    33: And it is that Deep with Nakeia Homer

    Asking Nakeia to be on the podcast felt like a leap of faith. Having her agree was pure magic. She took a chance on our small podcast and I will continue to be fed by her wisdom, her grace and her presence for the rest of my days. Starting at a young age, Nakeia was presented with choices as to how she wanted to live her life. Nakeia chose to move beyond her experiences and take that knowledge, take those lessons and the hardships and turn it into a roadmap for many women to follow. When I think of Nakeia, I think of two words, generous and brave. Nakeia knows who she is through and through and takes time out of her beautiful journey to sit down and reflect with us. We are forever thankful and a forever fan of this powerful and insightful woman.Find Nakeia Homer: @nakeiahomer- Social MediaI Hope This Helps, The Podcast- PodcastRead her books- Books Follow Lexi on Instagram at @bl.ack.magic.wo.man and @LightAndSableHealing.

    31: “I Want It, I Got It” with Jalisa Smith

    Jalisa shines brightly, speaks with clear passion and is a deeply profound and sincere human. I first came across her sharing her wisdom on IG and realizing very quickly that I needed to know this person. Immediately from our first touch point, it felt like kindred spirits. It was like talking to a friend where you pick up right where you left off even though we had only just met. I admire Jalisa’s honesty and willingness to go to the deep end and return with not only more strength, but the generosity to share what she learned down there. We are lucky to exist alongside a woman who alchemizes with such beauty. Everyone deserves a Jalisa in their life. Jalisa not only describes herself as, “helping women to reclaim their power and lead with unapologetic confidence”, but embodies this mission with all her being.✨Find Jalisa: @femininely_divine- Social Media@FemininelyDivine- Substack@femininelydivine- Youtube ✨ Follow Lexi on Instagram at @bl.ack.magic.wo.man and @LightAndSableHealing.✨ Book or learn Reiki with Lexi here.💜 Take What You Need is a Bad Cat production.
