  • Confidence is the Real Strategy w/ Maxie J
    Apr 15 2026
    Behind the glitz and the glam, Maxie J’s story is one of risk-taking behavior and radical faith. As a fashion entrepreneur, designer, and business owner, she gets real with host Sarah Jakes Roberts about how her love for fashion and confidence in her creative vision showed up early, long before validation ever did. After deciding corporate life was cute, but not the assignment—our good sis decided to go rogue and bet on herself, walking away from a 9-to-5 with severance in hand. But how did it really play out? In this conversation, Maxie J takes us through the ebbs and flows of entrepreneurship in a way that will ignite anyone building a purpose-driven career. The moral of the story is, your gift will make room for you, but you’ve got to go after it and trust God along the way.

  • Stop Playing Small, Darling w/ Emma Grede
    Apr 8 2026

    So much of what you need can be found within, but ambition has to find you working. Just ask Emma Grede, one of today's most influential and highly accomplished self-made women. Seemingly born rogue and unbothered by the rules, she and Sarah Jakes Roberts peel back the layers of how an East London upbringing taught her to move in truth, no matter the room. And let's not romanticize the process, sis. You'll face unenjoyable work, self-limiting beliefs that aren't yours, and emotions that take advantage of your patterns. But our girl Emma made it clear. It's the prerogative of a woman to look after herself. So start where it matters most—start with yourself and pre-order a copy of her book today!

  • Your Body is Trying to Tell You Something w/ Lupita Nyong'o
    Mar 25 2026

    In this deeply personal and compelling conversation, Sarah Jakes Roberts sits down with Academy Award–winning actress Lupita Nyong'o to shed light on a reality that far too many women endure in silence—living with uterine fibroids. These noncancerous tumors affect up to 80% of women and disproportionately impact Black women, yet they remain largely understudied. After facing this diagnosis herself, Lupita became a catalyst for advocacy, launching the Make Fibroids Count campaign to advance awareness and support research into less invasive treatment options. This episode underscores the critical truth that women deserve access to comprehensive medical resources, informed care, and a future in which our health is addressed with the urgency and seriousness it deserves.

  • Marked By Movement
    Mar 11 2026

    Our conversation surrounding the history of women who made history is far from over. In true homegirl fashion, Sarah Jakes Roberts challenges listeners to—yes—use your voice. But also…put some motion where your mouth is. After all, it takes faith to move, don't it? In this episode, she reflects on women whose stories were shaped by extraordinary resilience, like Harriet Tubman, Oprah Winfrey, and the Woman with the Issue of Blood. Each one a reminder that our role in God's kingdom calls us to embrace an identity marked by movement.

  • Well Said
    Mar 4 2026

    Never trusting her voice could add value, host Sarah Jakes Roberts dedicates this solo episode to women who made history by daring to use theirs. Staying quiet after you've been wronged or when you've done wrong may seem safe. But how many of you know that pain is never really silent? It longs for an audible expression. So much so that SJR looks back at women in history who had every reason to remain silent — we're talking Sojourner Truth, Tarana Burke, and the Samaritan Woman at the Well — all to give you the language you need. To all the quiet ones holding back, imagine your voice going rogue: what would it say, who would it move, and how would it impact the world?

But if fear's got you playing small and your faith needs a little deconstructing, lock in. This is your kind of carrying on!
