E008 - From Performance to Purpose - Healing, Art & Womb Energy with Alicia Jasmina

Podcast Title: Tha Motiv8tors Table Podcast Host: Dr. JayR McIntyre (Tha Hood Motiv8tor) Episode Title: E008 - From Performance to Purpose - Healing, Art & Womb Energy with Alicia Jasmina Summary: In this powerful and deeply intentional episode of Tha Motiv8tor’s Table, Dr. JayR McIntyre sits down with Alicia Jasmina — a gifted dancer, singer, and actress from Tampa, Florida — whose journey is rooted in creativity, healing, and self-discovery. Alicia opens up about her early beginnings as a childhood entertainer trained in traditional West African dance, and the realities of navigating the arts and entertainment scene in Tampa. She shares how stepping away into the corporate world helped her recognize what was missing — authenticity, alignment, and healing — and ultimately led her back to her true calling. This conversation goes far beyond performance. Alicia speaks candidly about returning to her authentic self after burnout and misalignment, using art, movement, and energy as tools for healing, her Afro dance programs and cultural expression, empowering women through womb healing, self-love, and embodied confidence, and standing firm in purpose in a world driven by image and superficial validation. This episode is a reminder that your gift doesn’t need permission, and healing is not weakness — it’s power. Main Topics: • Returning to authenticity after corporate misalignment • Art, dance, and music as tools for healing and trauma release • Channeling creativity as a vessel for source energy • Womb healing and feminine energy work for women • Breaking generational trauma stored in the body • Frequency, presence, and letting energy introduce you • Building a purpose-led creative career on your own terms Intriguing Quotes: “I rather rough it on my way to being exactly where I truly want to be instead of doing what everybody else tells me to do.” “Energy isn’t destroyed, it’s only transferred.” “The things that people laugh at you for now are the very same things they’ll be calling you iconic for later.” “I’m here to be a disruptor.
