Every new chapter asks the same question: What are you taking with you and what are you finally ready to leave behind?
After thirteen episodes of Reframe the Picture, one thing has become clear: changing your perspective is only the beginning. The real transformation happens when you start living from that new perspective every day.
In this special conversation, I'm sharing why Reframe the Picture has grown into something bigger than a podcast and how we’re building a community that helps you practice reframing everyday life.
Remember: Reframe the Picture isn't about changing your past. It's about changing what you carry into your future.
In this episode:
• Why a new season won't feel new if you bring old thinking with you.
• Why progress not perfection is what creates lasting change.
• A look at what's next for the Reframe the Picture.
Because when you change the frame - you change what becomes possible

The Reframe the PictureSeries Finale
After thirteen episodes of learning to Reframe the Picture this isn't another lesson - it's a conversation about what comes next.
We'll talk about why your past prepared you, but doesn't define you, why progress will always take you further than perfection, and how small, intentional choices can completely change the direction of your life.
The Reframe the Picture series was never meant to be just a podcast series, but a daily practice. A new way of seeing yourself, your story, and what's possible.
If you're ready to stop looking backward and start living forward, this conversation is for you.
In this episode we discuss:
• Why your past doesn't get the final word
• Why every new day is another opportunity to choose differently
• The power of celebrating small wins
• What's next for the Reframe the Picture community
Remember, don't measure your life by perfection - measure it by progress
You're not behind.
You're becoming.
Now trust what you see

Reframe the Picture Series - 12
How many decisions have you put on hold because you were waiting for the right time, the right person, or someone else's approval?
The truth is, the life you've been hoping for isn't waiting on more confidence—it's waiting on one brave decision.
In this episode, we're talking about what it really means to trust yourself, make the next brave decision, and stop waiting until you feel ready. We’’ll also cover how your growth can affect the people you love, how to invite them into the journey with you, and why the healthiest relationships are the ones that grow together.
Your life doesn't change because you finally feel fearless. It changes because you decide your future is worth more than your fear.
It's time to stop waiting—and start living.
You're not behind.
You're in process.
And you're learning to see clearly.

Reframe the Picture Series - Pt 11
Have you ever noticed you’re changing, but you can’t fully explain how or felt felt like you've outgrown something, but couldn't explain why?
Have you ever looked around and thought, "Why does this feel different now?”
The people haven't changed. The situations haven't changed. But you changed.
In this episode, we're talking about one of the most unexpected parts of growth: what happens when you can no longer connect to things the way you used to. We'll explore why some relationships feel different, why certain conversations drain you now, and why outgrowing old patterns can feel uncomfortable ven when it's exactly what you're supposed to do.
Because sometimes growth isn't about becoming someone new. It's about finally recognizing that you're not the same person anymore and learning to trust that - that is a good thing.

Reframe the Picture Series
Have you noticed you’re changing, but you can’t fully explain how?
You don’t react the same anymore to some things, you’re protecting your peace and you’re no longer forcing things that don’t feel right. That's growth.
In this episode, we’re talking about what happens when your life finally starts reflecting the healing, boundaries, and clarity you’ve been working on internally.
Because to be honest growth isn’t always loud. Growth can look like saying no without feeling guilty, resting without explaining, walking away from chaos and finally realizing you don’t have to keep shrinking to make other people feel comfort.
If you’ve been feeling like something in your life is shifting, this episode is your reminder that healing is not about becoming someone new. It’s about becoming more honest about who you really are.
If you’ve been feeling different this episode will help you understand why.
Outgrowing something is not failure. It’s evidence of growth.
Listen, reflect, and continue reframing the picture.
You’re not behind.

Reframe The Picture Series
What if the life you’re praying to escape is actually trying to teach you how to see?
You’ve been asking Why me?
Not because you’re broken, but because you’ve been only looking at the pain, obstacles, and survival.
In this Part 1 of my Reframe the Picture series, I will introduce what I found and believe to be a grounding truth that sets the tone for the entire journey ahead: that transformation doesn’t always require a new life, sometimes it requires a new way of seeing the one you’re already in with a different lens.
Most people who have reached a level of success will tell you they all didn’t start out with a million-dollar vision but with survival. This episode explores how reframing isn’t about erasing pain, rushing healing, or pretending it didn’t hurt. It’s about reframing the meaning so clarity, compassion, and direction can return.
This episode is an invitation to pause the pressure to fix everything and instead, gently ask what this season may be forming in you.
In this episode, we’re talking about:
- Why rushing to fix things in your life can keep you stuck.
- What reframing really is — and what it isn’t.
- How pain can distort your perspective.
- Why renewing your mind doesn’t mean denying reality.
- Learning to slow down to see your current season with grace.
In this episode I will lay the foundation for the Reframe the Picture method an 8-10 part series designed to help you see yourself, your story and your future clearly again.

Series: Reframe The Picture - Pt 9
Have you ever felt like something in your life is off, even when everything looks fine on the outside? It’s like you’re moving, functioning and even showing up where you need to be - but internally something still doesn’t feel right.
It doesn’t mean that something is wrong with you, but possibly something is just misaligned.
In this episode, we take the next step in the Reframe the Picture series. Although finding your voice is powerful - living from it is what changes everything.
In the past episodes, we have been touching on how you learned to keep the peace and become who you needed to be to feel safe, accepted or understood. And as you slowly adjusted, overtime it created distance between who you’re supposed to be and how you were living.
In this episode we discuss:
- What misalignment really feels like beneath the surface
- Why we stay in patterns that no longer serve us
- Having clarity without action creates frustration
- How to begin making decisions that reflect your truth
Alignment is not about becoming someone new. It’s about being honest about your truth one small decision at a time. It’s doing it over and over again until your life matches your truth.
When you begin to live in alignment things shift. Your choices change, relationship shifts and your standards rise.
You don’t need a new life. You need alignment with the life you already have.
Listen, reflect and continue Reframing the picture of your life.
You’re not behind.
You’re in process.
And you’re learning to see clearly.

