Kouch Konversations with Venus Chandler welcomes Christian author, spoken word artist, and speaker Brandon Hathaway for a powerful conversation about faith, pain, healing, and perseverance.

In this heartfelt episode, Brandon shares the story behind his book, Still Walking, and opens up about his personal journey through depression, anxiety, addiction, church hurt, and moments when life felt overwhelming. Together, we explore what it means to keep trusting God when the answers don't come quickly, how healing often happens one step at a time, and why your struggles do not define your purpose.

If you've ever questioned your faith, battled silent pain, or wondered if you could keep moving forward, this conversation is for you. Brandon's honesty, vulnerability, and unwavering hope serve as a powerful reminder that even in our darkest seasons, God is still at work.

This is more than an interview, it's a conversation that will encourage, challenge, and remind you that no matter what you've faced, you can still be walking.

Eighteen times.

Let that sink in.

What was supposed to be the end of her story became the beginning of a powerful testimony that is now impacting lives around the world.

On this jaw-dropping episode of Kouch Konversations, host Venus Chandler sits down with survivor, author, advocate, and warrior Adrianne A. Michelle Anderson-Green to discuss the unthinkable.

Previously appearing on the Evelyn Lozada podcast "Drop the Lo" telling her courageous story, we are honored to have her on our podcast to tell the story once more.

How do you survive being stabbed 18 times?

How do you heal from the physical wounds, the emotional scars, and the trauma that follows?

How do you find the strength to trust, love, and live again after someone tried to take your life?

Adrianne takes us beyond the headlines and into the reality of survival, recovery, forgiveness, faith, and resilience.

This isn't just an interview.

This is a masterclass in courage.

A story of a woman who refused to let her pain have the final word.

A story that will leave you speechless, inspired, and deeply grateful for the gift of life.

⚠️ Viewer discretion advised. This episode contains discussions of violence, trauma, and domestic abuse.

🎙️ "Stabbed to Life"
Because sometimes surviving is only the beginning of the story.

Welcome back to another powerful episode of Kouch Konversations hosted by Venus Chandler. During Mental Health Awareness Month, we continue the important conversation surrounding grief, healing, emotional survival, and the faces people wear while hurting in silence.

In this heartfelt episode, we sit down with Toray Green for a raw and honest conversation titled:

“The Faces We Hide: Life After Losing Your Person.”

How do you continue living when a piece of your heart is gone?

On this powerful episode of Kouch Konversations, we sit down with Auaja Lovest and Vernita Edwards for a real, unfiltered conversation about the pain people carry behind the scenes.

This discussion dives into functional depression, what it looks like when someone is showing up, smiling, working, and appearing “okay,” while silently struggling within. We also explore the heavy but necessary topic of suicidal ideation, breaking the stigma and opening the door for honest dialogue.

Together, we unpack:

• Why so many people suffer in silence
• The pressure to appear strong while hurting inside
• Signs that are often missed
• How we can create safer spaces for people to say, “I’m not okay”

This episode is for anyone who has ever felt unseen, unheard, or overwhelmed and for those who want to better understand and support others.

You never know what someone is carrying behind their smile.

If you or someone you know is struggling, help is available. In the U.S., you can call or text 988, the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.

Tune in, lean in, and be part of the conversation.

What if the hardest truth you will ever face… is your own reflection?

In this raw and unfiltered episode of Kouch Konversations, host Venus Chandler sits down with Jewel Carter to confront a question most people spend their lives avoiding:

Are you truly being honest about who you are?

Beyond the masks.
Beyond the survival.
Beyond the version of yourself you present to the world.

This conversation challenges you to look deeper into your choices, your patterns, your pain, and your accountability.

Because the truth is…
The mirror doesn’t lie.
We do.

And once you stop running from your reflection, the next question becomes unavoidable:

What are you going to change?

This episode is for those who are ready to do the real work,
to confront, to heal, and to become.

No filters. No excuses. Just truth.

Tune in and join the conversation that could change how you see yourself… forever.

Your healing doesn’t happen in silence; it happens in conversation.

In this first episode of Kouch Konversations, we dive into one of the most painful and misunderstood realities in families and relationships, being cut off.

We’re talking about:

Family estrangement

Adult children and entitlement

Parents who feel abandoned

Boundaries that get labeled as “disrespect”

Silence used as punishment

Emotional immaturity on both sides

This conversation is not about blaming one side.
It’s about understanding what leads to separation, and whether it’s always justified.

Today I am honored that our guest Auaja comes to us w/her master's in social sciences, a licensed drug and alcohol counselor, Peer Support Specialist and a Professional Mediator.
She has raised two Kings, founder of The Chrysalis Transformation, N4P organization and your Peace Balance & Harmony (PBH) a for Profit organization.
My friend, my colleague, my confidant, Auaja Lovest.

“Cynthia Cave joins us today bringing personal experience with estrangement, entitlement, and the emotional impact of being cut off. She understands the layers, the hurt, the pride, the boundaries, the misunderstandings, and she’s willing to have the honest conversation about what really happens when families disconnect.”

“As a life coach and women’s advocate, I help others navigate boundaries and healing. But I would be dishonest if I didn’t say I’m walking through some of these realities myself. And sometimes the hardest lessons are the ones that hit home.”
“And that’s why this episode isn’t about pointing fingers. It’s about understanding what happens when boundaries, entitlement, pride, and pain collide, and asking ourselves what healing really requires.”

Your healing doesn’t happen in silence; it happens in conversation.
