As part of my Women's History Series on Winning At Being You, I had an fantastic conversation with Dr. Kristilynn Turney: educator, former principal, TedX speaker, and leadership strategist.
We talked about her journey in education, her experiences as a school leader, and what it takes to build a positive culture on campus.
One thing that stood out to me was her perspective on leadership being rooted in relationships and appreciation for the people you work with.
In a field where it’s easy to focus only on challenges, it was interesting to hear her speak to the importance of valuing your team and creating an environment where people can do their best work.
If you’re leading in education, there are some good takeaways in this one!

In this episode of Message 2 Movement: Winning at Being You, I’m joined by Dr. David Martin for a deeply real conversation about breaking cycles, reclaiming identity, and walking in purpose.

Dr. Martin shares how a 15-year battle with drug and alcohol addiction could have defined his life—but instead became the foundation for his transformation. Through faith, self-awareness, and intentional growth, he turned pain into purpose and now helps others do the same.

In this conversation, we explore:

What it actually takes to break negative cycles

Moving from survival mode to stability and growth

How purpose is built, not discovered overnight

The heart behind Dr. Martin’s PPT Formula and his work with students and communities

This is a conversation about redemption, responsibility, and real change.

A lot of men look like they are doing fine on the outside, but internally they are exhausted, disconnected, and carrying more than they admit.

In this conversation, I sit down with Heath Muhammad, LPC-S, to talk honestly about men’s mental health, identity, leadership, and communication.

We explore why so many men tie their worth to performance, how emotional avoidance shows up in everyday life, and what happens when the roles men build their lives around start to crack.

This is not a conversation about fixing yourself.It is about understanding yourself, building self-leadership, and choosing how you show up at work, at home, and in your relationships.Topics include:

Performance-based identity and self-worth

Emotional awareness without losing control

Sitting with discomfort without shutting down

Self-leadership as a learned skill

Communication and emotional leadership in the home

If you are a man, love a man, or lead men, this conversation will resonate.

In this Winning At Being You conversation, I sit down with Sheryl Van Cole, also known as The Queen of Hearts, for a phenomenal and memorable conversation!

The energy is uplifting.

The insight is real.

The reminders land right where they need to.

We talk about resilience, commitment, discipline, and legacy in a way that leaves you encouraged, not weighed down. This conversation speaks to the part of you that’s still hopeful, still growing, and still believing that your life has more ahead.

If you’ve ever needed reassurance that you’re on the right path…

If you’ve ever wondered whether your persistence really matters…

This conversation will remind you why it does!

In this episode of Winning at Being You, I sit down with Brian Olds, founder of Black Speakers Network and a systems-driven builder at the intersection of storytelling, technology, and community.We talk about the real work behind building something that lasts. Not quick wins. Not visibility without structure. But sustainable impact rooted in systems, ownership, and people.Brian breaks down why many creators and leaders stall out, how community differs from audience, and what it takes to move from having a message to building something durable.This is a grounded conversation for speakers, entrepreneurs, and builders who care about long-term influence more than short-term attention.

What does real leadership look like when it’s forged through transformation?In this powerful conversation, I sit down with Dr. Will Moreland, leadership expert, bestselling author, former military officer, and creator of the Beyond 9 to 5 Framework.Before boardrooms and frameworks, his leadership journey began in the streets of Compton.