Series: Reframe The Picture - Pt 8
In the last episode, we talked about setting boundaries what you will and will not allow.
But what many people don’t realize is that setting boundaries is not the final destination, it’s the introduction to something just as important: using your voice.
In this episode, we discuss what it means to find your voice after silence, survival, and self-doubt. Because many of us didn’t lose our voice…we built our lives around not needing it.
We learned how to keep the peace, how to stay quiet to protect relationships and how to keep our opinions to ourselves out of insecurity.
But being silent doesn’t always protect you, sometimes it slowly disconnects you from yourself.
In this episode we talk about,
- Recognizing where you’re choosing silence over honesty
- What happens when you don’t speak up for yourself.
- Simple ways to being using your voice.
It’s important to understand that silence can be protection for many people. Discovering a safe space to speak your truth is important that should be shared with the right people.
Using our voices is not about becoming louder - but it is about showing up authentically and not allowing others to speak for you.
Your voice matters and it deserves to be heard.
Listen, reflect and continue Reframing The Picture of your life.
You’re not behind.
You’re in process.
And you’re learning to see clearly.

Series: Reframe The Picture - Pt 7
What if the reason you feel drained isn’t because you’re doing too much, but because you’re allowing too much?
In this episode, we’re talking about boundaries not from a place of distance or disconnection, but from clarity, self-respect, and emotional safety.
After learning how to feel safe again the next step should be deciding what you will and will not continue to carry or allow. Because healing doesn’t just help change how you feel, it changes what you’re willing to accept.
Many of us were never taught to set boundaries. Instead, we learned how to keep the peace, overextend ourselves, and stay silent to protect relationships - at the cost of ourselves.
In this episode we talk about,
- 4 Types of boundaries: emotional, time, physical and mental.
- How to recognize when and where you need boundaries.
- The difference between relationships, family and work boundaries.
- Setting boundaries without over explaining yourself.
Take a moment and ask yourself:
Where in your life do you feel the most drained and where are you saying yes… when something in you is saying no?
Your frustration may be pointing to a boundary you haven’t set yet.
You’re not behind.
You’re in process.

Series: Reframe The Picture - Pt 6
In this episode of The Path Podcast, we’re talking about what survival leaves behind - this is something many of you may be experiencing but don’t always recognize it after overcoming obstacles.
You survived a serious diagnosis, financial setbacks, or the end of a relationship - but part of you is still living like you’re in it. Life has calmed down, but your body has not caught up. You finally have peace, but you still feel unsettled.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re always “on,” like you’re waiting for something to go wrong, or like calm just doesn’t feel normal yet? If you answered yes, this is the conversation for you.
Because sometimes survival ends before your body realizes it is safe.
In episode 5 of the Reframe the Picture Series, we talked about the identity you built to survive and how that version of you was necessary to protect you.
In this episode, we’re shifting the focus:
- What happens when the storm is over, but you’re still bracing for it?
- Why calm can feel unfamiliar after hard seasons.
- Why your body may still feel on guard even when nothing is wrong
- How to trust yourself again.
Somethings require additional support and you don’t have to go through it alone. Seeking help doesn’t make you weak. It means you’re ready to heal.
Sometimes the most courageous thing you can do is believe that calmer days are ahead.
Some storms change us, but they were never meant to define the rest of our lives.
You’re not behind.
You’re in process.
And you’re learning to see clearly.

Series: Reframe The Picture - Pt 5
You are not stuck.
You’re loyal to an identity that once kept us safe.
In Episode 5 of the ReFrame The Picture Series, we unpack the version of you that formed at a time you needed it to survive. We also discuss what happens when that version keeps leading your life and decisions long after the storm is over.
In this episode, we explore:
• How identity forms in response to pain
• Why survival requires us to adapt — and how adaptation can quietly become our identity
• A guided Reframe-the-Picture exercise
• A safe conversation about receiving support to help move you forward if needed.
You didn’t become this version of yourself by accident. You became her out of necessity. Show yourself grace, and thank the woman who stepped up when survival required it.
The protection you needed then is not what you require now.
It may be time to gently tell that part of you it’s safe to emerge - into the woman you were always meant to be, and fully love.
You don’t erase the picture.
You change the frame.

Series: Reframe The Picture - Pt 4
Have you ever made a permanent decision based on a temporary emotion?
Maybe you walked away from something too soon or stayed longer than you should have? Did you believe something said to you — not because it was true, but because it felt true in the moment.
In this episode of The Path Podcast, we continue the Reframe the Picture series by confronting something deeply personal to every human being - our emotions.
Although your feelings are powerful and real - they are not meant to lead your life.
Your feelings are information — not instructions. In this episode, we talk about the 3 common emotional traps that quietly shape our decisions and how we can make permanent decisions from temporary emotions.

Just because you feel it - doesn’t mean it’s final.

Reframe the Picture Series - Pt 3
What if the thoughts you have most often aren’t true?
In this episode of The Path Podcast, we look at the inner dialogue that quietly shapes how you see yourself, your past, and what you believe is possible. Many of us aren’t living from what actually happened, we’re living from what our minds learned while trying to survive.
Your brain’s first job is to protect itself after pain, loss, or disappointment. In this episode, we talk about why some thoughts feel so convincing when they aren’t actually true. If we’re not careful, these patterns begin to loop and replay over and over.
In this conversation, we will discuss:
- 3 common thought traps that feels real in the moment, but is actually not true.
- How to question the thoughts shaping your life.
- Why faith and therapy work together in the process of healing.
This episode continues our past conversations of renewing your mind - this will be vital to avoid fighting untrue thoughts, by learning how to notice them, question the lens they came from, and reframe the picture you’re seeing.
As you listen - pause and notice one thought you constantly hear on repeat.
Ask yourself - Is this thought protecting me or imprisoning me? Did it come from truth or from pain?
Awareness is not weakness. It’s wisdom.
✨ You’re not behind. You’re in process.

