Loss has many faces. Sometimes it’s grieving the loved ones we’ve buried, sometimes it’s letting go of people who are still alive but can’t walk with us into our next season, and sometimes it’s the quiet heartbreak of releasing the life we once imagined for ourselves.

In this episode, I open up about my own journey with grief — the pain of losing family, the weight of saying goodbye to friendships, and the tender ache of missing the life I thought I’d have. But I also share the lessons that loss leaves behind: that some endings are really redirections, some goodbyes are actually protection, and that growth often asks us to release in order to receive.

If you’ve ever wrestled with grief, questioned “why,” or struggled to let go, this conversation is for you. Together, we’ll explore how loss can be a teacher, a catalyst, and even a doorway to love, healing, and the next level of our journey.

In this deeply personal episode, I open up about the moment I had to face myself without the crutches I once leaned on—like alcohol and avoidance—that I thought were protecting me. I now call those things, my enabler, Christina. Just like in Diary of a Mad Black Woman, where that unforgettable line sticks with us, “Christina’s gone” marks the beginning of a new chapter in my life.

This episode is about letting go of who I was, learning to sit with my reality, and picking up the broken pieces to create something more beautiful and whole. Together, we’ll talk about healing, mental health, and the raw truth of self-love when you can no longer hide behind the “cleaner” who made everything seem okay.

✨ Christina is gone. And now, I am here.
