  • The Doula, The Advocate for Justice, The Abolitionist - A Conversation with Kylia Joyce of You Are Seen Doula Services
    Jun 16 2025

    In this heart-centered conversation, Kylia Joyce joins Theo at the coffee table to share what it means to be a doula and an abolitionist, leading with tenderness through her company, You Are Seen Doula Services.

    With courage and clarity, she speaks on what it takes to advocate for justice — even when it makes others uncomfortable — and the lived experience of growing into womanhood as a Black person in today’s world.

    From identity and resilience to rest and resistance, Kylia opens up about her journey of healing through service, redefining success, and choosing softness as a form of protest.

    ☕ Come sit at the coffee table — you’ll leave feeling seen, stirred, and kindly reminded: to be on the right side of history, you must choose it for yourself.

  • Donald Trump, Discernment, and the Danger of Charisma
    Jun 16 2025

    What happens when we stop blindly following charisma and start asking harder questions about power, influence, and emotional manipulation? This solo episode explores how cultural figures like Donald Trump expose deeper truths about our spiritual discernment, our relationship with leadership, and the danger of prioritizing performance over integrity. A bold, unfiltered reflection that is meant not to comfort, but to awaken us all to the current realities of the United States of America.

  • God, Positive Thinking, and What It Really Means to Be Discerning
    Jun 9 2025

    In this solo episode of Theo’s Coffee Break, I explore the tension between faith, toxic positivity, and real spiritual discernment.

    What does it mean to be a person of hope without bypassing the hard stuff? How do we stay grounded in God’s goodness without gaslighting ourselves through suffering?

    This isn’t just about “thinking good thoughts.” It’s about returning to YOU—your wisdom, your clarity, your intuition—and learning to trust that joy isn’t earned, it’s allowed.

    If you’ve ever been told to “just have more faith” when you were breaking inside, this episode is for you.

    Welcome back to Theo's coffee table where the coffee is always on and warm.