Reframe the Picture Series - Part 2
What if the hardest part of your life isn’t just what happened, but the story you’ve been telling yourself about it? Pain teaches, but it can also lie. In this episode, we discuss the 3 stories we been telling ourselves after obstacles.These are stories that quietly shape how you see yourself and the world. It’s time to stop letting old stories continue to rule your future and begin Reframing The Picture with clarity and purpose.
Many of us don’t live from what actually happened, we live from what we decided it meant. These stories feel true and they quietly shape how we see ourselves, our past, and our future.
In this episode, we discuss the 3 stories we tell ourselves:
- This is my fault
- Something is wrong with me
- Because of this, I’m disqualified
I invite you to pause, stop judging yourself while re-evaluating where you are to notice the lens you’ve been looking through.
You’ll hear how survival stories can create shame and doubt - and how awareness is the first step toward clarity and freedom to start seeing your stories differently.
This episode is for anyone ready to stop letting old stories that aren’t true control their lives.
If you’re ready to see yourself — and your story — with more clarity, take this moment for yourself and begin seeing your life through a new lens.
✨ You are not behind. You are in process.

If you’re entering the new year tired, but hopeful this is the episode for you.
In Part 2 of the Path Podcast Unfinished but Unfolding series, we go deeper into the conversation.
This isn’t about rushing into resolutions or pretending last year didn’t come with some obstacles. This episode is about being renewed.
If Part 1 helped you understand where you are, Part 2 helps you learn how to move forward—renewed, not pressured.
In this episode, we’re talking about:
- The real work of renewal.
- The “soft reset” we all need,
- The mindset you’re taking into 2026.
- You are not unfinished - you are unfolding.
Here's a quick reminder for you as we close out 2025: You’re not walking into the new year behind. You’re walking in renewed and ready to finish the work you were destined to complete - and if you don’t check all the boxes - remember you don’t need to finish everything to be right where God needs you.

“You didn’t finish everything — but everything you finished matters.”
This isn’t just another end of year reflection. This is a release.
In this episode, we’re letting go of the guilt, the unmet expectations, the heavy stories you carried longer than you should have, and the pressure to be perfect. This episode walks you through the emotional, spiritual, and mental reset you needed long before the year tried to shut its door.
Today, we will pause, reflect, breathe again and learn why God cares more about the direction we’re going more than our deadlines. Even if you didn’t finish everything — this episode reminds you that you’re not behind… you’re becoming.
We will laugh a little and discuss some honest heart work to help us explore what it looks like to end the year with clarity instead of shame, renewal instead of regret and courage instead of comparison.
You are not unfinished — you are unfolding.
Here’s what you’ll walk away with:
- Honest end of year reflections
- Renewal doesn’t mean perfection
- What Romans 12:2 really means for your mindset
- Letting go and making room for next
- A renewed mind for tomorrow and the NewYear!
Before the calendar resets, let your mind reset. Before the new year opens its door - make sure you close this one well.
Do the work so the next chapter will reveal the strength this chapter taught and grew in you.

In this solo episode, we’re talking about HOPE - it’s the light that cuts through the darkest nights, the quiet strength that whispers “keep going” when life feels unbearable and a reminder to Hold On—Pain Ends.
Hope isn’t just a feeling; it’s a mindset and a daily practice. No one is exempt from challenges, but we all have the power to rise above them.
Inside this episode, you’ll learn a simple lesson about holding on to hope:
Write down 3 things you’re grateful for — morning and night.
These small “breadcrumbs” help you see that everything is not bad, even in hard seasons.
You’ll also hear a powerful reminder from Lovely One by Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson:
“Guard your spirit. To dwell on the unfairness of life is to be devoured by it.”
Be encouraged today to hold on to hope — even in the challenging times. Your story isn’t over. Hope is still working.

Success looks different for everyone. It don’t come wrapped one way. What success looks like for one person might not be what it looks like for you.
See, we all might end up at the same destination, but the roads we take? They’re not the same. Some of us had to crawl. Some had to climb. Some had to fight our way through seasons we didn’t even see coming and for others they glide in unscathed.
My point is - so stop trying to copy somebody else’s picture — you don’t know the pain, the process, or the price they paid to get there.
In this week’s solo episode, we’re asking what does success look like to you?
I learned a long time ago - never to wish for what others have, because I don’t know what they had to survive to get it.
So today, I’m asking you — what does success look like to YOU?
Not your neighbor. Not your coworker. Not the person on social media. You.
In this episode, I’m dropping questions to make you think, reminders to keep you grounded, and the motivation to keep building — even when the journey gets heavy. Don’t let obstacles make you forget what you’re built for.
Because the version of success that’s got your name on it — it’s already written. You just gotta keep walking the path.

“Every problem introduces a person to himself.” – John McDonnell
Let’s be real — pain has a way of knocking the wind out of you when least expected. You didn’t ask for it. You didn’t see it coming. And yet, here you are… face to face with the version of yourself that only shows up when life gets real.
In this solo episode, I'm not speaking from a place of perfection, but from a place of honesty. In life, pain doesn’t announce itself - but when it shows up it forces you to pause, pivot, and press through.
This isn’t just about survival, this is about reclaiming your power.
We don’t erase the pain — we reframe it. We don’t pretend it didn’t hurt — we own it, and we decide to heal forward.
Healing doesn’t have a deadline. Your timeline is yours and yours alone — but know this: you will heal… if you choose to chase it.

