Podcast Overview

Real Talk: Unfiltered What does “resilience” really mean? For years, I thought it meant “pushing through.” Then a traumatic brain injury (TBI) shattered my old self and taught me that true strength is found in grace, not grit. This is my story of: Losing my voice literally: I called Portobello ("mushrooms-goblin-pasta”). Almost missing my son’s birthday… and the hug that saved me. Rebelling against doctors who said I’d “never recover past 70%.” Flying to India broken and finding peace in breath-work, yoga, and silence. Learning what healing really means

We Need to Talk "Goes Dutch" - My Story & That of MONQ: Volume One - The Awakening of his Manifestation

We Need to Talk "Goes Dutch" - Episode with DJ & Producer MONQ This is the conversation I've been wanting to have. MONQ is a DJ & producer who became one of the fastest growing artists in the Netherlands in 2024, hitting Spotify charts with "Vannacht slaap je bij mij" and "Fallin in Love." His track "Loco" entered the Latin Spotify charts, marking his signature summer sound. But this episode isn't about chart positions.It's about what happened when MONQ, is videographer, and I traveled to Spain with nothing but a vision, meeting two artists we'd never met before (one from Cuba, one from Spain) to shoot two music videos for two hit songs. No safety net. Just trust in the universe and the process. In this episode, we talk about:<ul><li>What happens when you show up with nothing but belief</li><li>How abundance flows when you give without expecting</li><li>The power of positive energy and positive people</li><li>Books and life lessons that shaped our paths</li><li>Strengthening real friendship in just a few days</li><li>Why hard work + universal timing = magic</li><li>Trusting the process when nothing is guaranteed</li></ul> MONQ has traveled the world with Afrobros and worked with Zion, Ape Drums, Mariah Angeliq, and more. But now he's following his own path, guided by trust, the universe, and the people who show up when it matters. This is his FIRST podcast ever. Raw, honest, vulnerable. We talk about success, struggle, Spain, meditation on beaches, and what really matters when the cameras stop rolling. This is "We Need to Talk" going Dutch for the first time.Episode Topics:<ul><li>Artist life and mental health</li><li>Trust and abundance mindset</li><li>Spain adventures and creative collaboration</li><li>Latin music inspiration</li><li>Friendship and positive energy</li><li>Life lessons and personal growth</li></ul> More to come in 2026 CONNECT WITH MONQ: Youtube: @heyMoNQTikTok: @heymonq Spotify: MONQ This episode is about trust, abundance, positive energy, and what happens when you show up with nothing but belief in the universe and the people around you.
