Rest Is Required: I’m Back for Season 2
Hello, hello, hello! Auntie Marva Jean is back for Season 2 — and this time, I'm sharing my own story about burnout, rest, and faith.
After taking a break from social media, I had to slow down, make room for rest, and get honest about what deserves my time and energy. This episode is for the Black woman who is tired of being tired: Rest is not a reward. It's required.
In this Christian podcast premiere, I'm talking about burnout, faith, family, and choosing the work that truly matters. You can take a break, listen for God's direction, and begin again.
Come listen, and share this with a woman who might need that reminder today. 💛🌼

Dear Black Woman, God Said: Back to Life — Dr. Mia Frails on Healing, Surrender & Choosing Herself
EPISODE TITLE
Dear Black Woman, God Said: Coming Back to Life — Dr. Mia Frails on Healing, Surrender & Choosing Herself
ANCHOR SCRIPTURE
“Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing!”
— Isaiah 43:18–19
EPISODE DESCRIPTION
What happens when the woman who has spent years helping other people heal realizes that she needs healing too?
In this deeply personal conversation, Dr. Mia Frails joins Dr. Marva Tutt to talk about divorce, motherhood, identity, surrender, peace, and the journey of finding herself again.
After stepping away from her chiropractic career to become a full-time wife and mother, Mia found herself asking a life-changing question: Who am I without the titles?
She shares how she learned to stop confusing peace with silence, stopped betraying herself to keep other people comfortable, and began making decisions based on what she wanted for her life.
And when life became uncertain, Mia developed a simple practice: getting up each morning and asking God, “What do you want me to do next?”
This conversation is for the Black woman who has been strong for everybody else, who has stayed because leaving felt uncertain, or who is discovering that healing doesn't always mean becoming the woman she used to be.
Sometimes coming back to life means meeting the woman God is creating now.
In this episode:
• Finding yourself after losing your identity in roles and relationships
• Surrendering what you cannot fix
• Learning that peace does not require silence
• Motherhood and allowing your children to become themselves
• Releasing the pressure to be the “strong Black woman”
• Rest without guilt
• Choosing yourself without betraying your faith
• Learning to dream again
• What it really means to come Back to Life
