What's Next Podcast

In this episode, I introduce my new co-host, TJ. We talk about what it means to truly trust others, the moments that shook that trust, and how disappointment from people we care about can shape the way we grow.

Together, we break down the difference between understanding someone and enabling their behavior, how to stop making excuses for actions that hurt us, and why seeing people for who they really are is the key to protecting your peace.

If you’ve ever struggled with giving too much grace, trusting too quickly, or ignoring red flags because of love or loyalty — this episode is for you.

Tune in for honesty, reflection, and the start of a brand-new chapter with TJ joining the journey.
