Show notes

Tiny Harris takes over ExpediTIously! Joined by co-host and comedian Erica Duchess, Tiny sits down with entrepreneur, wellness advocate and mother Aj’a Yada for a candid conversation about relationships, domestic violence, faith and rebuilding your life.

Aj’a shares her account of meeting her former partner, entering a polygamous relationship and discovering a painful difference between the message presented publicly and what she says was happening behind closed doors. She opens up about why she stayed, the moment she realized the relationship was no longer safe and how strengthening her relationship with God helped her find the courage to leave.

The conversation also explores financial independence, protecting your children, recognizing available resources and why leaving an abusive relationship can be far more complicated than people realize.

Aj’a also discusses the next chapter of her life, including her wellness business, upcoming nonprofit and House of Divine—a platform created to help women recover from adversity and build lives rooted in safety, purpose and independence.

This is the Tiny Takeover: an honest conversation about survival, resilience and reclaiming your power.

Show notes

In recognition of National Sober Day, T.I. sits down with comedian Fattman Deezy and Atlanta rap legend Young Dro for a raw, honest and surprisingly funny conversation about addiction, recovery and rebuilding your life.

Deezy opens up about using drugs for more than 20 years, hiding his addiction from the people closest to him and entering sobriety at 38 years old. He shares the moments that forced him to confront the truth, why he feared he would never perform comedy sober and how reaching five years clean changed his relationship with himself and his family.

Young Dro reflects on his own five-year sobriety journey, the mental and emotional toll of addiction and why money and success could not protect him from his lowest moments. Together, they discuss triggers, relapse, shame, support systems and how to recognize when substance use has taken control.

This is an unfiltered conversation about telling yourself the truth, asking for help and choosing a future greater than what is in front of you today.
