Beskrivelse

Some people wait for luck. Others make their own. The Winning Hand explores what it really means to play the cards you’re dealt and how one decision can change everything. In this episode, host Makaela Woodson talks with her jack of all trades brother, Dante Woodson, about how he built a successful life without a college degree, starting from the challenges of a single-parent home and an early move out on his own. It’s a story about risk, resilience, and redefining success on your own terms; proof that sometimes the best wins come from the hardest beginnings. From side hustles and self-doubt to self-made success, The Winning Hand asks: what happens when you stop folding and finally play your cards right?

Plot Twist: I'm that Girl: By Maya Long

“Plot Twist: I’m that Girl” follows the heartfelt journey of Jace, a woman who spent years feeling out of sync with the world and with herself. After growing up believing something was “off”, she finally discovered the truth she’d been circling her whole life: she wasn’t meant to live her assigned birth sex, she was meant to live as her. Jace invites listeners into the messy, yet meaningful, process of transitioning, from emotional breakthroughs to awkward conversations and everything in between. This is a story of courage, self-discovery, and the freedom that comes from embracing your true identity, no matter how long it takes to achieve it. “Plot Twist: I’m that Girl” is a reminder that transformation is rarely simple, often surprising, and absolutely worth it.
