So there I was, reading Ezekiel 14, shaking my head at how those people let idols take God’s place. "Couldn’t be me." (insert judgemental eye-roll)
Then it hit me… It is me.
No, I don’t have a golden calf in my living room (it wouldn’t match my décor), but I’ve let fear, success, and approval sit where only Jesus belongs. And I can imagine God whispering, “I see your heart. Will you give it back to Me?”
That’s why I started No Rival Thrones—for those of us who are tired of running, ready to surrender, and done pretending we’re in control.

What does it actually mean to date yourself?
Not the cute version. Not flowers, solo dinners, and pretending you never get lonely. I’m talking about the real journey of learning who you are, how to love yourself in action, and how God sees you.
In this episode, I’m talking from the middle of the journey, not the finish line. What happens when we stop waiting for someone else to choose us before we start living? Can we desire love without making another person responsible for our identity? And can we know God and ourselves deeply enough that someone else’s inability to love us well doesn’t determine our worth?
I’m still figuring it out too. So let’s talk about it.
Welcome back to No Rival Thrones. 🎙️

I Quit With Everything
I said I quit with nothing.
That wasn’t true.
I didn’t have a backup plan or guaranteed income. But I had boundaries. I had clarity. I had peace about leaving.
This episode is about what it feels like to walk away before the full blueprint is visible: the anxiety, the ego check, and realizing you didn’t leave empty.

Emotionally Leased
Speaking about obsession isn’t easy, because it doesn’t always look unhealthy at first. Sometimes it looks like love. Sometimes it looks like discipline. Sometimes it looks like survival.
In this episode, we talk honestly about obsession with people, habits, and feelings — and how it often grows out of unprocessed grief, fear, and unmet needs. Not the loud, obvious kind of obsession, but the quiet kind that slowly gains access and starts to rule.
Obsession isn’t always rebellion.
Sometimes it’s pain trying to stay protected.
This conversation isn’t about shame or self-correction. It’s about naming what’s been given too much authority, understanding what it has cost us, and gently returning the throne to where it belongs.
You don’t have to evict everything.
You just don’t have to keep renewing the lease.

Oil from Ashes
Cherelle Ward, Cheree Ready, and Lisha Salter join me in an honest, sit-with-it conversation about faith.
Real women talking about what surrender actually cost them — the fear, the loneliness, the breaking point, and the quiet decision to trust God when nothing felt certain. No preaching. No polished testimonies. Just the truth about knowing God, choosing differently, and discovering that He can still bring oil out of what burned.
If you’ve ever loved God and still lost something…
If you’re wondering whether surrender is worth the cost…
This one’s for you.

Dead Leaves
I’ve been deep in my plant mom bag lately, and somehow God decided to use soil, roots, and yellowing leaves to speak truths I’d been avoiding. You know how you see a leaf turning and say, “It’s fine, I’ll deal with it later,” hoping prayer and vibes will fix it? Yeah. Same.
Dead leaves don’t fall off on their own. They cling. They look harmless. But they quietly drain nutrients, block light, and stress the whole plant. And at some point, it became clear this wasn’t about plants at all.
This episode is about the things we keep because they were once alive, once useful, once blessed. The relationships, habits, and thought patterns we keep asking God to revive when He’s been asking us to release them. Pruning isn’t punishment. It’s protection. God doesn’t cut to hurt us. He cuts to preserve what’s meant to grow.
If you’ve been praying for growth while holding on to dead leaves, consider this your reminder. Dead leaves don’t belong on the throne.

The Weight of "SHOULD"
In this week’s episode of No Rival Thrones, I’m joined by my soul sisters as we unpack The Weight of Should. The expectations we carry—on ourselves, on others, and even on God—can feel crushing, but what happens when we lay them down? Together, we share honest stories of disappointment, freedom, and surrender, and talk about what it really means to release the throne of “should” and trust God’s perfect timing.

Get Defeat Off the Seat!
Episode 2: Defeat Is Not Your God
We’ve all faced moments where failure feels final—when the weight of disappointment sits heavy, and the voice of defeat is louder than hope. But what happens when those moments become more than just struggles? What if we start to build our identity around them? In this episode of No Rival Thrones, we tackle the subtle but dangerous idol of failure.
It’s easy to think of idols only as relationships, money, or fame, but Scripture reminds us that anything we elevate above God—even our past mistakes—can take a throne in our hearts. Many of us don’t realize it, but we’ve made defeat our god: rehearsing losses more than God’s promises, measuring our worth by what didn’t work out, or letting shame decide who we are.
Together, we’ll look at how the enemy uses defeat to keep us paralyzed, how God speaks truth into our darkest valleys, and how surrendering our failures to Him restores freedom. Anchored in Isaiah 41:8-10, this episode will remind you that God calls you chosen, not forsaken; strengthened, not abandoned.
If you’ve ever felt stuck in regret, defined by what went wrong, or convinced that your future is limited because of your past, this conversation is for you. You’ll leave with practical steps to shift your focus from the false throne of defeat to the true King who redeems, restores, and rebuilds.
Because in the Kingdom of God, failure doesn’t get the final word—Jesus does.
