Are you feeling the weight of everyone else’s needs as we head into the holidays… while your own needs are sitting on the back burner?

In this episode of Leading Through the Cracks, I’m joined by a very special guest—my younger sister, Tiffany Young, CEO of The Young Impact Group. We’re talking about wholeness, grief, pivots, women’s health, and why saying “no” can be one of the bravest things you do.

We don’t hold back in this conversation. From losing our dad and navigating the “ha...

In today’s episode of Leading Through the Cracks, we’re diving into a powerful, heart-opening conversation with Janica (“J”) Davis all about cultivating bravery — especially as women who lead, mother, build, create, and carry so much.

❤️ This conversation is for the woman who knows she’s called to more…but has been held back by old stories, childhood scripts, or the fear of taking that first bold step.

Together, we unpack:

🔴 What bravery really looks like in everyday life🔴 How childhood scripts and cultural expectations shape our confidence🔴 The danger of “clearance ta...

If you’ve been with me for a while, then you know that every Monday, I interview an extraordinary woman with a powerful story of life leadership and transformation. We have a great time sharing, encouraging, teaching, and empowering women to PAUSE, SHIFT, and take their places in life and leadership with wisdom and grace.

This week, the tables were turned and I invited my dear friend Dr. Towera Loper to interview me! The concept came because I’d just finished my first challenge Sip from the Well: 10 Days of Pause, and Dr. Towera being the...

In this conversation, I was joined by Macea (The Pigtail Prophet), whose “30 Days of Peace” personal experiment has become The Peace Experience.

What We Mean by “Peace” (and what we don’t)

Peace isn’t pretending nothing is wrong. Peace is not perfection or passivity. Peace is a practice, a muscle, a decision. Macea share with us that peace is wisdom, a skill that integrates our emotional brain and our logical brain so we can respond instead of react.

Line we kept coming back to: “Peace is possi...

In this episode of Leading Through the Cracks, I welcomed back Kelly from Life Between the Systems, a systems strategist and self-proclaimed “9-to-5 Fixer,” who helps women create ease in their lives and work by simplifying what they already do.

Our conversation is a powerful reminder that ease is possible in the midst of full thriving lives.

I Am Me with Kelly of Life Between the Systems

These Monday conversations have become a true highlight of my week. I get to sit down with women who carry powerful stories; stories of resilience, leadership, and the courage to live aligned with who they truly are.

This week, I had the honor of speaking with Kelly of Life Between the Systems about pivoting, motherhood, burnout, and the power of remembering who you are.

Kelly’s story is a reminder that leadership is not just about the roles we ho...

“Pausing is not weakness. It is the bravest act of remembering who you are, and giving yourself permission to who you are, and returning to your place of peace and ease.”

We live in a world that glorifies busyness. Our calendars are full, our minds are racing, and our bodies often feel like they’re running on fumes. But what happens when we stop long enough to ask ourselves: How am I really doing?

Samantha Edu of Brown Heart TV and I dive deeply into this powerful conversation regarding being positioned to pause.

On Monday’s episode of Leading Through the Cracks, I had my dear friend Rachel Renee on to chat about the importance of self-advocacy. Self-advocacy is something that doesn’t come easy to many women. We tend to be nurturers, caretakers, and constantly on the go taking care of everyone and everything else but our own needs. If that sounds like you and you need a little encouragement to just stand up for YOU, take a listen and be encouraged.

Please comment or message with any thoughts and questions. Rachel and I would love to take the conv...
