06/14/23 • 50 min

Have you experienced a time in which almost everything seemed to be falling apart and you had no clue on how to get things back on track? Could it be that no matter how much progress you attempted to make, situations brought loss, confusion, or doubt? Well, my guest this week certainly went through such a period of multiple events in her life that did not only bring her to a breaking point but launched her into a journey of rediscovery, renewal, and hope in the most unexpected of circumstances.
Join me for this inspiring episode of resilience, gratitude, and unwavering belief as I interview New Orleans based innovator, creator, and songwriter Arifay "Faystizzo/Faystarr" Joyner who, instead of falling victim to her pain and loss, she chose to grow, shift, change, and progress to a brighter tomorrow.
Episode 32's Affirmation:
My life is constantly being made new.
