Chandler Moore has spent years helping people find language for faith, surrender, and worship. But in this season, he’s using that same voice to tell a much more personal story—one that includes treatment, recovery, and the parts of healing that don’t fit neatly into a testimony. In this episode, Crystal sits down with Chandler to talk about why he chose to share I Checked Into Rehab, what he thought honesty might cost him, and how getting healthy has reshaped the way he sees strength, surrender, and his relationship with God. This is a conversation about truth, healing, and surrender—and what it looks like to choose yourself, trust God, and keep doing the work while the story is still being written.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Two-time GRAMMY Award winner Lucky Daye joins Crystal Renee Hayslett for a conversation about freedom, emotional growth, creativity, and what comes after you’ve already proven that your gift works. With more than 2 billion global streams and a new album, ALOUD!, Lucky is entering one of his most expressive chapters yet. In this episode, he opens up about what living without permission means to him, how he knows when to trust his vision, and how vulnerability continues to shape the way he writes about love. He and Crystal also talk about staying focused when comparison is everywhere, resetting when things don’t go as planned, and what still feels exciting after the accolades.

Lauren Speed-Hamilton’s love story may have started in a way the world watched unfold, but the life she’s built since then has required a different kind of faith, growth, and intention.

Dante Pride has built a life at the intersection of realness, music, ministry, marriage, and faith.

This is a conversation about grace and growth — and the courage to let God change you without losing who He called you to be.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Imani Ellis has built more than an event—she’s created a space where culture, creativity, and community can grow together.

This is a conversation about culture, calling, and becoming, and the work of staying grounded while the vision keeps getting bigger.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
