You don’t need permission to shine—own your light, set your boundaries, and walk in your purpose
Episode 6
Thursday, 16 October, 2025
Send us a textThe moment you stop asking permission to be yourself, the air changes. That’s the heartbeat of our season finale—a warm, candid journey through fear, faith, boundaries, and the quiet practices that rebuild confidence. I share the gratitude that carried me here (my “Minnie Mies,” my daughter-in-love, my husband’s late-night engineering), the joy of turning 58 with a surprise Atlanta trip and a John B. handshake, and the reminder that every age brings a new stage to shine.We revisit the season’s big themes—protecting peace, reading red flags, and being honest about what women want—then go deeper into how presentation and purpose align. Not to police style, but to honor dignity and intention. I talk about shrinking in rooms that felt small, learning to celebrate my children without apologizing, finding circles where I can breathe, and anchoring my mornings in prayer, affirmations, music, and a fresh stack of library books. Confidence isn’t magic; it’s a habit.A live caller opens a rich conversation on imposter syndrome. I trace my path from teen motherhood and shame to a steadier faith that asks, “Why not me?”—and means it. We also hold space for October’s twin spotlights: breast cancer awareness and domestic violence. I share a friend’s loss, celebrate survivors, stress early detection and mobile mammograms, and offer practical steps and resources for leaving abusive situations, especially when fear feels bigger than options. Through it all, the message stays the same: your peace is your power, and your light doesn’t need anyone’s permission.If this conversation lifted you, pass it to someone who needs courage today.
