After a summer pause, I'm back — and this isn't just a 'continuation', it's a LEVELING UP. The podcast has a new name, a new look, and an even deeper mission:Reclaiming Food, Freedom & The Last 10. For the past 10 years and 420+ episodes, I've been teaching you how to lose the weight you've been struggling with. And that's still true. But here's the thing—this work has always been about so much MORE. Because this isn't just about weight loss. It's about self-liberation.  It's about reclaiming your relationship with food—one filled with trust and peace.  It's about living in a body that feels like home (instead of constantly feeling at war with it). In this episode, I'm sharing why this shift matters—and why I know it's going to set you free. I'm also introducing you to the movement: #ThisIsMyFreedom. This isn't just a hashtag. It's a declaration. A way for us to claim our power in this area of our lives and celebrate our freedom—with food, in our bodies, and in our lives. Next week, I'll share where you can officially join the movement, take The Quiz, and sign up for my new LIVE workshop happening on October 21st. Here's what you can do right now: Go look at the new cover art. Screenshot it. Tag me on IG with the hashtag #ThisIsMyFreedom and tell me what freedom means to you. xo Brenda

In his message “Leveling Up from the Inside Out,” Pastor Derrick Barbee reminds us that true transformation begins within, showing us how Jesus called ordinary fishermen not to “do” first, but simply to “be” with Him. Just as the Smurfs' names reflected their true identity, Pastor Barbee explains that only God's call defines who we really are—not the labels others put on us. With honesty and encouragement, he teaches that God sees us right where we are, calls us into authentic relationship with Him, and patiently works with us as we stumble, return, and grow. Real change, he says, is a process that happens from the inside out—when we let go of old nets, embrace God's naming, and step into purpose that makes an eternal difference.

God is moving like never before. He is preparing us for advancement. He is teaching us - and although we don't understand all of the details yet, God is showing us the way as we take steps forward in faith. Our Father is calling us up the mountain. Each step moves us forward, and we are leveling up! We've asked for His glory, and He is answering our prayers. So many are awakening each day and together, we are advancing His Kingdom. We are stepping into His ever-increasing glory and restoration is coming! Miracles are coming! Blessings are coming! Praise the Lord...Amen!

In this episode, I share how I'm using my final year of cardiology fellowship—and my 32nd birthday reset—as a chance to level up. Not just by setting goals, but by reverse engineering the doctor, husband, and father I want to become a year from now. If you've ever felt stuck on autopilot or unsure of your next step, this episode will give you a simple framework for designing your future self and finishing strong.

In our opening chatter we talk about what's been happening since we last recorded. What's on Our Timeline? This week's timeline is courtesy of Morgan Sandiego on TikTok. And it features a woman that says if you are not already in a committed relationship with good communication, respect and boundaries before you start nursing school don't do it! Let's Talk Through It One of our male friends is working to better himself on his job but it requires studying and a test. Well it seems as if his girlfriend is sabotaging his dreams by doing things to keep him from studying for the test that could change his career and life. One of our Birmingham friends has been dating her man for 5 years. She was ready to break it off when he started talking about marriage. Recently she started to focus on her dream of passing the bar and being an in-house counsel for a company and he started to complain that she was too focused on her dream and not enough on their relationship. Be sure to listen to hear what we learned this week and be motivated for the week to come. Until we meet again. Pray! Work! Slay! And Show Off Your Melanated Excellence!

When I Froze on “Three Takes” I'll be honest, the first time a casting director asked me for three takes in the same vibe, my brain short-circuited. The first one felt okay. The second? I made it louder. The third? I whispered and hoped for divine intervention. Sound familiar? If you've been there, you're not alone. No one really teaches us how to do this. We just… guess. But over the years, I've learned that “three takes” doesn't have to be torture. It's actually an opportunity to show range, subtlety, and intention — if you know where to focus. My Five Go-To Tools for Variety Here's what I rely on: Change the environment. Close your eyes and imagine where you are. A noisy coffee shop shifts your energy in a completely different way than a quiet office. Add human sounds. We don't speak like robots. A breath, a chuckle, a little “mm-hmm” makes your read feel alive. Play with pauses. I love a pause. It can create tension, warmth, or surprise. Same words, totally different rhythm. Change your listener. Who am I talking to? A best friend feels different than a five-year-old. A stranger feels different than a coworker. Shift your motivation. This one's huge. Maybe I'm trying to inspire. Maybe I'm trying to tease. Same emotion, new motivation — and suddenly the take has layers. These adjustments keep me from falling into the “loud-soft-whisper” trap. Instead, each take feels intentional. Why I Lean on Improv Here's the secret I wish someone had told me sooner: improv isn't about being funny. It's about being present. When a casting director says, “Make it feel more natural,” what they really mean is, “Stop performing and start reacting.” Improv trains me to do that. It helps me: Make stronger choices quickly Stay grounded when I mess up React honestly instead of overthinking Give multiple takes that feel genuinely different As Kristen Wiig said, “Improv is about listening and not trying to be funny. It's about being honest.” I've found that to be absolutely true. What Fear Taught Me I know improv scares people. It used to terrify me. My brain would scream, “Don't mess this up. Don't look stupid.” But here's what shifted everything: fear means I care. Fear tells me I'm right at the edge of something interesting. If I can use it, not run from it, that's where the magic happens. Now, I remind myself: I don't have to be clever. I don't have to be perfect. I just have to be available. And ironically, that's when my best work happens. Why This Matters for You If you've been frustrated by the 1-2-3 take request, know this: it's not about pleasing the casting gods. It's about showing them you can be flexible, creative, and real. With these five tools and an improv mindset, you'll stop guessing. You'll start delivering takes that feel grounded and alive — and most importantly, like you. If you want help practicing this, I'd love to work with you. I offer free 15-minute consults, and I'm always excited to help actors build confidence in the booth and on the mic.

Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova.    This week, I'm joined by John Maxwell, someone who truly needs no introduction in the world of leadership. For over five decades, John has been teaching, writing, and inspiring leaders around the world. From his 5 Levels of Leadership to his 100+ books translated into 50 languages, he has shaped how millions think about what it means to lead well. But what I most admire about John, outside of the fact that he's a great guy, is that he doesn't just talk about leadership, he lives it. Whether working with Fortune 500 CEOs, young entrepreneurs or communities in need, he believes leadership is about one thing: adding value to others.   THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR…anyone who wants to be more intentional in their growth as a leader. Whether you're a CEO, founder, people manager, or just stepping into leadership, this episode is a must-listen.   TODAY'S MAIN MESSAGE…being put into a leadership position doesn't always mean you've been prepared to lead. In this candid conversation, John explains why too many leaders are handed bigger roles without the support or mentoring they need to succeed and how to change that. We discuss what makes leadership truly effective, the importance of intentional growth, and how to build a stronger leadership bench within your organization. If you're thinking about how to make sure your leadership legacy includes more than just your own success, John's wisdom will stick with you.   KEY TAKEAWAYS… Great leaders invest in their people, not just themselves. Consistency is the secret to long-term success and it compounds over time. Don't waste energy trying to fix your weaknesses. Instead, double down on your strengths. If you don't have a mentor, create one through books, podcasts, or intentional practice.   WHAT I LOVE MOST…John's reminder that leadership isn't about “me first” but about adding value to others. It's not your journey alone.    Running Time: 30:13    Subscribe on iTunes     Find Tiffani Online: LinkedIn Facebook X    Find John Online: Website LinkedIn Instagram
