Let's Talk UNCUT: Recent Episodes
Destiny Holder
Let’s Talk is centered around mental health, for you to get insight into what it takes to be a dreamer. Created by me, Destiny Holder, and as a 20-30minute show on my Youtube channel (The Destiny Holder). After seeing how easily it is for my guests and I to speak (for on average 1.5 hours straight), I decided I wanted to provide an even deeper experience for my audience.With more questions, heavier topics, and relatable experiences, than shown on Youtube, you gain all access to what my guests have to share. Welcome to a new world of unfiltered vulnerability. Welcome to Let’s Talk: UNCUT. Xoxo, Destiny.
My old therapist once asked me what I do for leisurely fun and I couldn’t give her an answer. Why? I was trying to monetize everything I was passionate about! Dance, Cooking, Makeup, Art, Writing, literally anything I was good at. It’s easy nowadays to try to monetize off of every creative endeavor or business venture you think of, but I’m exhausted! It’s time to take a step back and look at what I can keep for myself as a leisurely activity and not make it money-driven. A work and play life balance is something I am prioritizing. My episodes are literally self-driven therapy sessions, so join me as I speak what’s on my mind. I answered my own questions after recording this episode so I hope it brings you some purposeful clarity as well!
Oh you know, just girly things at the gym! I’m talking about my workout routine, coregasms, peeing, capillary itching, asthma, pelvic floor dysfunction. Everyone talks about hot girl summer and not about what we go through to get there HA! I know I’m not the only one who experiences these things. Gymshark should definitely sponsor me, I have a great testimonial.
This episode is going to make you feel so much better about all the little tiny stupid things that you cry about. So laugh at me, with me! I let you in on what my most recent PMDD week has been like and I share with you what has positively effected my symptoms. We talk about loneliness and the strength of our triggers so prepare to have your mind blown and then to laugh so hard your cheeks hurt. No need to ever feel embarrassed again, I've got you in that department.
This was a big reflection in how my perspective of life and the future has finally lightened up. I want to LIVE! No matter what, if it’s for you it’ll come, so I’m finally trying to enjoy the journey even if the journey is currently in the mud. Let’s talk about dating apps, vasectomies, festivals, romanticizing our lives, and the importance of work & play! Then put on your bad bitch boots and step away from survival mode and into the party! You’re invited to Hot Girl Summer, where we let go of all our worries and leave room for living again!
Meet Megan Lipprandt! A badass mysterious scorpio hufflepuff with lots to say. In this episode, we talk about negative body image, Crohn’s disease, anxiety, relationships, dancing, and more. We talk about the effects of growing up while being criticized in the mirror, for 10+ years. Now that we’ve graduated the big question is: Why do we all struggle feeling like failures during our first decade of being “adults”? News flash: you aren’t a failure and you’ll still be figuring it out in your 50’s. So let’s buckle up together and give ourselves grace during this lifetime.
Are you going through a divorce at 24 yrs old? Are you also going through your first break up ever? Are you crawling out of bed everyday? Crying yourself to sleep every night? Or maybe you’re stressed out about rent? Or your dog’s next vaccine? Maybe you’re just 20 and doing that thing where you navigate your life but also try to live. These years are STRESSFUL!
I’ve taken note of the little things that have made a big impact on keeping me running.
Because I know this too shall pass even though it’s feeling like the longest heartbreak season ever.
Welcome Morgan back to the show! Since the very first episode of The Emotional Hour, both of our lives have drastically changed. She joins us to speak about how money doesn’t buy happiness, the importance of manifestation, and surviving an abusive relationship. Do you believe you have to fall in love three times before finding “the one”? Did my ex have a Black Fetish? Is Morgan dyslexic? Let’s talk about it. Excuse the screaming, adjust your volume accordingly. ;)
The END! (not quite, prayers up for the hearing) I've really enjoyed creating this platform to share my story. I've gained more motivation in waking up everyday from seeing how much my vulnerability was helping others feel seen, understood and was giving them permission to feel. I hope that just because the drama stops, you don't stop listening! Let's evolve together, one step at a time in this scary world. You'll never be alone; now you're stuck with me every Monday ;).
In this episode I talk about the phone call that completely changed the dynamic of our separated relationship. When going through big life changes like this, true colors of everyone who surrounds you are shown in vibrant shades. I was told by a good friend that your entire tower has to crumble for you to really start over. Wish me luck in court, because everything that went down with the car has been completely unfair and damaging to me and me only thus far. This is 4/6 episode on my first break up.
I know. Yes, I am okay. Everyone listening probably cares more than he did...so grab some popcorn or go for a long drive because the series of events I share in this episode get worse and worse. This is 3/6 episodes on my first break up.
Surprise! I’m getting divorced at 24 years old, what is life. This is Part 2/6 episodes on my first break up.
Social media isn’t as it seems. I didn’t realize I was a depiction for a perfect relationship. In this episode I take you through said “perfect” relationship and all the little narcissistic tendencies I couldn’t see were a problem within my “perfect” man. This is Part 1/6 episodes about my first break up.
Get in front of a mirror for this one. If you're in your car, pull down that mirror and lock into your beautiful eyes for deeper connection to yourself. I spent a long lonely time in a psychiatric hospital...and created this meditation for myself that I recited out loud every day. Multiple times, I'd sit down in silence with nothing but my breathe and these words. I invite you to do the same, and play this episode whenever you need. Cheers to 2023.
I will be playing this episode daily, mornings, mid panic attacks, nights, you name it. Join me in taking care of our mindsets and energy before we complete our daily tasks. Let's prioritize ourselves this year, it doesn't have to be complicated. It's as easy as playing this episode and repeating the words to yourself or just actively listening. Take some breathes with me whenever you need it. I'll be doing the same so remember that you're never alone in this life. It's time to prioritize the body our souls inhabit. Quiet the noise and give back to you.
You may already know Jonathan Rabon, as he has been dancing for years behind the biggest names in the industry like Justin Bieber, Jennifer Lopez, Chris Brown...(honestly you name 'em) He takes us through memory lane of how he got started in Los Angeles to building the most impressive resume. When your star quality is blinding, follow the light to purpose baby! If you take anything from this episode remember to follow your dreams, seriously! Now “the hills do have eyes” so make sure your circle includes people with pure intentions, similar goals and morals, or you’ll find it easier to lose yourself along the way. Why did Jon pass up on what would have been his 4th world tour? Listen to find out why you need to be following your gut and stepping into your purpose. Remember that there's room for everyone and you may be an inspiration to so many you don't know about, so don't give up. The higher you climb, the more torches you're passing down.
Niccolo Michelangelo Marcantonio, a name of luxury! Did you used to make screenplays out of fictional books when you were little? Welcome to the team baby! Nicco is an anxiety-driven problem solver. In a country that allows history to repeat itself, he elevates and betters himself by honing in on self-discipline with grace. Nicco actually grew up as the minority in his environment, so you could say he grew up very well-seasoned. With ADHD, suicidal ideation, body dysmorphia, and constantly being put into a box based on outside expectations, Nicco shares how he stays focused on his purpose. A legend, to say the least. Grab your popcorn, because we're talking the real real on this episode. White "culture", BLM, LGBTQ+, Masculinity, Bullying, Dancing and so much more. Listen and share because I know you thought of someone you could send this episode too. Be vulnerable, it's hot! xoxo.
*PS - I had timers going off in this episode. It's not your phone.

