Love, Lust, & Legacy: The Truth About Modern Men At 40 Ft. MoosieWins

Send us Fan Mail What happens when a man enter a new chapter of life - redefining love, evolving a an artist, leaving a legacy through fatherhood, and finding strength after loss? In this episode, I sit down with Moosie Win for a raw and honest conversation about growth, relationships, purpose, and transformation. At 40, he opens up about his perspective on dating and relationships, and what has changed, the importance of being with someone you can grow with, and how dating is different now that his son has left the nest and is in college. We also go behind the music and discuss his latest single, "Lust." He breaks down some of the lyrics of the song and the inspiration behind those lyrics, and I challenge him on the meaning behind some lyrics that stood out to me. We also discuss how his real life shows up in his music and how personal experiences shape his artistry. After 18 years as a Math teacher, he has pivoted in his career and has transitioned to being outside of the classroom while still in the Department of Education. Fatherhood is another major part of this conversation as he reflects on watching his son complete his first year as a Division 1 athlete. He shares the lessons he intentionally passed down, how he balanced discipline with support, and the moment every parent faces - knowing when to guide and when to let go. We close out the episode discussing grief, loss, and healing. Having experienced a profound loss, he shares how grief has changed his outlook on life, his relationships, and what truly matters. This episode is a reminder that growth doesn't stop at any age - sometimes you biggest transformation happens when you're willing to let go, evolve, and step into who you're becoming!

Why Flirting Is A Lost Art

Send us Fan Mail In this episode, I open up about the importance of traveling, the lost art of flirting, embracing a year of solitude, and the art of detachment. Whether it’s a solo adventure, a girls’ getaway, or a baecation, travel has a way of revealing who you are when you’re removed from your everyday routine. I also open up about my “solo year”—a season of solitude, self-discovery, and learning the difference between being alone and being lonely. We dive into the beauty of detachment, letting go of what no longer serves you, and accepting that what you want isn’t always what God wants for your life. If you’ve been struggling to release control, move on from a situation, trust God’s timing, or embrace a season of singleness, this episode is for you.

This Is What Autonomy Really Looks Like Ft. Oya Noire

Send us Fan Mail What does it really mean to have autonomy as a Black, queer artist in an industry that rewards conformity? This week, I’m joined by musician Oya Noire for a raw and honest conversation about building a creative life on your own terms—even when the system pushes you to perform, produce, and shrink yourself to fit in. We unpack the tension between identity, ambition, and survival, and what it takes to stay rooted in authenticity while navigating visibility, pressure, and growth. We talk about: The moment she realized her voice had power—and that music was her path How love, heartbreak, and real-life experiences shape her sound What performing at SXSW revealed about the industry Why she stepped away from music—and what that break taught her What creative autonomy actually looks like for her If you’ve ever felt torn between being fully yourself and “making it,” this conversation is for you.

What Does Luxury Really Mean? Ft. Simone Alexis

Send us Fan Mail This week I'm joined by fashion and luxury extraordinaire, Simone Alexis Webb, who has a way of romanticizing her life. But this conversation goes beyond designer labels and soft life aesthetics. We're talking luxury, dating, the importance of having hobbies, and the narratives women casually adopt without realizing the impact. We unpack what luxury truly means outside of the designer goods, traveling, and tangible things. Why must luxury look different for black women than it does for everyone else? We dive into the viral "I'm just a girl" plight - is it harmless humor, soft femininity, or a subtle regression for grown women? Are we reclaiming something...or shrinking ourselves? We also unpack the real difference between dating and courting (yes, there is one), and what each says about standards, intention, and effort in 2026. This episode is layered, and you already know we're not holding back!

Why Authenticity Makes People Uncomfortable Ft. Kenya aka Vain The Villain

Send us Fan Mail This week I'm joined by Kenya aka SheSoVain to discuss all things from the importance of being authentic and knowing yourself to holding men accountable, to motherhood, NYC nightlife, and so much more. We unpack who Kenya is, how she views herself, and what it takes for her to give her time to a man. While many may say that her expectations are unrealistic, she maintains her standards for herself by setting high standards for the men who nay want to date her, thus weeding out the bare minimum doers! We speak about codes she teaches her daughters so that they don't get caught up in this world, in addition to why she went back to bartending at Starlets New York.
