Summary
I had the honor of interviewing Sarah Jakes Roberts while she was in town for her Power Moves book tour. Y'all it really felt like I was sitting down with a longtime girlfriend! We talked about her upbringing, family, shame, self worth and our toxic traits. I could not be more proud of the woman that Sarah is and how her ministry is changing lives everyday. Please make sure y'all go out and buy her book, Power Moves. It is now a New York Times Bestseller.

| 2:01.1 | The only thing worse than being powerless is falling for the illusion that power can be amassed by what you have instead of who you are willing to become. Yeah. When I read that I was like, that is so powerful because a lot of times we look around like, well, I don't have this, I don't have that, I don't have that, but not thinking, hey, it's really what I need to be to get where I'm trying to go. For sure. up with that because I know a lot of times people get caught up in the now and like look into where they want to go and like feel stuck. Yeah. You know, so that really spoke to me.

And I feel like that's where in my life right now. Like I reached another level and I'm like, oh gosh, now I'm having to learn everything all over again for this level. It's like trying to find new codes and how to, like a video game, like how do I get past this level? And I'm in that space right now. But that's so true. Yeah.
