In this reflective and empowering episode, Shronda Armstrong invites listeners to pause, reset, and intentionally step into 2026 by releasing what no longer serves them. Rather than chasing traditional New Year’s resolutions, Shronda challenges us to embrace continuous self-improvement, self-awareness, and spiritual alignment—any day of the year.

She dives into the realities of imposter syndrome, especially for women of color, the importance of walking away from toxic circles, and the necessity of developing financial maturity by knowing your worth and charging accordingly. This episode is filled with affirmations, truth-telling, and encouragement to speak life into your goals, protect your energy, and move forward boldly.

As 2026 approaches, this is your reminder that growth begins the moment you decide to let geaux.

What does it really take to build a career in Hollywood and stay grounded in who you are?

In this episode of The Q Chat, host Shronda Armstrong sits down with actor, writer, director, and producer Tosin Morohunfola, known for his roles in Run the World and The Chi, and currently starring in Tyler Perry’s holiday film Finding Joy on Amazon Prime.

Tosin opens up about working with Tyler Perry, the making of Finding Joy, navigating grief and loss, and the importance of growth, purpose, and self-love in a demanding industry.

This is more than an interview. It’s a real conversation about resilience, mental health, faith, creativity, and becoming the best version of yourself, on and off the screen.

If you enjoy honest dialogue, creative journeys, and conversations that go deeper than surface-level success, this episode is for you.

In this deeply personal solo episode of The Q-Chat, Shronda Armstrong returns with a powerful message about the strength, clarity, and healing found in letting go. From toxic family dynamics to broken friendships and the pressure to forgive too soon, she explores why setting boundaries—and even cutting ties—isn't cruel, it's self-love.

Shronda reflects on the emotional labor of being the family scapegoat, the pain of people-pleasing, and the silent weight of unspoken trauma. She challenges the idea that forgiveness must be immediate, confronts cut-off culture, and reminds listeners that preserving your peace is not up for debate.

This episode is for anyone who's ever walked away and wrestled with guilt—or is still finding the courage to do so.

“There is good in goodbye. There's peace on the other side. And you are worthy of that peace.”

We're covering:

• The truth about cutting people off

• People-pleasing as a trauma response

• Family scapegoating and generational shame

• The real cost of ignoring red flags

• Forgiving on your timeline

• Reclaiming your peace, power, and purpose
