What does it really mean to have a good work ethic?

In this refreshingly honest episode, I sit with Alexein (First of His Name), to unpack the silent hustle, the discipline behind the scenes, and the mindset it takes to show up for your craft, your calling - and even your commute — consistently.

We talk about:

• Why “just being motivated” isn’t enough

• Learning to respect your own process

• Navigating burnout, guilt, and rest

• How a strong work ethic isn’t loud — it’s quietly consistent

Whether you're juggling gigs, stuck in the 9–5 cycle, freelancing your way to freedom, or trying to stay accountable to your goals — this one’s going to hit home.

So tell me...
What does “hard work” mean to you these days?

After months of silence, I’m back behind the mic — a little nervous, a little rusty, but here all the same.

In this solo episode, I reflect on what it means to begin again… especially when fear, doubt, and perfectionism have been in the way. I share my own struggle to return to podcasting, to start the things I’ve been sitting on, and to trust that messy first steps are still steps.

If you’ve been stuck, scared, or second-guessing your next move, this episode is your nudge. Start again — even if your voice shakes. I did.

Controversy has never been louder.

On this episode, the.introverted_she and Tere Joe are joined by the first guest of the season, Oreva, as they answer some really tough questions on the topic of Women, Money & Men:

Should a man still be the sole provider in 2025? How important is it for a woman to have her own money?

You can imagine the chaos already.
