In this episode, I’m joined by Ta’Donna Nagle, a Wealth Alignment Coach and Financial Educator for a faith-rooted conversation about money, worthiness, and alignment. We talk about how many high-achieving women end up building lives that look successful on the outside but feel exhausting on the inside, and how spending, saving, or overworking can quietly become ways we cope with being out of alignment.

Ta’Donna shares her own journey out of corporate America, what it really means to build wealth in alignment with the life you want, and why learning to be a gracious receiver is just as important as being a giver. If you’re questioning your relationship with money, this conversation will meet you right where you are and gently invite you into something more aligned.

Loving yourself after loss isn’t selfish, it’s the work that makes everything else possible.

In this episode, I’m joined by my amazing daughters, Diara and Danielle, for a conversation that is very close to my heart. We flip the tables as they step into the role of interviewers and invite me to reflect on what it has looked like to lose myself in a long marriage and slowly find my way back home to me.

I share honestly about how being a high achiever can sometimes hide what’s unraveling beneath the surface, how false optimism kept me holding on longer than I should have, and what this season of loving myself, telling the truth, and choosing reality has required. We also talk about motherhood, grief, becoming an empty nester, and learning who I am beyond the roles I’ve held for decades.

If you’re standing at the edge of a new season after divorce or an unexpected life shift, this episode is a reminder that it’s never too late to rediscover yourself, reclaim your worth, and begin writing your next chapter with clarity and grace.
