Beautiful podcast from a beautiful person

As a pageant fan and contestant I’ve followed Deshauna since she won Miss USA. But WOW the deep dive, obstacles, and lessons she learned truly touched me. As someone who struggles with seeking validation I appreciate her vulnerability and openness to her year. Thank you for being my inspiration

What you need in a podcast

I am someone who loves to learn by listening to others and Deshauna doesn’t fail in making you want to listen like your life depends on it! Every episode truly does share sweet lessons that allow you to reevaluate your life in the past, present, and future. My personal favorite episodes so far is Eviction to Victory (OOF that one really got me) and the one where bae joined to discuss their love journey (Marvin did not play dropping 💎). So far, this podcast has taught me that being intentional where I can be and letting life play out and is the fun and brave thing to do. Thank you for all the gems Dr. Barber! You are changing the game 🙌🏾