Welcome back to the guest chair Lanise Shortell — a pediatric and perinatal hospice nurse with over 20 years of experience walking families through their most tender moments. She is a global grief advocate who trains physician fellows at Emory University and abroad on the emotional landscapes of pediatric end-of-life care. Most recently, Lanise became became the Co-Owner of Pediatric Hospice and Palliative Care of Georgia - offering comforting care for families during every step of their journey.
Lanise became a student of grief at just 4 years old, after a tragic accident shattered her sense of safety and family overnight. That rupture became a lifelong teacher — one that now informs the way she serves families facing unthinkable loss.
This episode is for anyone navigating the quiet ache of loss, or sitting beside someone who is.
In this episode, we discussed:
- The moment Lanise’s life drastically changed by unimaginable loss.
- What it means to honor grief without trying to fix it.
- How grief can shape — and sometimes become — our life’s work.
- What pediatric hospice work teaches about presence, not performance.
- Her work globally and nationally training.
- What we all can do to help families grieving everyday, but especially during the holidays.
This conversation is a reminder that grief doesn’t need to be rushed, silenced or solved - It simply needs to be held.

In this episode, I share:
- How pressure and purpose birth The Boldroom
- What it really means to be “built to not quit”
- How we should stop waiting for permission and reframe our path.
- What’s coming next in the podcast: real guests, bold conversations, and transformational tools

Ever been hit with those familiar questions—“So, are you dating anyone?” or “When are you getting married?” In this honest solo episode, we flip the script on outdated narratives and challenge the belief that singleness is something to be fixed.
Whether you're single, dating, married, or somewhere in between, this conversation is for you. We'll unpack what it really means to be a whole individual, debunk some of the myths surrounding singleness, and explore how a healthy relationship starts with a healthy single—not a search for completion.
After this episode, you’ll walk away seeing singleness through a fresh lens—with more clarity, more confidence, and maybe even a little more compassion.

In this powerful and candid episode, Hannah shares how her journey through breast cancer that led her to create Hannah’s Superbad Podcast a space to bring hope, humor, and healing to others walking a similar path. Through laughter, tears, and truth-telling, Hannah reminds us that even in life’s heaviest battles, light can be found—and shared.
This episode is more than a story of survival. It’s a testament to what happens when you choose to live out loud, love harder, and light the way for someone else.

“I had to get out of survival mode—and I have to live. You can do both at the same time.” – CeeCee McGriff
In this powerful replay, I sit down with CeeCee McGriff, a two-time breast cancer survivor and the founder of Survive and Live Life, a nonprofit dedicated to helping others boldly share their stories of survival. From treatments and surgeries to navigating the emotional aftershocks of cancer, CeeCee’s mission is to remind survivors that it’s possible to both survive and truly live.
After receiving her second diagnosis, CeeCee made the courageous decision to undergo a double mastectomy with reconstruction—and in doing so, stepped into a new chapter of advocacy, healing, and joy.
In our conversation, we talked about:
- Her journey through the toughest moments of her life
- Learning to live fully after living in survival mode
- The power of second opinions in healthcare
- What to say—and what NOT to say—to someone going through cancer

This episode is for the woman who looks like she has it all together—but behind the scenes, she’s barely holding on. She shows up. She gets things done. She keeps the world spinning for everyone else. But in the process, she's forgotten how to care for herself.
In this deeply honest and empowering conversation, Certified Life Coach Michelle Hibbert joins us to speak directly to the high-functioning, silently struggling woman who’s living in survival mode. Michelle shares how burnout, anxiety, and self-neglect often hide beneath a smile and a polished exterior—and what happens when women stop asking, What do I need?
If you’ve ever felt like you lost yourself while trying to hold everything together, this episode is your invitation to come home to yourself—without guilt.
You’ll learn:
- Why burnout is so often accepted as “just life” for women
- The invisible signs of high-functioning anxiety
- How slowing down can be the most radical act of self-trust
- What happens when you start asking yourself the right questions
- Practical ways to reclaim rest, worth, and inner peace

Relationships often start with so much excitement and hope - Those butterflies when you first see someone can quickly fade into doubt as you begin to notice behaviors that don’t quite feel right.
Every relationship faces challenges and problems, but a healthy one is built on trust, respect and open communication. When those foundations crack, unhealthy patterns like dishonesty, contempt, and suspicion can take hold. Experts call these warning signs red flags — behaviors that signal potential harm and threaten the future of the relationship.
In this solo episode, we discuss these red flags. We discuss ranges from simple disagreements opinions to serious anger issues that can impact your safety. Not all red flags are equal. We’ll explore:
- What counts as a red flag?
- Are red flags the same for everyone?
- Is there ever better to walk away and when might it be worth addressing the issue and work/heal the issue.
- What is the term yellow flag and how it differs from red flags?
Some warning signs are obvious early on, while others may be subtle and harder to spot. We focus on 12 key red flags in this episode - but please know, there are many more to be aware of. Don’t let your guard down...and protect your peace; your well-being always comes first.

“The world wants you to be exactly who you are - because nothing will happen if you aren't. You are enough and your enough is what changes the world”-By Erin Bahadur
Do you know you are enough, more importantly do you believe you are enough? Even in your situation, mess or brokenness? You are enough! Take some time to listen and start paying attention to the way you speak to yourself about yourself. Stop listening to the unsolicited opinions of others and instead focus on the things that you cherish about yourself today.
In this Solo episode I share points I know to be true that can help you learn to be content and satisfied in knowing you are enough:
- No one is perfect. Perfection is not the goal - authenticity is.
- Stop the comparison trap - it steals your joy.
- There is more right about than you than you realize.
- Learn to accept who you are and where you are today, while working to become a better version of yourself tomorrow.
- You cannot hate your way into loving yourself.
This isn’t a one-time revelation. It’s a daily practice—something we grow into over time. Life changes. People come and go. But you? You’re worth showing up for, every single day.

