Description

In this week’s Pep Talk Wednesday, Tyra gets honest about what it meant to go back home for the first time in a long time — not for a quick visit, but for an extended stay that her spirit didn’t even know it was craving.

This episode explores the quiet magic of slowing down, stepping away from the noise, and letting your roots remind you who you are. From porch conversations and grocery store rides with her momma to the familiar sound of cicadas and family showing up unannounced (like always!), Tyra reflects on how going home helped her breathe again, reconnect with her identity, and remember the grounded version of herself she hadn’t visited in a while.


Pep Talk Challenge: 

Do one thing this week that reconnects you with your roots.
