I’m Shayla — and this podcast isn’t a soft reintroduction anymore, it’s me walking boldly into the woman I’m becoming.  This is where I unpack what it really looks like to figure out life as a 30‑year‑old woman — my tastes, my boundaries, my walk with God, my evolution, and the glow up that comes with choosing myself on purpose. It’s where I turn my healing into art, my lessons into laughter, and my becoming into something honest, intentional, and beautifully mine.Each episode blends raw soulful storytelling, spiritual grounding, aesthetic strategy, and emotional truth. I talk God, growth, glow‑ups, crash outs, clarity, healing from trauma, boundaries, and the wild, gorgeous reality of becoming a woman who finally knows her voice — and uses it.No filters. No fluff. Just 100% real! If you’re rebuilding your life with intention, alignment, and a whole lot of audacity, welcome home — this is your landing space.

    Season 3 Finale!

    Episode 31 is finally here and my heart is overflowing. The season finale of season 3. AHHHH. What a beautiful journey this has been. Since February second, when this season began, I have grown in ways I could not have imagined. I have stretched, healed, surrendered, and stepped deeper into who God is calling me to be. Every lesson, every shift, every moment of clarity is because of Him. I am sitting in pure gratitude as I reflect on how far I have come and how faithfully He has guided me. As I move into sabbatical, I am thankful that this is where I landed. I pray that something shared across these thirty one episodes has reached you in the way you needed. That you learned something new about yourself, expanded your thinking, softened your heart, or found a little more courage to grow. My intention has always been to share what I know and what I have been taught so that someone else can rise a little higher. I hope you feel inspired to do the same. We really do have to be the change we want to see in the world. It may sound cliché, but it is real. It is on you and me to show up with love, integrity, compassion, and intention. I am committed to offering what I can, being who I am called to be, and doing my part to make this world better. The best is still unfolding, and I am so grateful for you on the other side of this audio. Thank you for rocking with me, growing with me, and choosing to be here throughout this journey. See you for season four in May. Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you declares the Lord plans to prosper you and not to harm you plans to give you hope and a future.

    Grandma Said What You Needed To Hear

    We have a very special guest on today’s episode and she is coming in hot with wisdom, love, and that prophetic grandma anointing. I’m sharing a piece of a conversation my grandma and I had the other day, and I want you to listen as if she is speaking directly to you. Let her words pour into you the way they poured into me. Sometimes all we need is a reminder from someone who has lived, prayed, endured, and believed their way through life. A reminder that steadies you. A reminder that pushes you forward. A reminder that you are held. In times like these, in a world like this, encouragement is not optional. It is necessary. So check on your people. Love on your people. Remind them they are not alone. And hear me clearly: you are not alone either. Faith and belief will carry you farther than fear ever could. Trust what God is doing. Trust what is unfolding. Trust that every word spoken over your life is already in motion. Trust and believe, and so it is.

    The Week Everything Changed

    It’s 12am and your girl is back, fresh off a six hour nap on the couch like life didn’t just try to spin me around again. Stillness really does save me every time. I took an impromptu pause, but I’m here now, grounded, grateful, and ready to close this season out strong. This episode is a real time recap of my last week: filing for disability, having my role eliminated after five years, and navigating what it feels like to be without a job for the first time in my adult life. I’m talking about shifting the energy in my space, redecorating my living room, keeping my body moving, and choosing faith over fear even when the plot twists hit back to back. And listen, God showed up and showed out for me, and by faith He’ll do it again. This season might’ve shaken me, but it didn’t break me. Let’s get into it.

