Activate Your Destiny is the Wednesday podcast for the mom who can feel there is more for her but cannot figure out how it fits inside the life she is actually living. You know you have an assignment. You can feel it. But between the kids, the house, the job you have not left yet, and the dream you have not started yet, you cannot always see how it all connects. That is exactly where this show comes in. Every episode closes the gap between your calling and your Tuesday. We talk about identity, obedience, fear, and the real cost of finally saying yes. Not surface level inspiration. Real convers...

Building Before the Rain Comes w/ Rachel Nelson 11.07.2026

What do you do when God gives you a dream that feels bigger than your capacity and everything around you is dried up and deserted? You keep building. In this episode I sit down with coach, speaker, author, and fellow mom Rachel Nelson who is right in the middle of her own building season. Not on the other side. Right here in it. And together we are getting real about what it actually looks like to...

What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Stronger 01.07.2026

You have heard do it afraid a thousand times. But nobody is talking about what happens when you do not. When you sit in the fear long enough it does not just stay in your head. It gets in your body. Your voice. Your muscles. Your nervous system. All of it. In this episode I am getting real about the time I did a live with a trash can next to me because I was that nervous. The vocal therapy I had t...

The Lessons I learned 25 Episodes Later 01.07.2026

Tonight is episode 25, and we're celebrating live. I'm walking through six real lessons from the last six months of this podcast. The mic I already had before I started. The chair I almost didn't use because it didn't feel "ready." The week Riverside glitched and I had to go live with no backup. The moment I stopped editing myself down to make people comfortable. This is a live Q&A, so I want...

I'm Scared But Doing It Anyway 17.06.2026

You finally stepped out. You started the thing. You set the boundary. And then the fear of rejection showed up anyway. In this episode we break down the difference between the fear of the unknown, the fear of intimacy, the fear of failure, and the fear of judgment and rejection. If you have started feeling exposed, separated, or like you are suddenly too much for everybody, this episode is for you...

Why the Algorithm Wants You in a Box and Why God Never Did 10.06.2026

Society has one job and it is going to do it. Put you in a box. Pick a niche. Choose one thing. Stay in your lane. But what if God gave you more than one gift on purpose. What if the overflow is not a problem to fix but a design to embrace. In this episode we talk about why the world tries to categorize you, how the algorithm reinforces the box, and why Romans 12:6 says something completely differ...

Why Creative Moms Keep Hiding Their Gifts and How to Finally Stop 03.06.2026

Have you ever looked back at your life and realized your creativity was spilling over the whole time and you just did not have a name for it yet. In this episode I share my personal story of being a multifaceted creative who spent years stuffing her gifts into containers they were never made for. From singing only in church to doing makeup as a necessity to planning my daughter's birthday party an...

Why You Know What To Do But Still Won't Start 27.05.2026

You know what you are supposed to do. You have known for a while. So why are you still not moving? In this episode we are talking about why the full plan is not coming before you take the first step and what it actually looks like to stop stalling and start somewhere. Not step one. Step one A. The smallest first piece of the thing you already know you are supposed to do. If you are a mom who keeps...

You've Been Resting Wrong | The 7 Types of Rest Called Moms Actually Need 20.05.2026

Did you know there are seven types of rest. Physical. Mental. Spiritual. Emotional. Social. Sensory. And creative. Most people only ever hand you one definition. Stop moving. Take a nap. But what if that is not what you actually need right now. In this episode of the Activate Your Destiny podcast I break down all seven types of rest and help you figure out which one the ambitious called mom actual...

How Moms Lose the Ability to Say What They Want and How to Get It Back 13.05.2026

It starts with dinner. But it was never really about dinner. If you are a mom who struggles to say what you want this episode is for you. In this episode of the Activate Your Destiny podcast I share a real moment from my birthday where my husband asked me what I wanted and my response was almost always the answer that I thought either he needed, that my children needed, or that somebody else neede...

When God Asks You What YOU Want And You Do Not Know How to Answer 06.05.2026

Have you ever had a moment where God asked you what you wanted and you just sat there? In this episode I share what happened when I sat down to write my vision and why so many called moms struggle to name what they actually desire. We talk about guilt, fear, finances, and why admiring what you want is not the same as pursuing it. Your assignment is waiting. Let's get activated. If this episode is...

When Mom Heals Her Whole Family Thrives 29.04.2026

This week’s episode is a special bonus message originally shared at the Healing Takes a Village Summit hosted by Aaliyah Burgess and The Very Intentional Mama. In this message, I’m sharing why a mother’s healing impacts more than just her. It impacts her children, her relationships, her confidence, and the atmosphere of her home. When mom begins to heal, the whole family can begin to thrive. We ta...

What Happens When Mom Admits She’s Not Okay 22.04.2026

This week on the Activate Your Destiny podcast, I’m sharing a very honest conversation about what happens when a mom realizes nothing is technically wrong… but she is not okay. In this episode, I talk about the shift I’ve been feeling, learning to ask for help, reassessing self-care, releasing what I was carrying, and why acknowledging your needs is not failure, it’s wisdom. If you’ve been feeling...

