Ever feel torn between the responsibilities you have to carry and the dream you can't stop thinking about?

In this episode, I sit down with Tracy Powell, entrepreneur and Founder of The House of IsA, a luxury women's and men's wear brand. Tracy walks us through her leap from a successful real estate career into fashion: the doubt, the tough money conversations with her husband, the sacrifices (including downsizing), and the faith that kept her moving.

In this conversation, we talk about:

✔ Recognizing the signs that it's time for a change

✔ Why the dream you've dismissed as a "hobby" may be pointing to your purpose

✔ What it really took to leave a stable career and downsize for a bigger calling

✔ Taking small, practical first steps toward what you want

✔ Why a strong support system matters

Hey! I'd love to hear your thoughts, send me a voice note.

What happens when the voice you ignored for years finally gets loud enough to change your life?

Sheryl (Sherrie) Brown spent 34 years in education — teacher, assistant principal, principal — showing up for kids across Northwest Ohio. In this episode, she opens up about the moment she stepped away from that career, the courage it took to speak up when it mattered most, and how journaling and silence helped her rediscover her own voice after years of always being "on."

That same journey is now fueling her book, "Weeds to Wishes" — proof that the hardest seasons can grow into something beautiful.

If fear, people-pleasing, or "it's too late" has been holding you back, this conversation will meet you right where you are. Sherri's story is a reminder: your voice still matters, and the next small step might be the one that changes everything.

Hanging onto the Old You in a New Season | Coach Leslie Tillman on faith, freedom, and finally stepping forward What happens when your life has already changed, but your identity is still stuck in the old version of you? Coach Leslie Tillman shares the turning point that moved her from fear, doubt, and low self-esteem into a season of bold faith, clarity, and purpose. Tonisha Johnson leads a powerful conversation about the hidden cost of staying attached to outdated habits, old environments, and labels that no longer fit. Leslie opens up about the moment she knew “enough was enough,” why she insisted on being called Coach Leslie Tillman, and how getting out of the wrong spaces changed everything. You’ll hear: Why being “unstoppable” is less about hype and more about faith that keeps moving; How desperation for change can become the beginning of real transformation; Why leaving an old job or old identity isn’t just physical, it’s mental, emotional, and spiritual; Why environments, friendships, and even the way you introduce yourself can keep you stuck. Leslie also breaks down the deeper meaning behind The WellRest Spot in Columbus, Ohio, including its connection to the woman at the well and the power of creating a space where people can rest, receive hope, and hear God clearly. It’s a conversation about surrender, humility, and the freedom that comes when you stop competing, stop performing, and start walking in what you were actually called to do. If you’ve been feeling the pull toward something more, this episode is for you. Perfect for anyone standing at the edge of a pivot, wondering whether it’s time to let go of the old and step fully into the new.