    Only Believe: Holy Week

    This week felt like a Holy Week love letter straight from God to me. I’m recapping all the ways He reminded me — loudly, softly, unexpectedly — that He sent Jesus to die just for me. From the little moments to the big ones, His fingerprints were all over my days. Sunday’s message, “Only Believe,” hit me right in my heart and spirit. It was one of those sermons where you feel like God pulled up a chair, looked you in your eyes, and said, “Daughter, this one’s for you.” And honestly, it was. I’m sharing everything from taking Easter bunny pics with Asia and Fay, to the way God answered prayers I whispered months ago — giving me the space, the freedom, and the grace to heal in real time. Hosting on Easter Sunday felt like another reminder that He restores what felt broken. And then there were the unexpected blessings — like Friday night out, getting to see Lo, and somehow ending up watching 1/2 of Les Twins dance at a battle… after forgetting my wallet at home. Only God could turn my forgetful moment into a whole testimony and a show. Saturday was a sweet reset with my bestie, the kind of day that fills you back up without you even realizing how empty you were. Holy Week showed out. God showed out. And I’m just grateful to be living in the overflow of His love, His reminders, and His intentionality. Tune in — this one’s for the heart, the faith, and the journey.

    What March Planted, April Will Bloom

    March closed with softness, joy, and a whole lot of clarity. It reminded me how important it is to have fun, to lean into friendship, and to stay rooted in community. It also showed me just how far I’ve come in my healing — and that it’s still okay to have moments where I’m not okay. Healing isn’t a finish line; it’s a continuous, grace‑filled process, and I’m grateful for every step. And now… it’s spring. A season of blooming, blossoming, flourishing, and thriving. A season where everything that’s been growing beneath the surface finally starts to show. A season that mirrors exactly where I am — opening, softening, becoming again. I am strong. I am wise. I am intentional. I am a great person and an anchor. I am 1 of 1 — exactly who God says I am. Restoration is already in motion, and I can feel my breakthrough and the answers to my prayers getting closer. Just like the flowers, I’m stepping into a new month ready to rise, ready to expand, ready to receive. So goodbye March, and hello April. This month is going to be a God did month, and I’m walking into it with expectancy, gratitude, and faith.

    A Weekend of Little Joys

    This weekend was full of the softest self‑care moments, the kind that remind you you’re held, loved, and allowed to breathe. From a dreamy date‑night experience with live music and candlelight, to an unexpected Zumba class that lifted my whole spirit, to lounging by the pool like the sun was personally checking in on me. South Carolina basketball had me locked in, so I’m giving you my March Madness predictions and sharing CBA updates because we officially have a season. I spent time with Taylor, soaked up church, and closed the weekend with some much‑needed relaxation with Fay. And because I’m taking a break from social media, this episode feels even more like a heart‑to‑heart,  just me sharing life as it’s happening, without the noise. Church… whew. The message was all about grace — the grace of God — and I’m sitting in so much gratitude for His love. I’m thankful for this weekend, for the softness, for the reminders, and for the grace that carries me.

    Pressie Forever & 2,023 downloads!

    The signs, the words, the messages, the synchronicities have been at an all‑time high. Today marks 8 years since my brother passed away, which still feels absolutely insane to say out loud. And on this exact day, I realized I’ve officially surpassed 2,000 downloads on the pod. Two thousand downloads of This Is Where I Landed with Shayla. I am SOOOOO PROUD OF MYSELF. Eight years is a long time to miss someone. But today was a good day. From the moment I woke up, the energy felt different, lighter than it has in a long time, and for that, I’m thankful. All the work I’ve put in, the hours of therapy, prayer, grieving, mourning, have slowly transformed into peace and healing. It took so much intentionality to get here. THIS IS WHERE I LANDED!! So many hard days. And everything shifted when my therapist told me, “Grief never becomes easier, it just gets less intense.” Since then, I’ve been learning how to soften the intensity, and wow, I’m proud of myself for that. To realize on this day that I had 2,023 downloads, the year my dad passed, felt like a sign from both of them. A little whisper from the other side saying, “We’re with you. We see you. Everything is going to be just fine. Don’t worry.” “Fear not, for I am with you.” - God Send us Fan Mail This Is Where I Landed with Shayla I’m in my bold, soft, God‑led becoming era — and I hope this episode reminded you that you’re allowed to take up space too.
