The world comes to a standstill when royalty enters the room. Latrice Royale—"large and in charge, chunky and funky"—brings her formidable presence to a conversation that transcends drag entertainment and dives deep into the soul of authenticity, self-love, and purposeful living.

This raw, emotional exchange peels back the sequins and reveals Timothy—the resilient human behind the iconic Latrice Royale persona. With breathtaking candor, Latrice traces her journey from being "different" and not fitting any mold to deliberately transforming perceived weaknesses into superpowers. "If the skinny is doing it, I'm gonna work ten times harder to do the same things," she shares, revealing the determination that propelled her to legendary status.

The conversation takes unexpected emotional turns as both Latrice and host Alethea Crimmins recognize their profound impact on each other's journeys toward self-acceptance. Latrice vulnerably discusses her mental health struggles, including a recent birthday where depression prevented her from receiving love from thousands of well-wishers. Her practical approach to recharging—surrounding herself with inspiring people who "make me love what I do again"—offers wisdom for anyone navigating similar challenges.

Beyond personal revelation, Latrice delivers mic-drop insights about criticism ("I am living rent-free, doing laps inside of your mind"), chosen family ("I have chosen you"), and the deeper purpose of drag ("It shows you that you can be any and everything that you want to be"). Her message to her younger self brings tears: recognizing that being different would ultimately become her greatest strength.

Whether you're a longtime fan or meeting Latrice for the first time, this conversation will leave you changed—inspired to stand in your truth, embrace your uniqueness, and as Alethea says, "have a good day on purpose." What parts of yourself have you been dimming? It's time to let that light shine.
