In this special Father–Daughter edition of The Art of Rebounding, host Harold “Lefty” Williams welcomes his daughter Kiara “Kiki” Williams — a gifted singer, actress, and writer — for a heartfelt conversation about finding your voice, overcoming adversity, and stepping boldly into your purpose.

Kiara opens up about the inspiration behind her song “Don’t I Have a Say?”, a powerful anthem born from experiences with bullying and the struggle to be heard. Together, Lefty and Kiara discuss her journey from uncertainty to confidence — including her first major performance for gospel legend CeCe Winans, working in the studio with Marvin Winans Jr., and the lessons learned through her creative process.

The two share stories of family, faith, and resilience — from Kiara’s early childhood experiences to her music video debut and the powerful message of perseverance that now defines her voice. This conversation is an inspiring reminder that you’re never too young (or too old) to rebound from life’s challenges and walk in your truth.