Hannah Johnson is a firecracker! As a professional dancer devoted to her career, she doesn’t let anything get in her way. (Or she finds a way to hurdle over it) We talk about body dysmorphia and acceptance. Being Burlesque dancers also comes with pre-conceived judgements on our womanhood. Join us as we talk about the misunderstandings in the dance world, how to change the narrative by fixing your own perspective on yourself. We’ve got to stop feeling like we’re lazy when we don’t check everything off our to do lists…instead of congratulating ourselves on what we did complete, and resting because we should not because we “deserve” it.

Some college friends are forever friends baby. Keep ‘em close!

Working in what would be considered a “man’s world” - the business side of sports, she knows there’s no option to quit. (Quitting and Resting are two very different things, might I add) and when it's time for those hard-earned breaks, let Kenza tell you what plan to put in place to live your best traveling life!
Kenza is a former D1 Athlete! So why didn't she go pro? Why are women equally as intellectual as men, but continue to be underestimated?

She let’s us know why being original, and staying true to yourself is so important in this industry, and the world of social media. Charlene comes from incredibly humbling beginnings and once she started to tap into her greatness, was told she was cocky. Why is it that we all want confidence, but as soon as someone finds theirs, they need to dial down? I disagree. Get into yourself! Do it for yourself! As humans, we need people, but don’t ever let being alone stop you. You can do it and if you don’t know how, Charlene will teach you! If there’s a will, there’s a way baby!
