What is Torch Podcast? Let me shed some light before the 2/12 launch.

Torch Podcast is about leadership. Wait. I’m not just talking about work “stuff”. I’m talking about a deeper sense of leadership as in how you lead yourself. I believe that how you lead yourself is how you lead everything in your life, which goes on to affect the world around you and how you experience it.

It’s about leading a team, yourself, your family and community. Torch Podcast is about finding your strengths and moving past fears to conquer your dreams. It’s your resource to learn how to expand your potential, spark your inner drive, and find your voice from the professional and personal experiences of each interview guest.

Oh, and by the way, I’m Tiana and I’ve been a crappy leader. I’ve grown in many ways over the last 5 years allowing me to see that I was supposed to serve my team rather than have them serve me and my anxieties. More to come on this in future episodes.

This is a selfie I took with my first film camera on the night of my high school graduation. I love the torch!

A big turning points was my divorce 5 years ago because it was an opportunity to really look at myself and see what my poor unconscious actions were in the relationship. I was seriously shocked to have seen that the things I disliked in him where the things that were in me all along. Anxiety, negative views of the world… they were rooted in how I managed people at work and how I dealt with those closest to me. These were not all me; they were my fears. I was joyous and silly too, but this dark side was heavily unveiled in my marriage. 

No one sat me down to confront me about these things, they were things I had to painfully find, sit with, and get close to on my own. Ever since then I’ve been on a personal journey to uncover my pain that led me to being more of a mentor than that old crappy leader I was in the past. And guess what? Leading from love (with healthy boundaries, which I’m working on) feels better for everyone.

TMI? I’m not sure, but I want to paint a picture of my growth since it’s connected to Torch and what I want to offer you in upcoming episodes. I have a wide range of guests that will inspire you to notice where you can make micro improvements like I have and help you lead your own powerful life for yourself and those around you. Guests will range from business leaders, researchers, empowering authors, entrepreneurs, mentors, spiritual leaders, philosophy educators, addiction experts… and some fun surprises!

    I was searching for a female driven podcast that covers life tips and career lessons and heard about Torch. I’ve only heard a few episodes but already I feel it is relatable. I am constantly looking for ways to improve and live my best self for me, my family and community. I’m looking forward to more episodes and getting deeper into the juicy parts of life and love.
