Hey Real Talk Family! Today we are discussing the importance of getting back up after life knocks you down. There are so many situations that can bring us down, but we have to find the strength to not let those things destroy us. We can GET BACK UP by calling on the Name of Jesus, talking to a trusted friend or seeking the help of a professional. Whatever you need to do, just do it. Your loved ones need you to get back up!

Hey Hey Real Talk Fam! Today we are diving into a topic that could literally be on repeat if necessary. We're talking about Gratitude and how it can literally shift your life.

Here it is Real Talk Fam. The conversation with none other than my lovely Husband, Andrew. Somehow I convinced him to get behind a mic so that we can share our story. If you've never heard it before, we both had thought that God had forgotten about us in our seasons of singleness, but today we share about how God's delay was actually His perfect timing.

Today on Real Talk with Miss V, we are talking about the greatest decision we will ever make..... Following Jesus. But in order to follow Jesus, we have to follow His command to "take up our cross". What does that mean? I'm glad you asked. Take a listen to hear how you can take up your cross and follow the greatest Man to ever walk this earth!

Hey friend...... it's time to heal!!! Today's episode is a heavy one. We are dealing with matter's of the heart and mind today and I am challenging and encouraging us to begin our healing journey. Life can be full of painful situations, but if we don't face them head on and heal from the ones that have left wounds, we may end up hurting others along the way. So let today be the day, that you decide to heal!
Let's Talk!
HAPPY MARCH BREAK!! Today's episode is for the one who is go-go-go and maybe doesn't see the necessity is "taking a break". Rest is a very important part of being able to live and function properly. If we don't listen to our bodies and take that break, it may force us to take it, whether we want to or not. On this March Break, may you find rest!
Let's Talk!
On today's episode we are talking about what it means to be an Authentic Christian! Many of us have learned how to act, talk, walk, dress and be "Christians" but few of us have learned the beauty in keeping it real....with ourselves, with Jesus and with others. What does that mean? It means we need to be able and willing to show the sometimes broken, messed up, not-so-great version of ourselves while pointing to a perfect, always Great, wonderful God!
Let's Talk!
ONLY JESUS. That’s right, I said it. Today we’re talking about how “Only Jesus” can do ALL things and there is no other name more powerful than Jesus! Sometimes we think our problems or shortcomings are too much for Him to handle, but the truth is, He is ready and waiting for us to just let Him in and do what only He can do.
Let’s Talk!
On today's episode of Real Talk with Miss V, we had the privilege of interviewing our friend, Matt Pineau, who shares with us his incredible story of how God brought him through one of the scariest moments of his life. Find out how a concussion revealed an even greater underlying issue and follow along his journey to see how God used that situation to display the miraculous! This is one of those "But God" stories! Let's Talk!
Just One Moment. A statement. A declaration. A way of life. I believe wholeheartedly that "Just One Moment" with Jesus changes everything. If you need Peace, spend time with Jesus. If you feel hopeless, call on Jesus. When you feel alone........ Jesus! After experiencing a significant loss recently, I share how Just One Moment with Jesus has helped ease that pain. Let's Talk!
Perfect Love! The Love of our Saviour can only be described as Perfect! He chose you and I before we ever knew Him. And He loved us so much that He became a man, The Man Christ Jesus and died on the cross for you and I. Why would He do such a thing? Perfect Love, that's why!
Okay Real Talk family........ It's time to ask ourselves a tough question. And for some, the answer will be an easy YES. But for others, this may be a difficult one to answer because life doesn't always go according to our plans. Today we're talking about PEACE. And more specifically, "Perfect Peace" which we know can only come from God. So my question to you today is, "Do you have peace in your life, mind and heart today?" Let's Talk!
"Choose ye this day" is all about choices. Life is full of decisions that need to be made and every single choice we make has an outcome attached to it. Today we're going to talk about one of the biggest decisions that we have to make in our lifetime. Buckle up, cuz it's a good one. Let's Talk!
Happy New Year Real Talk Fam!! It's hard to believe that it's already 2023! I know a lot of us are making goals and possibly some new year resolutions. That's all fine and dandy. But there are some things from 2022 that we need to just leave in 2022 and so join me today as we dive into that. Let's Talk!
Hey Real Talk Family!! Today's episode is special and you will not want to skip past this one. Today we have a very first guest on Real Talk with Miss V and we are so excited for you to hear all that God has done in Claire's life and all that He is continuing to do. Everyone has that moment where God becomes real to them and today, Claire is going to share her story with us. Let's Talk!!
Here we are, just two weeks away from Christmas and I've decided to release an episode titled Trading "Presents" for Presence. Now don't be alarmed, I'm not saying you have to go return all your gifts or not receive any from loved ones, but I am challenging us to choose something that is far more valuable this year...... Presence!
Let's Talk!
Ok here we go! Today we are talking about silencing the Naysayers in our lives. Those people who always reply with negativity or reasons why things "won't" work out. Sadly, sometimes, WE are the Naysayer in our own lives and we need to know the tools to quiet that disruptive voice. Let's Talk!
What Now? A question you may have asked yourself or others. Today we're discussing what happens next after giving God your yes, taking a leap of faith or heading the Voice of God. What Now is the episode you need to hear if you fall into any of those categories.
This episode might be a hard one for some, but I need you to know that it's ok to not have it all together. It's ok to not be ok! Sometimes we think that we have to put on this facade that makes others believe that we have no struggles. But the truth is, we all struggle. And once we get real about our struggles, then and only then can we be free. "Let's Talk"!!

