In 2024, despite doing everything “right” when it came to her health and wellness, Victoria suffered a sudden cardiac arrest that completely changed the course of her life. The experience challenged everything she believed about certainty and control, ultimately teaching her that true peace comes from embracing what we can—and cannot—control.

Together, Keni and Victoria discuss surviving a life-threatening medical emergency, trusting your intuition, setting healthy boundaries, overcoming fear, and why so many women lose themselves while trying to care for everyone else.

They explore how letting go of control can strengthen not only our relationship with ourselves, but also with our children. Victoria also shares how surviving cardiac arrest transformed her mission, inspiring her to help women move from self-abandonment to self-leadership and live with greater confidence, clarity, and purpose.

Born and raised in North and South Carolina and now based in Nashville, Tennessee, Isabella grew up surrounded by music. Coming from a musical family, she developed a love for storytelling at an early age and began writing songs as a teenager. Drawing inspiration from country legends like Johnny Cash, Merle Haggard, and Waylon Jennings, she created a distinctive country-rock sound that blends heartfelt lyrics with powerful vocals and modern production. At just 19 years old, while actively touring and building momentum in her music career, Isabella’s life changed dramatically. What initially appeared to be severe migraines turned into a devastating medical crisis. After months of searching for answers and being repeatedly dismissed by medical professionals, doctors discovered she was suffering from a rare cerebrospinal fluid leak that caused her brain to sag and compress critical nerves. Over the following months, Isabella endured numerous procedures and treatments at some of the nation’s leading medical institutions. Despite the setbacks, she remained determined to find healing and continue pursuing her dreams. Everything changed when a specialized neurosurgeon successfully repaired the leak through a high-risk surgery.

After his family was forced to leave Palestine when he was just six days old, Mohamed spent his childhood moving between countries before eventually arriving in the United States as a teenager. Entering high school without speaking English, he faced the challenge of adapting to a completely new culture, language, and way of life. Those early experiences taught him a lesson that would shape the rest of his journey: resilience is often built not because we choose it, but because life leaves us no other option. In this candid conversation, Mohamed reflects on the defining moments that shaped his life and career—from building some of the world’s most recognized luxury hotels, commercial developments, and residential projects to navigating devastating setbacks that forced him to start over more than once. He shares how losing everything led him to reinvent himself, pivoting into stocks and technology before ultimately returning to real estate with a renewed perspective on success, purpose, and perseverance. One of the most moving moments of the episode centers around Mohamed’s mother. He speaks openly about the values she instilled in him, the love and compassion she taught him to show others, and the regret he carries from not being able to fulfill her wish to be buried in Palestine. In a touching moment, Mohamed speaks directly to her memory with words that reveal the depth of his love, gratitude, and respect. This conversation goes far beyond architecture and business. It is a story of displacement, adaptation, perseverance, and the strength to keep moving forward through life’s greatest challenges. From leaving Palestine as an infant to building a global legacy, Mohamed’s journey is a testament to the power of resilience, reinvention, and the belief that every setback can become the foundation for a new beginning. ⭐ Loved This Episode?If this conversation moved you, challenged you, or gave you a new perspective:• Tap Follow or Subscribe so you never miss an episode• Leave a 5-star review — it helps this show reach more women who need these conversations• Share this episode with someone who needs permission to keep standing• Follow @KeniSilva_ and @InHeelswithKeniSilva on Instagram• Watch video clips and full episodes on @InHeelswithKeniSilva, Youtube, McCordlistTV, Roku • Learn more about Divorce As An Opportunity and Keni’s work at Kenisilva.com

At just 13 years old, Dr. Khanh escaped Vietnam by boat with her 15-year-old sister in search of freedom and hope for a better future.

But behind the scenes, she was facing a health battle that doctors struggled to diagnose for nearly eight years. After years of worsening symptoms and unanswered questions, Rachel and her husband finally discovered the cause: a life-threatening mitral valve condition that required open-heart surgery. Just months earlier, she had appeared in Times Square and landed a major television opportunity — making the sudden shift from public success to a fight for survival even more surreal. Rachel opens up about the emotional journey leading up to surgery, the supernatural peace she says came through her faith, and the perspective that emerged on the other side of the storm. Now a survivor, mother, and media leader, Rachel reflects on how the experience reshaped her priorities — shifting her focus toward intentional motherhood, building a meaningful legacy, and using her platform to encourage others navigating uncertainty and adversity. This conversation is a reminder that sometimes life’s greatest trials become the turning point toward deeper purpose, stronger faith, and a renewed commitment to what truly matters. ⭐ Loved This Episode?If this conversation moved you, challenged you, or gave you a new perspective:• Tap Follow or Subscribe so you never miss an episode• Leave a 5-star review — it helps this show reach more women who need these conversations• Share this episode with someone who needs permission to keep standing• Follow @KeniSilva_ and @InHeelswithKeniSilva on Instagram• Watch video clips and full episodes on @InHeelswithKeniSilva, Youtube, McCordlistTV, Roku • Learn more about Divorce As An Opportunity and Keni’s work at Kenisilva.com

What if the biggest obstacle in your life isn’t your circumstances — but the drama you allow to live in your mind? In this episode of In Heels with Keni Silva, host Keni Silva sits down with Lisa Stuart, creator of The Drama Diet, to explore how emotional patterns and internal narratives can quietly shape the way we experience life, relationships, and personal growth.

