Life isn’t always black and white...and neither is faith.
Welcome to Living in the Gray with PK — a soulful, honest podcast where grace meets real life.
Hosted by Pastor Krys, a digital pastor, entrepreneur, and storyteller...this show is for everyday people navigating the tension between who they’ve been and who they’re becoming. Here, we wrestle with what it means to live faithfully in a world that’s not always cleancut or certain. You will find real conversations for real people walking through real-life gray areas.
Together, let's learn to live in the gray! New episodes weekly. 🩶
When Saying Yes Too Much Means Saying No to Yourself: Breaking Free From People-Pleasing and Self-Abandonment
In this episode of Living in the Gray with PK, we’re pulling back the curtain on the subtle but dangerous cycle of people pleasing and how it often leads to self-abandonment.
PK unpacks how this behavior is rooted in the fear of rejection, shares personal stories of navigating this tension as a pastor and Black woman, and invites you to take steps toward living more holistically — where your yes aligns with your values and your no doesn’t come with guilt.
This conversation is for the person who’s done disappearing to make others comfortable. It’s for the one learning that peace is not the absence of conflict, but the presence of self. If you’ve ever struggled to choose yourself without apology, this episode is your reminder: your wholeness is holy.

Learning to Live in the Gray
🎙️ Have you ever felt like you’re standing in the hallway of life between two doors—one God closed, and one He hasn’t opened yet? That’s the gray.
It’s the space where faith is tested, identity is stretched, and clarity hasn’t quite caught up with your calling but you still know you’re called to and for something. Welcome to "Living in the Gray" the podcast for those learning to trust God in the tension of life.