"Pain often reveals the parts of us that need the most attention. We must stop carrying pain as our identity and start honoring it as a chapter, not a conclusion"
Pain has a way of consuming everything—our thoughts, our energy, even our sense of identity. But what if pain isn’t the end of the story? What if it's the beginning of something deeper, stronger, and more powerful?
In this solo episode of The Path Podcast, we look at The Path’s Survival Guide—a framework for moving through pain and from pain. Whether it’s personal, professional, or emotional pain, the goal is the same: to move forward—not unscarred, but unbroken.
Pain often reveals the parts of us that need the most attention. We must stop carrying pain as our identity and start honoring it as a chapter, not a conclusion.
For anyone who is still in the middle of their healing there isn't a time set to get to your healing. You don’t have to rush there—but you do have to believe it exists. Let this episode be your reminder that you're not alone, and your healing is worth fighting for.
Do the work. Release the pain, restore your strength, and step boldly into who you're becoming

“Success isn’t a finish line you cross—it’s the path you create with every step forward” - Will Smith — and with every next step, no two individual paths will ever look the same. While we may admire the achievements of others, the truth is, we don’t see the sacrifices, struggles, and resilience it took for them to get there.
In this week’s solo episode, I challenge you to define success for yourself. What does success look like to YOU? Too often, we compare our progress to someone else’s, forgetting that our journey is uniquely ours to walk.
I’ve learned never to wish for someone else’s success—because I don’t know what they had to endure to achieve it. Some people make it look easy, but for every one person who had a smooth ride, three more had to fight for every step forward.
In this episode, I am sharing thought provoking questions and dropping some gems for all to think about as you build your dreams. Keep building and remember obstacles are not roadblocks, but stepping stones to the success that’s meant for you.
See you on the other side of success!!

What if the way you see your life is holding you back?
In this solo episode, I'm taking a deep dive into the power of reframing—a mindset shift that can reshape how you see yourself, your challenges, and your opportunities. With the right perspective, you can turn obstacles into growth, setbacks into lessons, and rewrite your story in a way that empowers and inspires you and others.
The stories we tell ourselves shape our reality, but what if you made the decision to rewrite them? What if a simple shift in perspective could unlock more joy, success, and confidence?
We discuss, how to recognize the limiting stories we tell ourselves and more.
If you follow Lisa Nichols, one of the world’s most-requested motivational speakers, you’ve likely heard her share the powerful words of wisdom her grandmother always told her:
“When you get to the end of your journey in your later years, you’re supposed to sit in your rocking chair and share stories with anyone who will listen. So baby, you need to make sure the story you’re going to share is REAL GOOD. Now, I want you to go out and make a great story.”- Grandma B

In this solo episode, I'm here to have a heartfelt chat, offering encouragement, posing thought-provoking questions, and sharing the story of an extraordinary young woman who deeply moved me.
Imagine being told that you only have a 2% chance of survival?
This was not just a hypothetical question for Jane Marczewski; it was her reality. Known as “Nightbirde,” Jane was a talented singer whose powerful audition and story left everyone in awe on America’s Got Talent. As I learned more about her courageous journey through cancer, I was brought to tears and profoundly inspired. My hope is that Nightbirde’s story will resonate with you, encouraging you to reflect on your own life and reigniting your spirit to face challenges fearlessly, no matter what you’re up against today.

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you’re trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low but the debts are high,
And you want to smile but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest if you must, but don’t you quit. - Edgar A. Guest
(Click here for entire poem (https://successminded.co/dont quit)
In this solo episode, we are stating one major point - “Don’t Quit” - “Get Back On Track”.
It’s never too late, it’s okay to start over or re-evaluate the plans you set in the beginning of the New Year.
We are now in the 4th Quarter of the year and many have given up on their dreams. Many are questioning was the dream real and many are ready to put the business plan back on the shelf, because obstacles has caused delays.
Remember, progress isn’t always linear, and every step forward is a step closer to your goals. Keep pushing, stay resilient, and don’t quit. The journey might be challenging, but the rewards are worth the effort.

“Holding on is believing that there’s only a past; letting go is knowing that there’s a future.” ― Daphne Rose Kingma
Letting go of the life you imagined doesn't mean abandoning your dreams but rather reshaping them to fit the reality you find yourself in.
We all know that letting go of something or someone we longed for, dreamed of, planned for or wished for is one of the hardest things we will ever do. No one person’s situation is the same, but the one thing I know for sure is there are times we must let go of the past in order to embrace the future.
Listen in for my tips that will help you move forward on this journey to finding peace in your life.
We must let go of the life we have planned, so as to accept the one that is waiting for us. - Joseph Campbell

“I Never Lose. I Either Win or I Learn” - Nelson Mandela
Ask anyone in business if they’ve ever had to pivot and I’m sure the overwhelming response would be YES! Recognizing the right time to pivot is a crucial skill for both businesses and individuals. The ability to change courses swiftly and effective can be crucial to ones success.
At some point in our lives we’ve all had to make a pivotal decision, the decision to completely change the way we’ve done something or continue to persevere.
When businesses are looking to pivot, it is to help the company improve revenue or survive in the market. Goals for individuals are not much different from a business when it comes to improving or surviving when you think about it. An individual may find they need to change course after a pivotal life event, when things feel off or they’re unsatisfied -perhaps out of alignment. We can also experience some sort of inspiration causing one to pivot.
Regardless of what the root cause, it’s important to equate a pivot personally or professionally as an evolution rather than failure.

