Sis. This one is for YOU—the version of you that's been dimming her light, shrinking back, and second-guessing if it's “too much” to walk in the authority God gave you. This isn't about ego. It's not about hot girl summer for the aesthetic. This is what happens when purpose meets obedience. In this powerful, truth-packed episode, Brandi isn't calling you out—she's calling you UP. She's unpacking what main character energy really looks like in the Kingdom. It's not loud. It's not arrogant. It's not you getting everything you want. It's alignment. Boldness. Confidence. Authority. Peace. Obedience. So why are we so afraid to walk in it? Brandi digs deep into the real reason many of us settle for being the side character in our own story—and how the enemy uses guilt, fear, and false humility to keep us small. If you've ever felt conflicted about being too much, questioned your assignment, or caught yourself shrinking so others feel more comfortable, this one will wreck you in the best way.

Megan Yelaney organically grew a new Instagram account to over 34,000 followers in under a year—while pumping for her newborn twins and running a coaching business. This second account was separate from her business brand account, born as a passion project documenting her motherhood journey. But by applying the same content strategies she's taught over 1,000 coaches to help them stand out and sell out, Megan turned limited time into maximum audience growth—without paid ads or trend-chasing. In this case study, she shares the simple but strategic approach behind her viral content that grew her audience by 34,000: the three types of posts that consistently performed, her lead generating storytelling framework, and why choosing a topic you're already living can be the easiest way to create high-impact content. If you're short on time but big on intention, this conversation will change the way you think about your content. Thank you to our sponsor!

In Episode 84 of Operation: Thriving Marriage, Bryon and Jen Harvey dive into a trending concept from Gen Z culture: “Main Character Energy.” Bryon kicks off the conversation by sharing how he came across the term and what it means—seeing yourself as the central figure in every situation. Jen offers insight into how this mindset can subtly affect relationships, especially in the context of marriage. In marriage, “main character energy” often shows up as self-centered responses to your spouse's honest communication. For example, one spouse might express a want or need, only for the other spouse to spiral into self-doubt, guilt, or defensiveness. Instead of hearing the concern for what it is, the response becomes about personal failure—how they aren't measuring up. Bryon shares how he used to feel inadequate when Jen needed to talk to her friends, misinterpreting her need for community as a sign he wasn't enough. But the truth is: It's not always about you. Sometimes your spouse just needs to express themselves, and it's not a reflection on your performance as a husband or wife. Bryon and Jen discuss how even negative self-focus is still a form of pride—it centers the conversation on you, rather than your partner. Jen highlights Philippians 2:3 (NET): “Instead of being motivated by selfish ambition or vanity, each of you should, in humility, be moved to treat one another as more important than yourself.” They also quote Rick Warren's famous line: “Humility is not thinking less of yourself. It's thinking about yourself less.” This mindset shift is essential for healthy, God-honoring communication. When your spouse shares a concern, the most loving response is to listen without reacting defensively. Practice active listening without trying to fix the problem right away. In many cases, your spouse may just need a listening ear. And when your spouse is asking for a change in attitude or action, view it as a gift—not a criticism. They're giving you a clear way to love them better. It's also important not to spiral into insecurity. Remind yourself: your spouse loves you, chose you, and continues to say yes to you daily. Trust that if they need something specific from you, they'll communicate it directly. And for the spouse who's expressing a concern—don't drop hints. Be clear and direct. Marriage isn't a guessing game; it's a safe, sacred space to speak openly and specifically. The episode wraps up with this truth: Main character energy destroys many relationships. Yes, you are vitally important to your spouse. But not everything is about you. When your spouse shares a concern, let it be their concern. Support them, listen, and trust that love grows when we stop making ourselves the center of every story. Operation: Thriving Marriage continues to help couples build stronger, Christ-centered relationships—together. Don't forget to subscribe and share this episode with someone who needs to hear it!
Bill Belichick has always been a master of control—on the field, in the press, and with his own narrative. But this episode examines how that carefully crafted reputation is unraveling, not because of a fumbled statement, but due to the outsize influence of his much-younger girlfriend, Jordan Hudson. A viral CBS interview, public statements blaming the media, and confusion about her expanding “professional” role—all illustrate a pattern where the desire to squash uncomfortable questions only fuels more curiosity and suspicion for the current UNC football coach. Using the latest PR missteps as a case study, the episode spotlights the danger of losing control over the story to someone whose only real credential is main character energy. When boundary issues and amateur crisis management collide, even New England legends risk getting steamrolled by bad optics. The tension between protecting privacy and inviting chaos gets put under the spotlight, challenging listeners to recognize when a message stops being strategy and starts becoming farce.In this episode:The real cost of outsourcing reputation management to someone with minimal experience and maximum influenceWhy blaming the media—and the audience—always backfires, no matter how famous you areHow losing internal boundaries blurs personal and professional roles, turning even legacy brands into tabloid fodderWant More Behind the Breakdown?

In this episode, I'm sharing the full story behind one of my biggest revenue weeks in this new season of business: $42,000 in sales, including a $20K cash day, all while working part-time hours and raising twins (and NOT in the middle of a launch). This wasn't a one-time fluke. It's the result of building a brand with a clear edge, focusing on what actually drives sales, and letting go of outdated strategies that no longer serve the version of me (or my business) today. Inside, I get into: How I brought in high-ticket sales without working around the clock Why reinventing my business was necessary—even after past success The shifts that helped me create results during a season of less What building a truly distinctive brand looks like in practice The behind-the-scenes of launching my new podcast, Main Character Energy If you're in a pivot, rebuilding after a break, or just tired of feeling like your business doesn't reflect you anymore—this episode will show you what's possible when you lead with your edge.

Tiffany Knighten, creatorpreneur and host of Main Character Energy, believes in choosing self-worth over burnout and rewriting the script on success. After climbing the corporate media ladder and facing constant microaggressions and exhaustion, Knighten made a bold decision to quit her job—and her viral ‘QuitTok' became a rallying cry for the Great Resignation. She shares how that leap led her to build an agency amplifying the voices of BIPOC creatives and women of color, and how embracing anti-hustle culture helped her reclaim her mental health, confidence, and purpose. About Tiffany Knighten: Tiffany's journey began by quitting her 9-to-5 to prioritize her mental health and starting a business that amplified the voices of BIPOC creatives and women of color. Today, she helps her network build their brand, confidence, and community effortlessly. As the host of Main Character Energy with Tiff Knighten, Tiffany delves into the journeys of entrepreneurs and creatives who have successfully navigated rewriting their scripts and channeling audacious self-belief.
