Hey Dear Tyla I really think Plantain is Overrated. People make a big deal out of a small issue. I'm not sure you can convince me otherwise either. Apart from plantain I think a lot of other things are overaatted. Listen to this episode and find out my own side of the story!

Hey Dear Tyla, have you ever had a crush on someone but never found the courage to say hello? It’s easy to imagine how things could be, but intentions alone don’t move a dream forward. In this episode, we talk about the distance between what you hope for and what you’re willing to do—and why even a small, brave step matters. Your dreams need more than daydreams. They need you to begin.

Hey Dear Tyla, Have you ever talked yourself out of a moment before it even had the chance to happen? Fear, assumptions, and second-guessing can make us read too much into a situation—or imagine an ending that hasn’t come. Sometimes, while trying to protect ourselves from disappointment, we miss the possibility right in front of us. In this episode, I’m reflecting on the “what could have been” moments we might lose when we let doubt make the decision for us. How do we tell the difference between wise caution and fear holding us back? And what might change if we gave ourselves permission to be present, ask, and take a chance? You may not be able to control how every moment turns out—but you can choose not to let an assumption answer for you.

Hey Dear Tyla, Have you ever called it humility when, deep down, you were shrinking back from what God placed in you? In Humble Limitations, we explore how a desire to stay modest can quietly become a reason to play small—downplaying our gifts, doubting our capacity, and holding back from the very things God has entrusted to us. Humility isn’t pretending you have nothing to offer. It’s recognising the gift, giving God the glory, and having the courage to use it well. If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re being humble—or limiting yourself—this conversation is for you. Listen in, reflect, and consider what might change if you stopped making small what God gave you.

Hey Dear Tyla, In this continuation of Will I Marry Me?, we take the conversation a little deeper—and turn the questions inward. How often do you pause to examine your own actions? What are your motives and intentions really saying about you? And are you willing to be honest about the parts of yourself that still need to grow? Self-evaluation isn’t about tearing yourself down or living in regret. It’s about having the courage to see yourself clearly, take responsibility, and choose to do better. Because becoming a better version of yourself begins with sincerity—with the willingness to tell yourself the truth, even when it’s uncomfortable. Let’s reflect on what it means to cross-examine our hearts with honesty and grace, so we can keep growing into the people we’re called to be.

Could you lead ten versions of yourself — at your current level — and sleep well at night? If following you was someone else's assignment, would they be confident… or stressed? In this episode, we sit with a question most of us run from: the honest evaluation of self. It's easy to demand from others what we've never addressed in our own lives — patience we don't practice, growth we haven't started, standards we hold everyone to but ourselves. But the version of you that judges others still has to answer for its own reflection. We talk about telling yourself the truth without condemning yourself, why honesty about where you are is the doorway to where you're going — and why the people quietly growing around you deserve to be celebrated, not taken for granted. Be honest. Be kind. And keep growing. 🎧 Listen now — and share it with someone who needs the mirror.

Hey Dear Tyla Have you ever held onto a belief so tightly that it became the very thing holding you back? In this vulnerable episode of Dear Tyla, we unpack the silent prison of captive convictions — those sincere, well-meaning beliefs spoken over us that eventually became the chains we couldn't see. From misreading a scripture to mean "someone else will rescue me," to carrying a poverty mindset that kept abundance out of reach — this is an honest look at how what we believe can either propel us into our destiny or keep us circling the same wilderness. Your invitation: re-evaluate your belief systems, ask what conviction is keeping you captive, and find the courage to break free. 🎙️ Listen now. Share with someone who needs it.

After over 6 months of being away Dear Tyla is back. I'm back and so excited. I've been on a journey of self discovery and excited to share with you all what I've learned so far. In today's episode I delve into the issues of being hidden. If you desire impact and generational influence you have to make your self known. How many things do people enjoy from you but never know it's from you? Favour needs a location and if you're serious about your life having impact then you've got to let people k ow who you are.

We live in a world motivated by the need to feel among and valued. Nobody truly thrives in isolation. A few introverts may say they enjoy their space but deep within we all want to belong to a community. Many of the things we learn come from the people within our environment and our peers in particular. Sadly many to these things leaned are vices and negative attributes. But this poses a question. If I can be part f a group and learn something negative can't I put myself in a group that represents the desires I crave and in turn build a positive outlook? In this episode we delve into the positive side of Peer Pressure and how to use it to our Advantage

Have you ever noticed how your social media feed seems tailor made for you specifically? Have you ever wondered how these organisations bring in things that you like or are interested in? Algorithms are a powerful aspect of the Tech world. They hold so much power in understanding users and giving predictable outcomes. Do you think it's possible to create predictable outcomes for your life? In this episode we discuss the reasons why things happen around us and how to control and be in charge of predictable outcomes. This episode will blow your mind

What do you do when life feels uncertain? Where do you turn when the noise of negativity is louder than your faith? And how do you keep trusting when the road ahead isn’t clear? In this episode, we pause to confront those quiet questions many of us carry but rarely voice. In His Hands invites you to shift your focus from what’s shaking around you to what is holding you steady. It’s not about ignoring reality—it’s about choosing to see it through the lens of God’s faithfulness. If you’ve been wrestling with doubt, pressure, or the weight of unanswered prayers, this conversation will gently lead you back to a powerful truth: your life is not out of control… it’s in His hands.

God is always sending help—often in ways we don’t expect and through people we don’t anticipate. But there’s a powerful truth many of us overlook: help is revealed when we move in obedience. In Helpers, we explore how divine provision is activated by faith-filled steps. Scripture shows us again and again that God releases resources, relationships, and direction when we respond to His Word. If we never step out, we may never see what He already prepared. This episode challenges you to stop waiting for perfect conditions and start walking in trust. Because when you move in obedience, you discover that heaven has already moved on your behalf.

The world is filled with so many voices. So many opinions are communicated to us on a daily basis that we can’t help but end up hearing all these things. Yet, in all this, the question begs: which voice is the most important to listen to? The voice of God, that of people, or of situations? Or is there a hidden voice we haven’t considered yet? In this episode, we go deep to discuss not just the voice that should be the loudest heard, but the loudest one spoken to. Dear Tyla, get set for a revelatory ride.

Have you ever wondered if your life is truly random, or if there’s a divine plan guiding every step you take? In this episode, we dive deep into the truth that your life is authored by God, and every chapter, every challenge, and every triumph is part of His perfect script. Drawing inspiration from Jeremiah 29:11, we explore how God has already placed landmarks, checkpoints, and divine directions in your journey. Learn how to recognize the signs of His guidance, embrace the purpose embedded in your story, and live with confidence knowing that your life has meaning and direction beyond what you can see. Join us as we uncover the profound reality that you are not walking through life by chance—you are following a script written by the Creator Himself.

Have you ever thanked God for surviving… yet felt weary of just surviving? In this episode of Dear Tyla, we explore the quiet shift from survival as a season to survival as an identity—and the gentle invitation God extends to move beyond it. Survival is a miracle. But it was never the mission. Through scripture, reflection, and honest truth, this episode speaks to those who have endured, remained strong, and stayed alert—yet sense that God is calling them into rest, wholeness, and abundance. We talk about releasing survival mode without dishonoring your story, trusting joy again, and learning to live rooted instead of braced. This episode is for anyone who knows God brought them out… but is realizing He also called them forward. Take a breath. Lay down the armor. There is more than survival.