Embracing Life's Unexpected Detours
“Often what may appear as a detour in life is actually the most direct and empowering path to your destination” - James Arthur Ray
Life is often compared to a journey along a path, and just like any path, it comes with its fair share of detours and unexpected turns. Embracing these detours can be challenging and overwhelming at times if we allow ourselves to look beyond what is happening around us. Most times these detours are teaching us important lessons that are essential for growth and discovery. In order to overcome and navigate the detours in life, business and/or careers it takes adopting a resilient mindset and the will to adapt to the changes.
Keep an open mind and think on things that are still positive while working through the detours. Rather than viewing detours as obstacles, see them as opportunities for new experiences and lessons that enrich your journey.
In this Solo episode I share:

Success looks different for everyone. For some our Path’s may end at the same destination, but undoubtedly the journey there won’t be the same.
In this week’s solo episode, we’re asking what does success look like to you? We have a tendency to look at others who appear to be successful and we expect our outcome or journey to imitate what we see, but in all honesty we don’t know what it took for them to get there. ‘
I’ve learn never to wish for what others have, because I don’t know what they had to go through to get it. We are not saying every successful person struggled, but for everyone one that didn’t struggle it’s possible 3 did.
In this episode I am asking questions and leaving advice for all to think about as you build your dreams. Keep building and don’t allow obstacles to stop you from obtaining the success that is designed for you on your journey.
See you on the other side of success!!

This week I’m doing a (Rewind) solo episode sharing The Path’s Survival Guide to Embracing The Detours of Life.
One of the most frustrating things in the world to me besides bad traffic is having to detour because of it. No one likes to change direction or take a longer route, but we are often forced to do so at some point especially if you’re driving in Georgia. Life is no different. Detours are most times not expectant and can be overwhelming.
What do you do when life requires you to detour from your normal comfortable life? Do you freeze in time? Do you sit in a state of shock or do you fight to move out of your comfort zone, reroute and change directions? There’s a quote that reads,
“Often what may appear as a detour in life is actually the most direct and empowering path to your destination” - James Arthur Ray
In this Solo episode I share:

Quote: “Every problem introduces a person to himself” - John McDonnell
A painful experience can abruptly stop anyone in their tracks. No one plans for painful experiences and no one is exempt from them. It’s during the most difficult times in our lives that we discover a different version of ourselves. Although our stories can be different, the fight to come through it all unscathed is the goal for everyone.
In today’s solo episode we walk through The Path’s Survival Guide to moving through and from pain to pivoting when necessary. We don't forget the pain, but we must acknowledge the it and seek healing from it so you don’t become paralyze in the pain. It is a process and the time it takes for you to heal will not be the same as another persons healing, but know that you will heal if you are willing to pursue it…just like the BOLD women on The Path Podcast.

Relationships often begin with so much promise. What started out as butterflies when you see them, quickly turns into you questioning their actions and words as they let their guard down and be themselves.
All relationships have their own challenges and problems, but a healthy relationship at the basis is often built on a foundation of trust, respect and two-way communication. Unhealthy relationships lack those key beliefs and may swap in dishonesty, contempt and suspicion. Experts call these hurtful behaviors red flags, which can lead to an unsustainable and unhealthy relationship.
In this solo episode, we are discussing how red flags can range from differing opinions to anger issues that turn into safety concerns. What does that term red flag mean exactly? Are all red flags the same for everyone? Is there every a reason to walk away, or does it ever make sense to address the red flag and mend the relationship? What is the term yellow flag and how does it differs from red flags?
Some warning signs may be obvious from the get-go, while others may be trickier to detect. We are only listing 12 red flags in this episode, but there are many more that could have been discussed. Don't let your guard down... when it's what protects you and your peace.

“You can’t wait until life isn’t hard anymore before you decide to be happy” ― Jane Marczewski aka Nightbirde
In this solo episode, I’m dropping in to do a quick chat to encourage, ask questions and share a story of a young lady that touched my heart.
What if life told you, you only have a 2% chance of survival?
That was some of what Jane Marczewski doctors shared with her as she battled cancer. The question I’m asking you wasn’t a question for Jane, it was her reality. Jane, aka “NightBirde” was a beautiful singer whose audition and story left every person in shock on America’s Got Talent. I was so intrigued to find out more about this young lady and when I did, it left me in tears and inspired. I pray Nightbirde’s journey will inspire you to think about your life and re-energize you to live fearless no matter what you’re battling with today.

“Holding on is believing that there’s only a past; letting go is knowing that there’s a future.” ― Daphne Rose Kingma
In this solo episode, we are walking the path of letting go of the life we imagined. We all know that letting go of something or someone we longed for, dreamed of, planned for or wished for is one of the hardest things we will ever do.
No one person’s situation is the same, but the one thing I know for sure is there are times we must let go of the past in order to embrace the NOW.
Listen in for my tips that will help you move forward on this journey to finding peace in your life.
We must let go of the life we have planned, so as to accept the one that is waiting for us. - Joseph CampbellMentions: Katy Graham www.EverydayConfidenceCoaching.com

LIVE April 22, 2023 @ 7:00 pm EST on Facebook: Join Dr. Gena Saxby Crawford and guest speakers discussing “How Can I Live A Balanced, Blessed and Bold Life."
Dr. Gena Saxby Crawford is the Pastor of PowerPoint Christian Ministries and founder of LSC Ministries. You may remember Dr. Crawford from Season 1 Ep4 Pt 1 & Pt 2, this author, consultant and educator is back with a new conference called “The Room Experience”.
“Have you ever felt uneasy in a room and decided that it was time to leave? Have you ever been ordered to stay in one place and felt like the walls were closing in on you? Are there rooms in your house that you loathe spending time in? As a child, were there rooms that you were forbidden to enter? Life will often present opportunities for all of us to experience challenges however, in the middle of the experience we often fail to see them as opportunities for growth or change. When things get interesting or uncomfortable, our first inclination is to leave the space.
What if in this space, is your healing or answers for which you long? What if it is the will of God for you to take time to sit and stay in the place you are so adamant about running from? By definition, a room is a space that presents the opportunity for something to be done. Not only is it space, but sufficient space that fits the occasion…any occasion. If the occasion is healing, there’s space in the room. If the occasion is forgiveness or revelation…it’s in the room!
Part of the issue with staying in the room, is the fact that where you live often has more than one room for you to retreat to. This makes it quite easy to run from one room to another, leaving pieces of you in different places. Why is staying in one room important? It allows you to stay focus, it allows you to feel what you need to feel, and let go of what you need to let go. Staying in the room presents the opportunity for you to sit still long enough to let the tears flow, the anger grow and the peace to show.” Join us LIVE: The Room Experience - Live Facebook April 22, 2023 @ 7pm EST.

