Tiffany Monique (Part 2)In Part 2 of this powerful conversation, Tiffany Monique shares the story she rarely tells publicly: being diagnosed with cancer in the very place her voice lives, and the emotional, spiritual, and artistic reckoning that followed.We explore what happens when your identity and livelihood are suddenly under threat — the fear, resilience, survival instinct, and rediscovery that shaped her return to music. Tiffany speaks openly about rebuilding her voice, reclaiming her artistic vision, learning to take up space, and redefining worth after years of supporting others in the spotlight.This episode is an intimate look at healing, purpose, creative power, and what it truly means to find your voice again.

Tiffany Monique has spent nearly two decades shaping the sound of one of the most iconic artists of our time — Beyoncé — as a vocal director, arranger, and powerhouse vocalist. Yet so much of her brilliance lives behind the scenes.In Part 1 of this two-part conversation, Tiffany opens up about the hidden art of vocal direction, the evolution of her role in Beyoncé’s world, and what it means to find your own identity when your career is built in service of someone else’s spotlight. We talk about artistry, storytelling, credit, self-worth, personal loss, and the journey of carving out your own lane in an industry that often overlooks the people who hold it all together.This is a masterclass in craft, resilience, humility, and claiming your space — even when no one is watching.

Singer, songwriter, and vocal coach India Carney has spent years helping other artists sound their best on The Voice, American Idol, and beyond. But finding her own voice meant something deeper: learning to stand up for her value, to ask for what she deserves, and to unlearn the idea that humility means silence.In this conversation, India and Dr. Alexander Lloyd Blake talk about what it takes to feel worthy in an industry that often confuses kindness for weakness, and how reclaiming your power can transform both your art and your sense of self.

In this episode of This Might Get Personal, I sit down with artist and performer Vincint to talk about what it means to be seen — as Black, queer, and beautifully human — in an industry that hasn’t always made space for either. Vincint opens up about growing up surrounded by gospel music, the long road to finding their voice in Los Angeles, and the power of embracing every part of who you are, even when the world tells you not to.✨ In this episode:Finding beauty and belonging as a Black queer artistLearning to stay soft in a world that hardens differenceWhy visibility and vulnerability can be acts of powerUnfiltered.
