In this episode, I’m speaking with Deidra Kindred, a registered nurse turned entrepreneur, about how her two divorces became the spark for transformation and self-discovery.

Deidra shares how leaning on faith, setting boundaries, and embracing her own chrysalis season allowed her to step fully into a life that reflects her values, her joy, and her authenticity.

If you’ve ever felt pressured to fit someone else’s vision, questioned your worth, or wondered if freedom and purpose are possible after loss, this episode will remind you that it is and that your light can shine brighter than ever.