“I Never Lose. I Either Win or I Learn” - Nelson Mandela
Ask anyone in business if they’ve ever had to pivot and I’m sure the overwhelming response would be YES! At some point in our lives we’ve all had to make the decision to completely change the way we’ve done something or continue to persevere.
When businesses are looking to pivot, it is to help the company improve revenue or survive in the market. Goals for individuals are not much different from a business when it comes to improving or surviving when you think about it. An individual may find they need to change course after a pivotal life event, when things feel off or they’re unsatisfied. Perhaps out of alignment. We can also experience some sort of inspiration causing one to pivot.
Regardless of what the root cause, it’s important to equate a pivot with business/individual evolution rather than business/individual failure.

In this final episode of 2022, we discuss why it’s important for us to make the time to reflect, reset and renew.
REFLECT on what we’ve learned, what we achieved and the things that may have called for us to RESET and change directions. If we make the time to be fully present and intentional about our growth we will start to RENEW in order for a rebirthing to begin. Understanding and accepting when we need to change The Path we’re on awakens a renewing similar to a rebirth that brings about new thoughts and ideas.
I've also included in this episode, what you can expect from The Path Podcast in 2023. I'm looking forward to new beginnings and blessings for each one of us.
See you next year!!

“The world wants you to be exactly who you are - because nothing will happen if you aren't. You are enough and your enough is what changes the world”-By Erin Bahadur
In this weeks solo episode, I want you to imagine it’s just you and I on the couch having a conversation - we both know it’s a safe space - and we trust each other as we discuss knowing and believing that YOU ARE ENOUGH. What feelings enter your mind and body when you hear you are enough?
Do you know you are enough, more importantly do you believe you are enough? Even in your situation, mess or brokenness? You are not enough because I said you are..it’s just simply YOU ARE! Take some time to listen and start paying attention to the way you speak to yourself about yourself. Stop listening to the unsolicited opinions of others and instead focus on the things that you cherish about yourself today.
In this Solo episode I share points I know to be true that can help you learn to be content and satisfied in knowing you are enough:
- No one is perfect.
- Stop the comparison trap
- There is more right about than you care to admit.
- Learn to accept who you are and where you are today, while working to become a better version of yourself.
- You cannot hate your way into loving yourself.
This is not a huge one time event. As long as we are living we should speak positivity into our lives, as things change and as people come and go.
If you need help consider reaching out to me. We are waiting to see the real and whole you show up in the world.

The month of October is known to bring awareness to many great causes. Today, my guest Mrs. Judith “Judy” Tanksley-Castro and I discuss surviving Domestic Violence. We also discuss her bravery and healing from sexual assault and substance abuse. It is our hope to always support and advocate for survivors, mourn those we’ve lost and celebrate those working continuously to heal and recover. It is essential that we keep spreading the word, as domestic abuse has risen since COVID 19.
Mrs. Judith is one of the most inspiring and resilient examples of someone who never gave up and will share her testimony to bring awareness to everyone who will listen. It is important to note that every domestic violence survivor’s story is unique and “after” isn’t always clear and safe. As difficult as it was to cover all Mrs. Judith overcame in 1 hour, it was just as difficult to know she had to endure so much starting at such a young age. But, in her words “But Yet I Live”. Her persistence and fight to live, allowed her to later accomplish goals she had as a young lady. Mrs Judith received her Bachelors Degree in Psychology and then her Masters Degree in 2019 at the age of 64 years young. She is not stopping there and now looking to relocate to the Atlanta Georgia area as soon as she finds employment in her field. Anyone seeking a vibrant, eager person to work with Seniors or to be a Case Manager, please contact Mrs. Judith at “judyanndevotional@gmail.com".
In this episode, Judith and I discussed:
- Her Path: Surviving Domestic & Sexual violence and Substance Abuse.
- How words and our environment matters. Some of us display what we see and say.
- How It’s NEVER TOO late to accomplish your goals receiving her Masters Degree (2019)

This week I’m back with a Solo episode sharing The Path’s Survival Guide to Embracing The Detours of Life.
One of the most frustrating things in the world to me besides bad traffic is having to detour because of it. No one likes to change direction or take a longer route, but we are often forced to do so at some point especially if you’re driving in Georgia. Our life's journey is no different. Detours most times are not expectant and can be overwhelming.
What do you do when life requires you to detour from your normal comfortable life? Do you freeze in time? Do you sit in a state of shock or do you fight to move out of your comfort zone, reroute and change directions? There’s a quote that reads,
“Often what may appear as a detour in life is actually the most direct and empowering path to your destination” - James Arthur Ray
In this Solo episode I share:
- 4 Survival Guide Tips to Embracing The Detours of Life

“Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.” Lamentations 3:22-23
When worry spool round and round in the dark of night, the morning brings us reminders of God’s amazing mercy. Mornings symbolize freshness, new beginnings, and hope. We have to be reminded to look for the light in God’s word to break through those dark times to give us hope.

“When we don’t tell kids what is happening around them, they are going to imagine what is going on” - Andrea Warnick
In today’s episode, Shanice McLeish Author of Grief On The Playground and Founder of Grieving It discussed her passion to “Normalize Grief” one conversation at a time. Shanice and her families life was forever changed when she was only 8 years old when they received the devastating news of her fathers death.
Death is the one thing we all have in common and the one thing most of us wish NEVER to discuss. More and more we are realizing thankfully to Shanice that it is one of the MOST important conversations we need to have not only as adults, but with our children. Shanice said her business “Serves as a safe place for people to share their mourning and lean into their grief journey”. Sit with Shanice and I for a while as she recounts the days and years after that devastating day that pushed her into a purpose bigger than she could imagine.
Shanice’s book Grief on the Playground is necessary for all children who have lost someone they loved. It is a story which takes you on a ride through the ‘grief rollercoaster’.
In this episode, Shanice and I discussed:
- How her life changed after losing her father, at the age of 8.
- How she learned to cope.
- What led her to writing a book and starting Grieving It that offers free resources and activities to help families dive into, communicate with and understand their grief.
- FREE!! Book Give Away to the Listener who responds to this episode first. Listen to find out how and who is the WINNER!!