Today we are talking about the Power of Prayer!!!!! We have direct access to the Throne of Heaven through prayer and once we recognize how powerful it is, we can begin to unlock miracles in our lives and in the lives of those around us.
How many of you have heard or used the line "But what if"? Sometimes we can use that in a doubtful, fearful or negative way. What if something goes wrong? What if I try and fail? Or what if it costs me something? Well today, we are challenging that way of thinking and using the very same line but with a positive spin on it. "Let's Talk!"
On today's episode of Real talk with Miss V, we are diving in deep, exploring the term Divine Design. By the end of this episode, my prayer is that each and every one one of us will have a deeper understanding of how Big and how Great our God is.
Happy (Canadian) Thanksgiving Everyone! Today we are starting off season 2 with "Thankfulness". One of the ways we can enrich our lives and truly have a deeper appreciation for what we have is to remain in a state of thankfulness. Today we're gonna take inventory of our hearts and realize how much we have to be thankful for.
This is not your ordinary "knock knock story". Today we are diving in and talking about the knock at the door of your heart. Jesus is knocking and today my question to you is, "Will you let Him in"?
Today we're diving into a topic that they be tough hard to talk about. Sometimes things of this world can tempt us to go back to the life that God brought us out of, but I'm here today to remind you "Don't look back" cuz that life has nothing to offer you. Come along for the conversation today and let the work speak to your heart!
Wait on The Lord. Yea I say, WAIT!!!!! Today we're talking on a topic that many of us struggle with. Waiting on answers or for prayers to be answered can be difficult at times, but trust me when I say, it's worth waiting for. In fact, God's Word says if we wait on the Lord, we will renew our strength. Join me today as I share my own journey (struggle) with waiting!
This week we are talking about overcoming the battles that we face, day to day. One thing to remember is that, Victory belongs to Jesus and He promises to fight our battle's for us.
Tune in today for a word that will help you overcome.
Guess what?? I've got some really good news to share!! Life-changing news. Incredible news. I don't want to give it away in the description, but trust me, you're gonna wanna hear it!
We can probably all quote the familiar passage of Scripture that highlights that all things work together for good (Rom 8:28), but today I want us to dive deeper into what this really means for us!! Do we truly believe that God has our best and that He has the final say? Let's talk!
This week on Episode 13 (not 14 lol), we are talking about Matters of the Heart. In the natural and spiritual sense, a healthy heart is vital to our well-being. So take a few moments to hear what the Word has to say about our hearts.
This week on episode 12 we are talking about FAITH! It's a term that is used quite frequently in Christian circles, but my question today is "where is your faith"? "Do you believe that God is able to answer your prayers?" Dive into this episode for encouragement from the scriptures.
Here we are at episode 11 and I thought to myself, "let's switch it up"!! Bear with me! lol
Today I chose to keep it light and maybe even provide a few laughs as I answer some "get to know me" questions. This is your chance to learn a bit more about your host, Miss V. And don't worry, there's always a little nugget of goodness waiting for you in each episode, so listen until the very end :)
Happy Monday!
Today we celebrate Episode 10 and a surprise announcement (in case you don't already know)!! :) Today on Real Talk with Miss V, I want to encourage someone that even though it may not look like it, God has a plan. Life has so many questions and unknowns. especially in todays climate. But one thing that is for sure, is that our God has a plan. And His plan far outweighs anything you or I could come up with. Be encouraged.
Okay y'all..... before you raise your eyebrow at the title, come along for the journey as we talk about the differences between having "religion" or being religious and having a "relationship" with God. It is my personal opinion, that God is more interested in the relationship that we have with Him, than the religion that we represent. Have a listen and feel free to join the conversation.
Have you ever been in a situation and said to yourself, "how am I gonna get out of this mess?" Is life currently feeling like you're walking in quicksand? Or do you just feel the weight of the world on your shoulders? If so, today I'm inviting you to let God into your mess and watch Him work a miracle.
Did you know that every word you speak, holds power. The power to heal or the power to tear down. The power to uplift or the power to criticize. Ultimately the choice is up to us how we use our words on the daily. Today I want us to search within and see if we have been making proper use of the words we speak. Our words have power!
** Please note that this week we had some technical difficulties with the microphone. Please forgive the less than wonderful quality of sound. The word was just too good to scrap ;)
In Episode 6 we are dealing with a topic that may be hard for some of us to accept. Identity Crisis is something that has plagued so many Christians in their lifetime and so today we are gonna face it head on and see what the Word of God has to say about who we are in Christ.
Have you ever been at a place in life where you felt overlooked or invisible? Or have you ever asked the question "God, do you see me? If you answered yes to either of those questions, then this episode is going to help put an end to those thoughts. Join the conversation as we talk about The God Who See's "us".
Episode 4 is here and we are coming in with a word today. The Time is Now is gonna challenge you to step out in Faith, face your fears and be all that you are destined to be. Join the conversation and let these words spark a flame within you.
Oh, and Happy Valentine's Day!!! The time is NOW to send flowers to your Boo ;)
In Episode 3, we are talking about Seasons. Whether you enjoy Summer, Fall, Winter or Spring, the one thing that is constant, is that these season will surely change. In life, we can also go through seasons and some bring sunshine and beauty, while others bring rain clouds and pain. Let's talk today and dive into this very relevant topic.
In Episode 2, we dive into the life-changing encounter that Miss V has with her Saviour. After a somewhat destructive teenage and young adult life, Miss V's life is totally transformed. Be prepared to hear the uncut version of her story and maybe even be encouraged to experience your own story of redemption.
