This week, I’m joined by Briana, someone I’ve known since high school but only truly connected with in recent years. What started as a surface-level familiarity has grown into a real friendship rooted in honesty, resilience, and growth.

In this episode, we talk about what it looks like to grow up before you're ready. Briana opens up about navigating school, relationships, and the heartbreak of experiencing a miscarriage at a young age and how those moments shaped the woman she is today. We get into jobs, purpose, pivots, and the kind of life lessons you only learn when you’re thrown into adulthood faster than planned.

In this week’s Pit Stop Moment, I share a personal reminder about stepping out of your comfort zone because sometimes the only way forward is through the unknown.

Tune in for an honest, heartfelt, and beautifully real conversation.

It’s been years since I’ve caught up with my high school friend Simmone, and let’s just say—life has been life-ing! We sat down for a real, unfiltered conversation about growing up, unexpected detours, and finding yourself again after loss and change. From college dreams to motherhood, marriage, and rediscovering her purpose, Simmone keeps it honest, hilarious, and full of heart.

This episode is all about the power of reconnecting, reflecting, and realizing that every pivot can still lead to purpose.

Tune in now—this catch-up was long overdue.

In this episode, I sit down with my friend Cynthia to talk about how an unexpected move back home led to new beginnings, deeper connections, and powerful lessons. From navigating family dynamics and back-to-back grief to finding genuine friendship in the midst of it all, we unpack what it really means to grow, heal, and start fresh — even when life doesn’t go as planned.

From high school hallways to grown-folk problems, we’ve seen it all together! In this episode, I catch up with two of my day-one friends as we laugh a lot, get real about layoffs and life changes, and reflect on how our friendship has stood the test of time. There are jokes, a few tears, and plenty of reminders that no matter how much life shifts, some bonds just don’t break.

In this premiere episode of Here For The Journey: Unfiltered, I sit down with the woman who started it all — my mom. We talk about her journey of finding out she was pregnant with me at 17, the pivots life forced her to make, and how our relationship has grown through love, laughter, and truth. From teenage motherhood to me coming out as gay, this episode is full of raw conversations, lessons, and laughs. It’s the perfect reminder that every journey begins somewhere — and ours began together.