Quote: "Every problem introduces a person to himself"- John McDonnell
A painful experience can abruptly stop anyone in their tracks. No one plans for painful experiences and no one is exempt from it. It’s during the most difficult times in our lives that we discover a different version of ourselves. Although our stories can be different, the fight to come through it all unscathed is the goal for everyone.
In today’s solo episode, we will walk through The Path’s Survival Guide to moving through and from pain to pivoting when necessary. We don't forget the pain, but we must acknowledge it and seek healing to avoid becoming paralyze from the pain. It is a process and the time it takes for you to heal will not be the same as another person's healing, but know that you will heal if you are willing to pursue it…just like the BOLD women on The Path Podcast.

Thank you to those who come back bi-weekly to listen. I would love to connect and hear your thoughts and opinions after each show.

The New Year begins in a few days and who is not excited about experiencing something NEW? But, we cannot just bypass the last few days left in 2021 looking forward to 2022. Don’t over look these last couple of days as if something good cannot happen before 2022.
Whatever I expect in 2022, I can have in 2021!

It is easy to get caught up in the details of the big day and not think beyond walking down the aisle and dancing into the night. But what do you do when life happens and you are confronted with the vows that test your faith? We promise to love “For Better or for Worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death do us part? My guest Shelia Turner and her husband knew the decisions they made before getting married would determine the marriage they would have and made before God and to each other.
As a a loving wife, mother, grandmother Shelia also co-founded a non-profit entitled https://www.byfaithnotsight.org (2 Corinthians 5:7) with husband of 31 years and counting David Turner after a medical diagnosis. Family is everything to the Turners and it shows through their day to day lives and non-profit that “focuses on families that are going through all types of medical situations. The non-profit was formed to offer hope, encouragement and support to not only the patient who is dealing with the medical situation, but also the family who may be suffering in silence with no one to talk to about their situation.
If you or your family need support and encouragement the Turners faith is unwavering and will be honored to have you connect with By Faith Not Sight Inc to you and your family hope on your journey.

Ever had things happened in your life and felt like it was fate or thought it was just a coincidence? With over 20 years experience exploring and working within the field of holistic wellbeing with a focus on the spiritual/metaphysical Nikki believes there are “No mistakes, no coincidences everything is within your power.” Things started to open up for Nikki after a synchronistic meeting an energy healer; 2 years later in her words “her world crashed”.
Nikki wrote “to accept ourselves fully we witness the truth that everything life puts in front of us is “learning”. It is a rite of passage that life holds challenges but these can be used as catalysts for change- if they keep repeating without conscious understanding we can suffer physically through dis-ease and at worst live blindly to our greatest potential.”
Fact: 1 in 4 women will lose a baby during pregnancy, delivery or infancy.
A fact that is hard to hear, but for a lot of women (myself included) it’s even harder to experience.
As an Angel Mama, Danielle Nicole founded Tiny Hearts Remembered, Inc after the tragic loss of having a miscarriage. Through her pain Danielle discovered purpose and vision. Danielle knew what it felt like and what other women needed to help them navigate through such a difficult time. To choose my words carefully -This non-profit was BIRTHED with the love, tenderness, care and strength that only a loving mother can give. Please visit her website below for the private groups, programs and merchandise to help you or someone you know navigate this journey if needed.
“To me pink represents the love I will always have for my angel.
To me blue represents the healing power of God through my journey.
To me white represents the enlightenment of Pregnancy and Infant Loss.
Healing does not mean forgetting.
Remember...Together We Will Heal”

Stunned with fear and emotions after hearing You Have Breast Cancer is what Hannah Hopkins Walton felt in 2017 after a doctors visit. Hannah wrote “I wondered about the big things. Am I going to die?

In this episode, we will discuss the importance of knowing your worth and making the decision not to accept anything or anyone that doesn’t honor your value. As Cynthia Urquhart so matter of fact stated “We All Have A Wobble Effect” that we have to overcome. Cynthia shared with me over 10 years ago her memoir that has not officially been published, entitled “We Won’t Wobble Always”. Whatever you’re going through - Deal with that one mistake / obstacle and FACE IT head on until you OVERCOME it!

Welcome to the very first episode of The Path Podcast
In this episode I will share the vision for this podcast and tell you about me, your host Arlene Bolden - Korleh. This episode will explain why I was inspired to start this podcast.
We have all a story that is our Path in life. Some of our stories are happy and some are not so happy, but they makeup our Path. There will be times when your journey is straight and filled with many highs and then one day you hit a bump or crash that knocks you off course causing detours and at times U-Turns. Life goes from DREAMS to DETOURS and ultimately if you do the internal work and learn the lesson it can lead - to Destiny/Purpose.
On my Path you will hear about how I rediscovered my purpose after a series of events, losing my mother at the age of 12, experiencing a miscarriage and a year later blessed with having our daughter to 2 years later facing divorce. Another major obstacle that I briefly touched on was being laid off 3 times in 4 years. I will share more about that experience in a separate episode.
You will learn when obstacles come how they have a strange way of redirecting you back to your authentic self who was always there. When faced with obstacles hear what we did to move pass the pain and disappointments and what we learned in order to grow and move into starting non-profits, businesses and purpose.
Plus, I’ll tell you what to expect each week on the show and give you a sneak peek at our first guest.
