you’re sipping tea, journaling, or just taking a pause in your day, let this epis...

Hey my Lilies 🌺

In this episode of Ink & Impact, we dive into the streets of Paid in Full — not just as a movie, but as a mirror. Through Ace’s quiet code, Mitch’s love for the hustle, and Rico’s reckless greed, we unpack what it really means to be “paid in full.”

Is it money? Status? Power? Or is it peace, freedom, and knowing that the life you’re building actually loves you back?

With raw dialogue, real stats, and soul-stirr...

Hey my Lilies 🌺

In this episode of Ink & Impact, we step through the pantry with Jake Epping in Stephen King’s 11/22/63 and walk straight into one of history’s darkest days — the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.

We break down the timeline of November 22, 1963, the infamous single-bullet theory, and the troubled path of Lee Harvey Oswald. But more than history, we wrestle with the big question: fate vs. free will.

Hey my lilies 🌺,

This episode is one of the heaviest and most personal I’ve ever shared. In August 2015, I lost my baby cousin Jordan to gun violence, and in September 2023, my older cousin Redrick was taken from us through jail violence. Two different paths, two different stories, but both lives stolen too soon.

In this episode, I honor their memories while reflecting on the reality our young men face every day — wrong place, wrong...

In this episode of Ink & Impact, we dive deep into the concept of giants—those towering figures and ideas that have shaped our world. From biblical references to modern metaphors, discover how these giants influence our everyday decisions, creativity, and growth.

In Episode 14 of Ink & Impact, we’re celebrating the real soldiers—the parents, the caregivers, and the strong souls who show up every day despite the struggles. From the morning rush to late-night reflections, your choices matter more than you know.

We’ll dive into why stillness is powerful, how your decisions shape generations, and why giving yourself grace in the journey is so important.

Hey my lilies, 🌺
We’ve asked the question. We’ve shared the testimonies. Now, it’s time to apply it. In this final part of the Who Do You Trust? series, we explore how to move from head knowledge to heart action. How do you keep your trust rooted in God when life feels unpredictable? This episode is your blueprint for walking it out—faithfully, boldly, and intentionally.

Hey my lilies 🌺
In this continuation of our “Who Do You Trust?” series, we dive into the moments when our way meets God’s way—and how trust becomes a testimony. Brandye and I reflect on the unexplainable, those times when God showed up in ways that defied logic and left no doubt that He was in control.

If you’ve ever had a season where faith had to carry you further than reason, this episode is for you.

Hey my lilies 🌺
Today’s episode is all about trust—what it really means and where we choose to place it. Some people trust in the universe, others in people, but what happens when we shift that trust to God?

In this episode, I sit down with one of our lilies, Brandye, to talk about why trusting in God is different, why it matters, and how it changes everything. This is just Part 1 of our conversation, and trust me, you don’t want ...

🎙️ Hey my lilies 🌺
In this soul-stirring episode of Ink & Impact, we honor Zora Neale Hurston — a woman who wrote the truth even when the world wasn’t listening. We explore what it means to become, to write without applause, and to trust that silent seeds still bloom.

From navigating identity to writing through uncertainty, this episode is a call to every woman who’s still figuring it out — and still showing up anyway.

In this episode, we journey into the mystery of black holes — not just the ones in space, but the ones we sometimes carry within. We explore Sagittarius A, event horizons, and the gripping reality of spaghettification (yes, that’s a real thing 😳). But more than that, we ask the deeper questions: What does it mean to walk toward the unknown? What happens when life collapses inward? And how do faith, science, and sp...

Welcome to Episode 9: “Theory to Testimony: Faith and Science Aren’t Enemies”

Today, we’re diving into the deep — the sacred space where belief meets brilliance.
We often separate science from spirit, but what if they were never meant to be rivals? What if God was always the origin behind the equation, the blueprint in the breakthrough, the breath behind every theory?

🌺 Hey my Lilies,

In this episode, we’re exploring the Seeds of Doubt — the tension between Newton and Einstein that led to one of the greatest breakthroughs in how we understand our universe.

Einstein didn’t destroy Newton’s work—he built on it. What began as a challenge became a foundation. And sometimes… that’s how life works for us too.

🌺 Hey my Lilies,

This episode is all about Silent Roots — the women who shaped greatness from behind the scenes.
We’re highlighting Mileva Marić, Einstein’s first wife, whose impact wasn’t loud but deeply powerful.
Just like Deborah in Judges 4, she reminds us: not all strength is seen.

💡 Theme: Just because it’s unseen doesn’t mean it’s not impactful.
