From DM’ing a creator I admired, to collaborating for six months, to standing on set with people like Pretty V, DC Young Fly, and Saraya, I talk about trusting your creativity, betting on yourself, and letting joy lead instead of pressure.</p><p>Then I sit down with&nbsp;<strong>Durelle and Samantha Bailey</strong>, a married couple whose story stopped me in my tracks. We unpack childhood trauma, abuse, anxiety, and trust — from Durelle surviving homelessness, family betrayal, and being institutionalized as a teenager, to Samantha growing up in a loving home while carrying silent stress and responsibility. Together, we talk about how two people from completely different backgrounds learned to communicate, heal, trust, and build a Christ-centered marriage rooted in peace instead of chaos. This episode is raw, emotional, funny, and deeply healing — especially if you’re navigating relationships, faith, or learning how to stay in your own lane.</p><p>Please leave a review , if this episode spoke to you!</p><p>For exclusive bonus content, behind-the-scenes vlogs, a place connect with the LTTA FAM plus more, join the LTTA app community at LTTA.app and unlock your invite today!</p><p>Audio Fam, since you listen to the audio every Monday, don’t forget to go watch the YouTube on Tuesday!
