    Almost Married: The Warning Signs (Guest: Niyah Gonzalez)

    In this must-hear episode of Dear Future Wifey, Laterras R. Whitfield sits down with Niya Gonzales, a 31-year-old influencer who recently went viral after making the bold decision to call off her very public engagement.   What sparked widespread conversation—and mixed reactions online—was Niya’s honesty: there was no infidelity, no abuse, no scandal. She simply changed her mind.   In this transparent and emotionally grounded conversation, Niya shares what led to that decision, the internal wrestle of listening to her intuition, and the pressure of making a life-altering choice under the scrutiny of social media. Together, Laterras and Niya unpack the difference between doing what looks right and doing what is right, especially when it comes to marriage.   This episode explores:   The courage it takes to choose clarity over comfort   Why “nothing went wrong” can still be a valid reason to walk away   The emotional toll of public opinion on private decisions   Discernment, self-trust, and honoring your inner voice   Redefining failure, faith, and freedom in relationships   Whether you agreed with her decision or questioned it, this conversation invites you to look deeper—beyond the headlines—and wrestle with what it truly means to choose yourself before saying “I do.”   🎧 This episode is honest, thought-provoking, and necessary.   CONNECT WITH OUR GUEST https://www.instagram.com/niyah.gonzalez   CONNECT WITH OUR HOSTS https://www.instagram.com/laterrasrwhitfield https://www.instagram.com/ashleyrwhitfield   ORDER LATERRAS R.

    Unshakable Faith (Guest: Cora Jakes)

    In this deeply vulnerable episode of Dear Future Wifey, Laterras Whitfield sits down with Cora Jakes for one of her most transparent conversations to date. Cora courageously opens up about her decision to speak publicly about her divorce and the abuse her daughter survived, sharing how her family is walking through healing, restoration, and faith in the aftermath. With grace and honesty, she discusses the cost of silence, the power of truth, and what healing looks like when the wounds are personal and public. The conversation also explores what it was like growing up as Bishop T.D. Jakes’ daughter, including the internal struggle of losing her own sense of identity as her father’s name became globally recognized. Cora reflects on carrying expectations, navigating visibility, and finding her voice beyond the weight of a famous last name. Additionally, she shares about her role as the family intercessor—the unseen spiritual labor, the emotional weight it carries, and how prayer became both her refuge and responsibility. This episode is raw, redemptive, and necessary—a powerful reminder that healing is not linear, faith doesn’t eliminate pain, and courage sometimes looks like telling the truth out loud. 📸 CONNECT WITH OUR GUEST https://www.instagram.com/officialcallmecora/ CONNECT WITH OUR HOSTShttps://www.instagram.com/laterrasrwhitfieldhttps://www.instagram.com/ashleyrwhitfield ORDER LATERRAS R.
