THE PULL UP PODCAST! episodes

  • PRETTY OUTSIDE, NASTY INSIDE.

    Hey Friend! I want to connect with you. Shoot me a text!

    We live in a world that constantly teaches us to work on what people can see—our appearance, our careers, our relationships, our homes, our image, and even our social media presence. We know how to look good, show up, keep it together, and be everything everyone else needs us to be.


    But what happens when the outside looks amazing while the inside is struggling?


    Pretty Outside, Nasty Inside is a conversation about the work nobody sees—the inner work. The healing. The self-reflection. The uncomfortable conversations we have to have with ourselves. The patterns we have to unlearn, the wounds we have to acknowledge, and the parts of ourselves we can no longer neglect.


    Because sometimes we spend so much time becoming better for everyone else that we forget to become healthier for ourselves.


    You can have the glow-up and still need healing.

    You can be successful and still be struggling.

    You can love everybody else and still not know how to love yourself well.

    You can look completely put together and still be falling apart privately.


    This episode is an invitation to stop asking, “How do I look?” and start asking, “How am I?”


    Because the outside deserves attention—but so does the person living inside of it.

  • LIFE WILL ALWAYS GO ON Ft Damielle Douglas

    Hey Friend! I want to connect with you. Shoot me a text!

    WHEN LIFE DOESN’T STOP 🩷✨


    Life doesn’t pause just because you’re hurting. Bills still come, responsibilities still need handling, and the world keeps moving—even when you feel like you’re barely holding it together.


    In this episode of The Pull Up Podcast, Awny pulls up with their good friend Damielle for a real conversation about navigating life when unexpected things happen. How do we keep going without ignoring what we’re feeling? How do we give ourselves permission to heal while still showing up?


    Because sometimes… life has to go on. But that doesn’t mean you have to go through it alone.


    Pull up. Let’s talk about it. 🎙️🩷

    Hey Friend! I want to connect with you. Shoot me a text!

    🚩 Red Flag vs. Real Sh*t 💩


    Not everything that makes you uncomfortable is a red flag… and sometimes the “real sh*t” is exactly what we need to hear! 👀

From relationships and friendships to personal growth and everything in between, we’re asking the questions that might have you saying, “Damn… they were right.” 😂


    Pull up, get comfortable, and let’s talk about the sh*t nobody wants to admit! 🚩💩

  • AUTHENTICITY IS THE REQUIREMENT.

    Hey Friend! I want to connect with you. Shoot me a text!

    What does it really take to lead in the queer community? Is visibility enough, or does authentic leadership require something deeper?


    This week on The Pull Up Podcast, Awny sits down with Nik Pettye, leader of The Qindred Qoralition, for a powerful conversation on why authenticity isn’t just a personal choice—it’s the foundation of impactful leadership. Together, they unpack the courage to show up fully, the responsibility of leading with integrity, and how embracing your truth creates space for others to do the same.


    Whether you’re a community leader, advocate, or simply navigating your own journey, this episode is a reminder that the strongest movements are built by people who refuse to hide who they are.


    Because leadership doesn’t begin with a title—it begins with authenticity.

  • REFRAMING THE PROCESS

    Hey Friend! I want to connect with you. Shoot me a text!

    What if the very thing you’re trying to rush through is the thing that’s preparing you for what’s next?


    In this episode of The Pull Up Podcast, “Reframing the Process,” we challenge the way we view life’s in-between seasons. Too often we resent the process while romanticizing the promise, focusing on the destination and overlooking the lessons along the journey. But the truth is, the process isn’t punishment, it’s preparation. It’s where character is built, wisdom is gained, and purpose is refined.


    Join us as we explore how shifting your perspective can help you embrace the journey, trust the growth, and recognize that the process is often what qualifies you for the promise. Sometimes the breakthrough isn’t at the end of the road, it’s in how you learn to walk it. 🎙️✨

  • THE INTRODUCTION!

    Hey Friend! I want to connect with you. Shoot me a text!

    Don’t panic it’s just a name change!


    Welcome to the introduction  of the Let Me Be Queer Podcast, the fresh evolution of what you’ve always known as All in With Awny. Don’t worry—we’re still the same safe space for all people, still rooted in authenticity, still committed to conversations that shift mindsets, spark freedom, and remind you that you’re not alone on this journey.


    The identity, heart, mission, vision, and purpose of this podcast haven’t changed—only the name that carries it. Let Me Be Queer is more than a title; it’s a movement, an expansion, and a louder invitation to live boldly, love loudly, and show up as your truest self.


    In this episode, we’re stepping into this new chapter together. I’ll share why the change matters, what it represents, and how this transition opens doors for deeper conversations, broader perspectives, and a community that continues to grow in truth and freedom.


    This is a great, new, and beautifully fresh moment—and I want you all to be a part of it. Let’s grow. Let’s learn. Let’s evolve. Let’s be Clear & Queer, and if you’re not Queer at least be CLEAR … together. 🌈✨

  • BLURRY PATHS (THINK UP)

    Hey Friend! I want to connect with you. Shoot me a text!


    In Episode 2 of All In with Awny, titled “Blurry Paths,” we navigate the often unsettling experience of being in dark places in life. These moments, while challenging, offer unique opportunities to shift our perspectives and grow. Instead of succumbing to despair, I’m here to encourage my listeners to embrace full submission to God and trust in their divine plans.
    This episode explores the idea that relinquishing control can be liberating, allowing us to find clarity and purpose even in the most obscure phases. By letting go of the constant struggle to steer our own paths, we open ourselves to guidance and comfort from a higher power. Join me as I redefine what it means to be in a dark place and discover the strength and light that comes from trusting in something greater than ourselves.
