On Shame: The Sexy Skeletons in my Closet

In this bold and truth-telling conversation, Christa B. Allen and Victoria Daniel sit with the spiritual weight of shame - how it shapes the stories we tell about ourselves, the choices we make, and claiming our worth. Christa opens her heart to share her journey from working in the unpredictable world of film and television to the intimate decision to join – and later leave – OnlyFans, which she did for a while to make a living in between acting jobs. With courage and clarity, she names the pressures, projections, and internal battles that so many women carry in silence. Together, Christa and Victoria explore how shame becomes a tool of control, how women’s sexuality is policed and misunderstood, and how social media amplifies the narratives we’re taught to hide behind. Through prayerful reflection and raw honesty, they ask: What happens when we tell the truth about our desires? Our fears? Our mistakes? What freedom becomes possible when we refuse to let shame speak louder than love? In this episode, we explore: * The judgment and double standards surrounding women’s autonomy * The quiet ways shame manipulates us into staying small and silentThe healing power of confession, community, and being witnessed * We also hear a Listener’s stories of liberation, self-acceptance, and reclaiming their personal truth This is an invitation to meet your shame with compassion, to witness the places you’ve abandoned yourself, and to remember that your “mess” is often the very place your message is born. Because every day is another chance to come home to yourself. It’s a daily commitment. And it’s a date. A Praydate.

How Darkness Reveals the Light

Welcome to the very first episode of Praydate! Hosted by Christa B. Allen and Victoria Daniel, Praydate is a sacred yet unfiltered space where devotion meets real life. In this opening conversation, we sit with the mystery of suffering: If God is good, why do we suffer? Together, we explore the Epicurean paradox, the tension between free will and divine love, and the way pain can become a teacher when we meet it with presence. We share honest stories of grief, health challenges, and transformation, moments that broke us open and brought us home to ourselves. Here, we don’t hide from the hard questions. We hold them in prayer. We ask what integrity, faith, and gratitude look like when life feels unfair, and how even our deepest doubts can become the sacred ground where we grow. This is an invitation to bring your whole self - the faith, the fear, the longing, the levity - and commit to your connection with the Divine. Not once, but every day. Because every day is another chance to connect. It’s a daily commitment. It’s a date. A Praydate. Watch on Spotify, Listen on Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your Podcasts!

Introducing..The Praydate Podcast with Christa B. Allen & Victoria Daniel

Welcome to Praydate, a sacred yet unfiltered conversation space hosted by Christa B. Allen and Victoria Daniel. This is where prayer meets real life - the questions, the paradoxes, the shame, the beauty, and the breakthroughs. We open every episode with prayer, grounding ourselves in love, unity, and reverence for all paths, and then step boldly into raw conversations about the truths many are too afraid to say out loud. On Praydate, nothing is off-limits: * Can the Problem of Evil actually reveal the goodness of God? * How has shame, especially sexual shame, been used to control us, and how can reclaiming it bring freedom? * What if singleness isn’t a failure but a soul’s sacred choice? * And what would integrity look like if every word and action were projected on the biggest screen in the universe? This is a show for those who have been hurt by religion, those who have healed, and those still seeking. It’s for anyone who wants to rediscover prayer not as a rigid ritual, but as a daily act of courage, honesty, and connection. Now Let’s Close: “May the words we share become seeds of kindness in the world. May the wisdom of every path guide us closer to truth. May the light in each of us shine brighter every day. We go forward with open hearts, remembering we are never separate, always connected, always held in love. And so it is. Amen. Shalom. Salaam. Om. Aho. May all beings everywhere know blessing.” This is Praydate. Come sit with us. Pray with us.  Follow the Podcast and Hosts! * @praydatepod [https://www.instagram.com/praydatepod/] * @christa [https://www.instagram.com/christa/] * @vicdaniel [https://www.instagram.com/vicdaniel/] * @rainbowcreative_ [https://www.instagram.com/rainbowcreative_/] Thank you to our Presenting Sponsor Heavenly Heat Saunas [https://heavenlyheatsaunas.com/]!
