Twenty years in radio taught me how to use my voice—but it also taught me how to hide behind it. I gave my all to the industry, thinking it was my forever. But what I didn’t realize was that radio had become my comfort zone… and my crutch. In this episode, I’m opening up about how GOD started nudging me—then pushing me—out of what was familiar and into my true calling. Losing my job wasn’t just a loss; it was a release. A release from fear, from people-pleasing, from playing small. I finally see that I don’t need a station to speak or a title to have impact. GOD gave me the gift, and HE gets the final say. If you’ve been shrinking, scared to leave your comfort zone, or waiting on man’s approval to walk in your purpose—this one’s for you.

In this episode of Walking Forward in Faith, I share a simple morning walk that turned into a powerful lesson on guarding our blessings. Watching a mama goose fiercely protect her babies reminded me of how we should be standing firm over what GOD has entrusted to us—our children, our dreams, and our peace. Sometimes, we have to hiss back at the distractions and negativity trying to creep in. Tune in as I unpack this lesson and encourage you to protect what’s yours with boldness and faith.

Have you ever had a dream so big it scared you—but not because it wasn’t possible, but because of the price tag attached? Yeah, me too. In this episode, I open up about a moment when I almost let money stop me from pursuing what GOD had already approved. But here's what I learned: provision follows obedience. If GOD gave you the vision, He’s already got the plan. Tune in as I share how I stopped letting my bank account dictate my next move and started trusting the One who owns it all. Let this be your reminder—fear might dress up as “not enough money,” but faith knows who the true Source is.

Sometimes, we receive gifts that don’t look the way we imagined—or that we don’t immediately know how to use. But what if we’re doing the same thing with the gifts GOD has given us? In this episode, we dive into why GOD’s gifts are meant to be used, not set aside, and how embracing them can bring purpose and blessing to our lives and others. Let’s stop overlooking what He’s placed in our hands and start walking boldly in our calling! Stay blessed, stay focused, and keep walking forward in faith!

Some battles ain’t physical—they’re spiritual. In this episode, we’re digging into what it really means when the enemy attacks your peace, your purpose, and your mind. I’m sharing personal moments when I thought I was fighting people, but it was really a spiritual war. If you’ve been feeling heavy, misunderstood, or under pressure for no clear reason, this is your sign to suit up in faith and recognize the real fight. Ephesians 6:12 reminds us: it’s not them, it’s the spirit behind it.

In this episode, I share a real-life lesson that hit my spirit at an Easter egg hunt. My son showed up with a cracked basket—but still left with the golden egg. Whew. Just like that, GOD reminded me: even what’s broken can still be used. If you’ve been feeling like your cracks disqualify you, this one’s for you. You’re not too damaged for the blessing—GOD can still make it fit.

Somebody told me I looked a mess ... but they had no clue what kind of healing I was fighting through. In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on what real growth looks like—uncute, uncomfortable, but covered by GOD. If you’ve ever been judged by your outside while your inside is under construction, this one’s for you.

In this episode, we’re tackling the fear that holds us back from walking boldly in our God-given gifts. Too often, we let other people’s opinions and doubts keep us from stepping into the calling GOD placed on our lives. But the truth is—your gift was given to you by GOD, and it’s time to stop apologizing for it.

Fear tries to stop us, but faith can push us forward. It’s time to stop shrinking your gifts to make others comfortable and start walking in the power and purpose GOD has already equipped you with. You were chosen for this moment, and the world is waiting for you to step into your calling.

In this episode, I open up about the struggle of constantly pouring into everyone else while running on empty, the guilt of resting when my husband also needs a break, and the importance of giving ourselves permission to pause. Even JESUS rested—so why do we think we have to be superhuman?

If you’ve been feeling drained, stretched too thin, or guilty for simply needing a break, this episode is for you.

Today, I did everything right—worked out, wrote, prayed, even had someone come pray over my home. And still... I was mad. Mad I’m still in the city that hurt me. Mad at reminders of what I lost. In this episode, I’m getting honest about what it feels like when healing doesn’t happen as fast as we want—and how I’m learning to trust that GOD is still moving, even when I feel stuck. If you’ve ever asked, “Why am I still here?”... this one’s for you.
