I didn't want to leave you hanging for the summer. I just wanted to do a quick life check. For you and for me. I'm hoping to return in the fall, but we'll just have to see what this season brings. I haven't shared much of my private life lately because I wanted to shine light on others who have experienced trauma in some way and have still become successful. They have also found their purpose. It is equally as important for you to ...

In this episode, I talk about how I've come to terms with my sin, how in the world I still remain calm co-parenting with my ex-abuser, and how I cope with the holidays after my family has been torn a...

If you don't follow me on social media, I went on a retreat at the beginning of this month to be with the Lord. I decided to do a 30 day detox upon return. I'm alive and well friends. This season will strictly be for interviews and I'll only be dropping on a monthly basis. ARE YOU READY!!??!?!

I also believe I misspoke, the correct term is missing white woman syndrome not missing person*

What has unraveled in my life over the past year is almost indescribable. I should probably be the most bitter, most angry, most depressed human being out there right now. But I AM NOT. Here's what I've been holding back. I'm telling you, you never know what someone is going through or what they've been through. I somehow managed to make it out the other side. For that, I am forever grateful. I hope this gives you a true understand...

I know I said last week was my last interview, but I've been trying to get this chic on my show for like 6 months. Haha, I'm so glad we got this conversation in before I close out the season. This is just another friendly reminder that you are not alone. You deserve better. You have a deeper calling.

In this episode, Kesha and I discuss what's it's like to overcome toxic/narcissistic abuse relationships with intimate partners. She'...

First, I had to bring this beat back from a previous episode because it's fire! I used it as an outro, so you didn't get to fully hear the magic made on the track. Excuse me for reusing, I just feel it didn't get the full credit it truly deserves. Secondly, as the title states, I finished reading the Bible in just over a year's time. Man, was it hard work. I talk about all the things I learned while reading it, specifically what I ...

I was supposed to drop this episode first thing this morning because I recorded late last night, but then I got my COVID shot. My arm is sore AF, so it's been slowing me down a tad.    My neighbors are moving, and I wish I could go with them. They've had a huge impact on my life. I really don't want them to go, but that's not how life works. I honor my Meemaw by reading a sermon she gave back in the 1990s. It's almost freaky becaus...

What is it like to be me? Well here's how my day went yesterday. My ex found out about my podcast/Instagram, and now he's hell bent on getting my daughter into day care or to be watched by a third party member (his girlfriend) while making my life hell in the process. YIKES. None of this makes sense to me. If you would like to help me understand, I'd be so grateful!   This episode’s attitude is sponsored by my period. Music : Hors...

Happy Resurrection Day! I wasn't going to post twice in one week, but you know sometimes I'm asked to do things I don't want to do. I watched 10 people get baptized at one singular service today. I sobbed like baby. I can’t explain how beautiful it is to witness that after you’ve gone through that spiritual experience as well. I don’t think I will ever be able to watch a baptism and not cry. I know, I’m so emotional. Bite me.  In t...

It's story time with Sierra while these interviews are in queue. Trust me, this is an episode you don't want to miss. In this episode, I talk about all the times I've had run-ins with the law. Gah, I can't believe I'm sharing this stuff, but I've learned a lot from the experiences. Plus I've been keeping myself out of trouble for quite sometime now. Ah, the days of carelessness and youth! Also just another reminder that nobody is p...
