The Living Proof Podcast

Dr Cheyenne Bryant They Tried to Cancel Her — She Never Flinched

"Featured in Forbes, Oprah Magazine, PEOPLE, and USA Today — Dr. Cheyenne Bryant is one of the most recognized psychology experts in the world. And she chose the Living Proof Podcast to get raw." She grew up in the hood.  Two teenage parents. A mother battling a 30-year addiction.  A father selling the drug she was using.  No blueprint.  No one ahead of her to follow. And somehow she became the most sought after psychology expert and life coach in the world. But this episode isn't just about her success. It's about what she had to survive to get there. Dr. Cheyenne Bryant is a life coach, best-selling author, and psychology expert with global exposure sits down with Daeron Myers on the Living Proof Podcast for a raw, unfiltered conversation that will shake you. She breaks down why she called off TWO weddings.  Why a man calling himself ready to SERVE changed everything.  Why toxicity is not a reason to leave a relationship.  And why the people you serve the hardest are often the ones who come for you the hardest. She talks about the comedian who attacked her for years — and what God did to him without her lifting a single finger. She digs into what it really means to carry your cross when the people you're serving are the ones trying to crucify you. This is not a feel-good episode. This is a mirror. If you've ever felt abandoned.  Overlooked.  Attacked by the same people you poured into — this episode is for you. New book Live Your Promise available now wherever books are sold. This one Hit Different Dr B is definitely Living Proof… Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2596448/support]

At just 10 years old… one moment changed everything. A decision. A path. A life that started moving fast… real fast. Money came quick. Power came faster. At one point… he was making $50,000 a day. But nobody talks about what comes next. The silence. The setup. The moment everything catches up to you. 15 years gone. No phones. No social media. No guarantee of who you’ll be when you come home. Most people don’t recover from that. But this story doesn’t end there. Because what happened after prison is what makes this different. Relationships that shouldn’t exist… Rooms most people will never see… And a level of peace most people never reach. This isn’t just a comeback story. It’s about: Survival vs purpose Street success vs real success And why relationships are worth more than money If you’ve ever felt like your situation defined you… or like you started too far behind… This one is going to hit different.

What do you do when broken promises and shattered dreams make you walk away from the one thing you love most?  In this episode of the Living Proof Podcast, we sit down with Jeff Otto  Afrobeats artist, community builder, mental health advocate, and Silver Spring native  to dive into the raw, unfiltered journey behind the music. Jeff gets real about growing up Ghanaian in Montgomery County, the moment he shocked his entire school with a senior talent show performance nobody saw coming, and why he walked away from music entirely for nearly four years.  He breaks down how a viral skydiving birthday moment gave him the opening he needed to come back stronger — landing on BET, performing in front of 50,000 people, and building a loyal following completely independently. But this episode goes way beyond music. Jeff opens up about why being signed to a label is often more hype than reality, how therapy and yoga changed his mental health game, what it means to build a marriage with someone who knew you when you had $10 in your bank account, and why he created a sold-out celebrity basketball game in MoCo just to give his community something to celebrate. Whether you're an artist still waiting for your moment, someone battling self-doubt, or just someone who needs a reminder that your setbacks are setting you up — Jeff's story will hit different.

Raven Paris x Daeron Myers | LIVING PROOF PODCAST

What does it take to build the biggest Wealth Summit in the DMV region from scratch — with no board, no sponsors, and no blueprint?  In this episode of the Living Proof Podcast, we sit down with Raven Paris  marketing strategist, radio personality, community builder, and founder of the Wealth Summit Live — to unpack the real story behind her rise. Raven gets raw about growing up with strong women who shaped her, the moment she turned down a full-time job offer straight out of Morgan State University to chase her dream, and how faith became the foundation of every bold move she's ever made.  She shares how she went from running an internet radio show to landing at 92Q and TMZ, and how she and her husband Tony built a financial education movement that has attracted hundreds of youth, major bank sponsors, and attendees from across the country. But this episode goes beyond business. Raven opens up about setting firm boundaries in relationships, navigating a blended family with grace, why women need to stop allowing access to people who no longer serve them, and the mindset shift that separates people who build wealth from those who just talk about it. Whether you're an entrepreneur, a creative, a parent, or someone still figuring out their next move — this episode will challenge you, inspire you, and remind you that your setbacks are just setting up your story. Topics covered: betting on yourself, generational wealth, financial literacy, women in business, blended families, relationship boundaries, marketing strategy, community building, faith and entrepreneurship. 🔗 Follow Raven Paris on Instagram @ravenparis | ceosevolve.com | wealthsummitlive.com Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2596448/support]
