I Had to Tell My Own Voice to Shut Up…Before I Could Become Her

The hardest voice she had to silence…was her own. Before she could grow into the woman she’s becoming, she had to unlearn fear, doubt, and everything she believed about herself. Tia sits down with Keelay, a mom, wife, speaker and author who opens up about growing up in a strict household, navigating motherhood, and discovering her purpose through life’s unexpected turns. From saying she never wanted kids…to becoming a mother who found her strength, confidence, and calling through motherhood, this episode is real, reflective, and deeply relatable.
