  • Are You a Builder, Dreamer, or Visionary? How to Know Your Season | FT JD Fomby | EP136
    Description:
    Are you a builder, a dreamer, or a visionary—and do you know what season you’re in?
    In this episode, Desiree and I sit down with Coach JD Fomby for a real conversation about what it means to build on purpose in 2026. We talk delegation, emotional bandwidth, protecting your circle, and why “doing the work” matters more than chasing a moment.
    If you’re navigating growth, leadership, entrepreneurship, ministry, or a brand you’re trying to build—this one is for you.

  • The Year of the Builder: Trusting God’s Plan When Life Shifts | with Desiree Danielle | EP135
    Description:
    Are you ready for a thought-provoking, honest conversation about building in uncomfortable places? What about trusting God’s timing and releasing shame before stepping into a new season?

    Using Jeremiah 29 as our foundation, Desiree and I unpack what it really means to build, plant, and multiply—even when you’re not where you thought you’d be. This episode speaks directly to leaders, builders, entrepreneurs, and anyone navigating transition, relocation, or starting over.

    In this episode, we talk about:
    Why obedience matters more than clarity
    Building structure in unfamiliar seasons
    Planting roots in places that don’t feel permanent
    Releasing shame before stepping into purpose
    Trusting God’s plan even when the location changes
    Why community is essential to building well

    This conversation is for the person who said “yes” to God—but didn’t expect the process to look like this.

    🎧 New episodes of Jess Ask the Podcast drop every Thursday.

    Jessica and her sister Kendal (Kendal Tried It) open up about divorce, co-parenting, and what it means to choose yourself without abandoning the people you love.

  • Becoming Her: Healing, Motherhood & Rewriting Your Story | ft. Tiffany N. White | EP133
    Description:
    In this powerful and deeply transparent episode, Jess sits with Tiffany N. White for one of the most honest and transformative conversations yet. Tiffany opens up about everything: her journey to earning her GED in five days, navigating motherhood as a young single mom, attending an HBCU as a white woman, dealing with online assumptions, rebuilding self-worth, and learning how to flourish after years of survival mode.

    They talk identity, healing, boundaries, womanhood, friendships, influence, generational cycles, and what it really takes to become the woman God intended.

    If you’ve ever questioned who you’re becoming, felt stuck between who you were and who you’re called to be, or struggled with rebuilding your life from the inside out — this episode is for you.

  • Don’t Fail in Fear: Faith, Femininity & Finding Yourself | FT Britta Tabor | EP132
    Description:
    In this honest and healing conversation, Jess sits down with Britta Tabor for a transparent look at confidence, calling, femininity, divorce, and the fear of stepping into what God is asking you to do. Britta opens up about rebuilding life after 30+ years of marriage, navigating loneliness, finding herself again, and learning how to show up authentically — online and in real life.

    They also dive into fashion identity, dating as an alpha woman, and what it really means to trust God in a waiting season. If you’ve ever struggled with being “too strong,” feared success, or felt the tension between who you’ve been and who you’re becoming… this episode is for you. 

    Key Quote:
    “Don’t fail in fear. Do it afraid — your faith will outrun your fear.” — Britta Tabor

    New episodes every Thursday.

  • When Worship Hurts: Homelessness, Healing & Hearing God | ft. Ricka Riley | EP131
    Description:
    In this deeply transparent episode, Jess sits down with Ricka Riley — worship leader, psalmist, intercessor, and survivor — for one of the most powerful conversations of the season. Ricka opens up about worship beyond the microphone: sacrifice, surrender, dying to self, and learning that real worship begins where comfort ends.

    She shares her story of living homeless for three years, surviving verbal and physical abuse at home, navigating church hurt, and wrestling with anger toward God — all while serving, leading worship, and trying to stay faithful. Ricka also discusses her deliverance from 13 years of pornography addiction, how generational patterns show up in our lives, and what it means to break cycles for the sake of your bloodline.

    We talk psalmistry, prophetic sound, how to discern the heart of God, why setlists can’t carry the oil, and the difference between surviving and surrendering. 

    In this episode we cover:
    • What worship truly is (and why it requires death)
    • Homelessness, shame, and spiritual survival
    • The difference between pain and dying to self
    • Prophetic worship vs. worship leading
    • Porn addiction & breaking sexual strongholds
    • Abuse, trauma, and emotional muzzling
    • Generational bondage and unfinished business
    • Navigating sexuality as a prophetic woman
    • Waiting for marriage & staying pure

    Question of the Episode:
    What part of Ricka’s story did you see yourself in?

    If this episode blessed you, share it, comment below, and show Ricka some love.

    Remember: Life could be much more simple… if you just ask.

  • Understanding the Supernatural: How to Discern What God Is Showing You | ft. Brianca Hardy | EP130
    Description:
    Jess is joined by her best friend and prophetic voice Brianca E. Hardy to discuss the supernatural, the prophetic, the 5 (and 6) spiritual senses, and how believers can learn to hear God clearly. This episode breaks down warfare, discernment, spiritual language, angel numbers, Hebrew years, generational gifts, and how to avoid counterfeits while following the Holy Spirit. If you’ve ever sensed things, seen things, or “just known” things but didn’t have language for it — this conversation will give you clarity and confidence. Life could be much more simple… if you just ask.

  • Funnels, Freedom, and Healing: How Alyssa Pitts Turned Pain Into Profit | EP129
    Description:
    Jess sits down with Funnel Queen Alyssa “Curlyssa” Pitts to talk funnels, offers, and the real-life story behind the systems. They unpack what a funnel actually is, why every creator already has one, and how to turn your podcast and content into simple, profitable offers—especially going into the holiday season. Alyssa also shares her powerful testimony of surviving domestic violence while building her business, how she rebuilt her life, and why she’s passionate about helping Black and brown entrepreneurs create structure, safety, and freedom through funnels. If you’ve ever felt behind, overwhelmed, or stuck in chaos—in your business or your relationships—this conversation is for you.

  • You’re Not Behind: Trusting God’s Timing, Seasons & Process | with Desiree Danielle | EP128
    Description:
    In this episode, Jess and Desiree remind you: you are not behind. They open up about burnout, rest, and learning to slow down enough to hear God clearly. From Genesis and Habakkuk 2:2–3, they break down how to write the vision, make it legible, and recognize the season you’re in. This is your reminder to stop rushing the process and stop calling yourself behind — you’re right on time. In this conversation:
    • What “write it legibly” really means ✍🏾
    • The difference between process and progress
    • How rest gives clarity
    • “Partial vision = partial blessing”
    • Why you must identify your season before you move
    If you’ve ever wrestled with impatience, overwhelm, or uncertainty about your journey — this episode will bring you peace and perspective. Scripture Reference: Habakkuk 2:2–3 (The Passion Translation)

  • Hurt to Covered : Safe Love, Faith & Content Creation | FT Brittani Monique | EP127
    Description:
    What does safe love feel like when you’re healing in public? Educator & creator Brittani Monique shares how prayer with her partner became the most intimate step of her healing, why boundaries saved her peace, and how she uses influence to serve students—poppy machines, clothes, books, all of it. We dive into church that still feels like church, online safety, content batching, and choosing faith over optics.