What happens when the pursuit of beauty quietly turns into a long and confusing health battle? In this episode of In Heels with Keni Silva, host Keni Silva sits down with Dr. Kayte Susse to explore the complex and often overlooked realities of women’s health. After undergoing cosmetic breast implant surgery in her twenties, Dr. Kayte began experiencing a cascade of unexplained symptoms that left her searching for answers. What followed was a years-long journey through chronic illness that ultimately led her to explore integrative medicine, functional health, toxicology, regenerative therapies, and longevity science. Instead of allowing her experience to define her limitations, Dr. Kayte transformed her struggle into purpose — dedicating her work to helping women understand the deeper connections between toxins, hormones, immune health, and overall well-being. Together, Keni and Dr. Kayte discuss breast implant illness, silicone exposure, and why women’s health concerns are often dismissed or misunderstood within traditional medical systems. Dr. Kayte also shares the inspiration behind her Silicone Support Formula, developed to support detoxification and recovery for women navigating implant-related health challenges. The conversation also introduces Biohack Your Beauty, a philosophy that reframes beauty as a reflection of internal health — from cellular function and hormone balance to nervous system regulation and longevity.

Why do so many of us find ourselves repeating the same emotional patterns in relationships and life? In this episode of In Heels with Keni Silva, host Keni Silva sits down with psychotherapist and spiritual healer Dr. Nicki Monti to explore what it truly means to get unstuck — emotionally, mentally, and relationally.

What happens when you stop following the script others expect you to live — and start trusting your own intuition instead? In this episode of In Heels with Keni Silva, host Keni Silva sits down with actress and producer Caylee Cowan for an honest conversation about choosing creativity, intuition, and personal truth over conventional expectations. Before pursuing acting, Caylee was on a path toward medicine, even shadowing physicians at the Mayo Clinic.

She also shares how stepping into producing has become a natural extension of her creative voice — and why she is passionate about supporting more authentic and complex female storytelling in film. This conversation is a powerful reminder that success doesn’t come from following someone else’s script — it comes from trusting yourself enough to write your own. ⭐ Loved This Episode?If this conversation moved you, challenged you, or gave you a new perspective:• Tap Follow or Subscribe so you never miss an episode• Leave a 5-star review — it helps this show reach more women who need these conversations• Share this episode with someone who needs permission to keep standing• Follow @KeniSilva_ and @InHeelswithKeniSilva on Instagram• Watch video clips and full episodes on @InHeelswithKeniSilva, Youtube, McCordlistTV, Roku • Learn more about Divorce As An Opportunity and Keni’s work at Kenisilva.com

“This is surreal… that’s my mom’s name. This is literally my mom’s manifestation coming true.” When singer-songwriter Alexis Silva walked into the studio and saw her mother’s name on the set of In Heels with Keni Silva, the moment stopped her in her tracks. In this deeply personal episode, host Keni Silva sits down with a very special guest — her daughter. At just fourteen years old, Alexis was diagnosed with a life-threatening adrenal tumor wrapped around her vena cava, leading to a dangerous seven-hour surgery and months of uncertainty. Instead of allowing the experience to define her trauma, she turned survival into purpose. Through music, Alexis found her voice, creating her debut album 555, inspired by the signs she believes surrounded her healing and the memory of her grandmother. During the conversation, Alexis shares another moment that captures their relationship perfectly: “There’s nothing impossible for my mom.” Now stepping into a new era of what she calls “fun country girl pop,” Alexis is using her voice, her music, and her nonprofit work to inspire other young people facing challenges. This episode is a powerful story of resilience, faith, and the unbreakable bond between a mother and daughter who continue to inspire each other. ⭐ Loved This Episode?If this conversation moved you, challenged you, or gave you a new perspective:• Tap Follow or Subscribe so you never miss an episode• Leave a 5-star review — it helps this show reach more women who need these conversations• Share this episode with someone who needs permission to keep standing• Follow @KeniSilva_ and @InHeelswithKeniSilva on Instagram• Watch video clips and full episodes on @InHeelswithKeniSilva, Youtube, McCordlistTV, Roku • Learn more about Divorce As An Opportunity and Keni’s work at Kenisilva.com
