Deeply Well with Devi Brown

WeezyWTF (co-host of Decisions, Decisions, founder of WTF Media, producer, bestselling author of No Holes Barred, and creator of the NYC fitness studio TrapHaus) joins us to discuss what it really means to grow beyond the version of yourself the internet thinks it knows.

Weezy is unapologetically and unconventionally herself, and that's exactly why we love her. In this episode, she speaks candidly about love, marriage, and why, ultimately, "love is not enough" to sustain any relationship. Devi and Weezy also dive into entrepreneurship, obsession, and how the things she genuinely enjoys, even the taboo ones, become the roadmap for her success.

Today, Devi is reminding you that “life is hard,” and if you’re living with chronic pain, autoimmune issues, or ADHD, it takes patience, self-advocacy, and finding what actually supports you day to day. 
During Devi’s visit to the Sha Wellness Clinic in Cancun, an intentional reset for her personal health, modern medicine + holistic care, VO2 max testing, ICARUS, osteopathy, scans, acupuncture, and biofeedback, she realized she's been in fight-or-flight for five months despite all the wonderful moments that also occurred during this period.

The question that has been circling and the idea of being seen has been at the forefront. What does it really mean to be “seen,” and why chasing it can give away your power? “No one is ever going to fully see you… But do you see you?” and we land on this truth: “It’s on God’s time. You still got to do it… even if no one notices.” 

It is important to know that who you are must exist beyond the share button of exposure. Because the more time you spend seeing yourself, the more deliberate and conscious you can become towards your direct healing needs.

You are not alone in your creativity, whether it is music, filmmaking, or another expression. The ability to create offers many opportunities to heal, connect and transform everyone it encounters.

Devi sits with Grammy-winning producer Dahi who shares how his upcoming project, Black Boy Alternative, came from long seasons of self-reflection, false starts, and finally a “let God in the room” jam session approach that unlocked the story he actually wanted to tell. He explains why music can be his church, what it means to be a “Black Boy” outside the box, and offers simple yet extremely important soul work: “pray…give thanks…ask for guidance” so the weight isn’t all on you.

The summer is already almost over, and Devi shares what this fast-moving, “grief and joy happening all at once” summer is teaching her, especially how to stay present when everything feels like it’s shifting. Although there may also be a lot of positive personal shifts, it is our practice that keeps us rooted in our authentic power.

This episode feels like a real permission slip to stop chasing the version of success that looks good and start listening to what’s actually true inside of you. Dr. Julius Thomas shares how becoming the highest-paid tight end in the NFL didn’t bring peace: “the year of my life that I made the most money was also the year that I was suffering the most”, and how that forced him to face how “cold” and emotionally disconnected he’d become. You’ll hear what it really takes to pivot without turning it into a “brand update”. 

Soul Work: Write down the gift “no one else can see,” then choose bravery and show it.

This is a real insight into a longtime friendship between Devi and Nina Parker; they talk candidly about what it looks like to choose yourself when your life looks “successful” on the outside while hiding underlying turmoil internally. Nina shares how therapy helped her stop curating relationships and finally prioritize peace, starting with the simple question, “Do I wanna go? Do I like these people?” Simple questions that are somehow avoided during the decision process. She opens up about surviving an abusive relationship, how grief and public pressure can make you perform instead of dedicating real time towards healing, and why self-awareness only matters when your choices change.

Devi sits down with Koya Webb to explore what it means to thrive without perfection—through intentional choices, genuine self-worth, and practices that help regulate the nervous system. Koya reflects on a year that brought both marriage and profound loss, including a car accident, miscarriage, and the deaths of loved ones. Through it all, she discovered that grief can become “the accelerator for embodiment.”

With refreshing honesty, Koya shares that even after years of wellness practice, she found herself dysregulated, lonely, and needing to deepen her relationships and support system. This conversation is a powerful reminder that wellbeing isn't defined by what we achieve, but by whether we feel connected, supported, and like we truly belong. As Koya notes, having community and a sense of belonging is one of the strongest indicators of longevity and overall well-being.

Together, they discuss what it really looks like to design a meaningful life while navigating grief, pressure, and leadership. Koya shares how transforming everyday routines into rituals, intentionally creating beauty and joy, and returning to the breath can help us come back to ourselves. The breath is the master.

You'll also hear powerful insights on boundaries, leadership, and choosing alignment over people-pleasing, along with Koya's invitation into deeper healing through a seven-day breathwork experience inspired by her book.

Devi sits down with Krista Williams (Almost 30) for a real conversation about what it takes to come back home to yourself, especially through your body, your boundaries, and your relationships. Krista shares how book launch burnout left her feeling disconnected from something she’s proud of, and how she learned to stop scanning for who didn’t show up and instead focus on who did. She opens up  about growing up with intense pressure to be thin, bingeing as a way to numb pain, and how healing began when she shifted from fixing herself to “more deeply understanding myself rather than fix myself.” She offers a simple path: "allow and accept and embrace,” and reframes the body as a spiritual instrument.

This episode is the kind of conversation that makes you exhale. Jamilah Lemieux joins the show to talk about her book, Black Single Mother - the title alone has had the internet buzzing around the topic.  Lemieux breaks down how single motherhood is a spectrum, not a stereotype, and how the current wave of public contempt is often about control, to place labels and struggle upon. 

If you’re dating as a single mom, her advice is practical and protective: be intentional, don’t rush introductions, and “listen to what they say. Believe what they say.” They also name how respectability politics and patriarchy shape shame in Black families, and why mothers deserve full lives: “Don’t write yourself out of the agenda… Include yourself.”
