This week’s mantra: "I deserve to have FUN

This week on Odessey the Podcast, I’m joined by the one and only Tori Starr—media queen, creative powerhouse, and one of my favorite people. We dive into her journey in the industry, how she protects her peace, and why she’s unapologetic about having fun along the way.

✨ Weekly Mantra: “I deserve to have fun.”
This one’s your invitation to let go of the pressure and lean into joy. Period.

Affirmation of the Week: “I am strong enough to control my emotions.”

In this episode, I’m opening up about how emotional discipline has been one of the biggest shifts in my healing journey. I share how learning to stop reacting, breathe, and respond with intention has helped me protect my peace and keep showing up — as a mom, a woman, and a creator.

If your emotions have ever stopped your progress, blocked your creativity, or left you feeling drained — this one’s for you.

You made it. You’re here.

— Des

This one’s personal, y’all. I’m chopping it up with my best friend—Stephanie Briana—who also happens to be the godmother of my son and one of the most grounded, graceful creatives I know. From dancing before she could walk to walking in her purpose as a model, Steph shares the real about staying consistent even when the timing ain’t timing.

We get into the slow grind, the early rejections, and how letting go of the pressure opened up a whole new path. If you’ve ever questioned your lane, felt behind, or needed a sign to just keep showing up—this is it.

This episode is a vibe, a testimony, and a reminder that what you’re building is already working for you behind the scenes. ✨

🔑 Tap in for:

• ​Not forcing what’s not flowing
• ​Modeling, and making your own lane
• ​Why faith + timing = alignment
• ​How friendships like ours fuel the journey

💭 Say it loud: “My hard work, works for me.”
