  • This Wasn't the Plan S2.Ep.33
    Apr 1 2026

    Life is changing… and this time, my kids feel it too.

    In this episode, I’m taking y’all into a real moment I had with my daughters ; one that caught me completely off guard. We were fine… and then suddenly, we weren’t. Tears, hard truths, and the realization that this wasn’t the plan.

    My children are grieving the idea of a family that’s not coming back… and at the same time, I’m grieving too.

    The hardest part?
    I’m trying to guide them through emotions I’ve never personally experienced.

    This version of motherhood… my mom never had to go through it.
    So I’m learning in real time — how to hold space for them, while still figuring out how to hold myself.

    We talk about:

    • What it feels like when your kids start to understand the shift
    • Carrying your pain and theirs at the same time
    • Learning your children’s different emotional languages
    • Being the safe space… even when you’re hurting too
    • And how I’m redefining motherhood in a season that feels like a beautiful disaster

    This episode isn’t polished.It’s honest.It’s heavy.

    But it’s also full of love.

    Because even in the breaking… we’re still building something real.If you’ve ever felt like you had to be strong for everybody while quietly falling apart… this one is for you.

  • The Weight of Expectations S2.Ep.32
    Mar 21 2026

    Sometimes it’s not love that’s exhausting… it’s the expectations we attach to it.

    In this episode, I’m reflecting on relationships, heartbreak, and what it really takes to heal and move forward. I open up about how expectations—both spoken and unspoken—can quietly drain us, especially when we’re holding onto what we thought something should be.

    We’re talking about:

    • How expectations shape (and sometimes damage) our relationships

    • The emotional weight of heartbreak and unmet expectations

    • Learning to trust yourself again after things don’t work out

    • Letting go of control and unrealistic ideals

    • What it looks like to heal, reset, and move differently

    Because the truth is…
    when you learn to manage your expectations, you protect your peace.

    This episode is for the woman who’s ready to stop forcing, stop overextending, and start choosing herself—fully and unapologetically.

  • What Are You Chasing?
    Mar 4 2026

    Most of us have heard the phrase “chase your dreams.”
    But somewhere along the way — especially in hustle culture — we started taking that literally.

    In this episode, I’m talking about what it really means to chase… and how that mindset can quietly turn into exhaustion, comparison, and constantly feeling like you’re behind.

    As women, we’ve been conditioned to chase — approval, partnership, perfection, beauty standards, validation. And sometimes we’re moving so fast toward the next thing that we don’t even enjoy what we once prayed for.

    I open up about moments in my own life where I realized I wasn’t building — I was chasing. Chasing the idea of family. Chasing timelines. Chasing the picture instead of doing the inner work. And how slowing down changed everything.

    We also talk about hustle culture, self-esteem, body image, relationships, and why being alone isn’t a punishment — it can actually be clarity.

    In honor of Women’s History Month, I reflect on the legacy of Shirley Chisholm and what it means to be “unbought and unbossed” in a world that constantly pressures women to perform.

    This isn’t a step-by-step guide.
    It’s a safe space to reflect.

    If you’ve been feeling tired, anxious, or like you’re always reaching for the next thing… this conversation is for you.

    Maybe the goal isn’t to chase.
    Maybe the goal is to become.