Obeying God While Raising Kids... The Part No One Talks About w/ Dae Hayes 15.04.2026

In this episode, I sit down with Dae Hayes, podcast producer and host of the Mind Your Own Motherhood podcast, for a real conversation about what it looks like to obey God in the middle of motherhood. Not when everything is calm. Not when life makes sense. But when you’re tired, stretched, and still responsible for everything at home. We talk about: • what obedience actually looks like as a mom •...

Breaking Up With Self-Reliance - A Mom School Testimony w/ Aaliyah Burgess Richburg 08.04.2026

At some point, doing it all on your own stops feeling strong… and starts feeling heavy. In this episode of Activate Your Destiny, I’m sitting down with Aaliyah, one of our Mom School members, to talk about what her life actually looked like before support… and what shifted when she stopped trying to carry everything by herself. Because self-reliance sounds good. Until you’re overwhelmed. Disconnec...

Stop Waiting For Permission: Using Your Current Tools To Build Kingdom Vision 01.04.2026

Stop waiting for permission. In this episode of Activate Your Destiny, I’m sharing what it really looked like to host my first Mom School Live event… not from a place of having everything figured out, but from choosing obedience when the numbers didn’t make sense. Because the truth is… most of us aren’t lacking. We’re overlooking what’s already in our hands. From planning my daughter’s birthday on...

Mom, Your Feelings Might Be Costing You More Than You Think - Wall of Evidence Pt. 5 25.03.2026

This week on the Activate Your Destiny podcast, I’m sharing the story behind my Cornell University certification… and how close I came to missing it simply because I wasn’t in the mood. In this final episode of the Wall of Evidence series, I take you into a season where I was already stretched as a mom, building something new, trying to figure out my identity, and honestly just tired. The last thi...

God Said Leave...So Why Did This Happen Next? 18.03.2026

This is the part nobody talks about… especially as a mom. Everyone will tell you to trust God, take the leap, and walk in obedience. But what happens when you actually do it… and everything gets more confusing? At the time, I wasn’t just working a job. I was a full-time working mom, a wife, building a business, managing daycare, sick days, schedules, and trying to be everything for everybody. And...

Beauty is Only Skin Deep - Wall of Evidence Pt. 3) 18.03.2026

There was a season of my life where I had three kids, I was homeschooling during a pandemic, I was a stay-at-home mom… and I still didn’t know who I was. Somewhere along the way I had become who I thought I needed to be in order to be a good mom and a good wife. But Destiny still hadn’t been discovered. In this episode of the Wall of Evidence series, I’m breaking down another frame behind me — my...

What do you do when life collides with your assignment? In this episode of Activate Your Destiny , Destiny shares a deeply personal part of her Wall of Evidence — a season where a car accident, a concussion, and unresolved legal stress collided with her decision to pursue her paralegal certification. With doctors advising her to stop and every visible sign pointing toward quitting, she had to ask...

When Grace Looks Like Space (Wall of Evidence Series Pt. 1) 25.02.2026

You can be married. Educated. In church. A mom. Accomplished on paper. And still feel completely confused about who you are. In this episode of the Wall of Evidence series, I’m breaking down the first frame behind me — my degrees. At 22, I was a new wife, a new mom, and a college graduate. I thought the cap and gown would bring clarity. It didn’t. Instead, I found myself wrestling with identity, f...

The Emotions Nobody Warns You About When You Start Becoming Yourself Again 19.02.2026

In this episode of Activate Your Destiny I am sharing a part of my story I did not fully understand until years later. I was angry. Angry after losing my job. Angry when my identity shifted. Angry because my worth had been tied to what I produced instead of who I was. If you are in a season where everything feels like it is shifting and you do not know how to name what you are feeling — this conve...

Friendships Change: Why Your Mom Squad Is NON-NEGOTIABLE 18.02.2026

Friendships change especially in motherhood. In this episode of Activate Your Destiny, we’re talking about why community isn’t optional, how friendships evolve as we grow, and why trying to do everything alone was never the plan. Motherhood, marriage, faith, and calling weren’t meant to be carried in isolation. Even Jesus didn’t do life alone and neither are we meant to. This conversation explores...

The Lies Keeping You Stuck in Motherhood (And How to Stop Believing Them) 04.02.2026

Many moms are living with constant internal noise lies about perfection, rest, comparison, and worth that quietly lead to overwhelm and stagnation. In this episode of Activate Your Destiny I get honest about the lies we tell ourselves in motherhood and how they impact our faith, our families, and our ability to move forward in what God is calling us to do. We talk about perfectionism and its conne...

From changing routines and seasons to emotional maturity, identity, and obedience, this conversation invites moms to reflect on where they may be holding on to an older version of themselves. Using...

When God Is Stretching You But You Don't Know Why 21.01.2026

Have you ever felt like you are doing everything right as a mom but there is still a heaviness? A quiet pull that something needs to change? In this episode of Activate Your Destiny I talk about the kind of spiritual stretching that happens when God is calling you to show up differently. Not anxiety. Not burnout. Just a sense that you cannot keep operating the same way and expect different results...
