Behind this smile, Takiya shares the truth about a business venture in which she was contracted as a advisor and consultant to revive a failing company. With more than 25 years as an established and successful entrepreneur, Takiya effortlessly took on the task of rebranding her clients business but shares how she made a simple contractual mistake that cost her time, effort, energy and a loss of the six-figure earnings. Most notedly, Takiya reminisces on the month long trip to Paris, pre-planned and already paid for that she "paused" on taking in order to complete the clients deadline for the assingment. She passed on Paris and in the end walked away feeling empty, ashamed, borderline broke, and angry at the quick turn of events she was facing. Tune in and listen to how God turned it all around and made it work out for her good.

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedBehind this smile, Takiya opens up and begins to share the truth about the pain, trials and life obstacles hidden behind her often infectious smile. For nearly two years, Takiya has kept silent about the private details of her sturggle with depression, anxiety and disapointment caused by a marriage and divorce that turned her life and family upside down. Dealing with the pain and pressure of it all led her to go into hiding to escape the reality she was living in which ultimately led to a nervous mental breakdown, "unintentionally" chopping her hair off to detach from the reminder and having visions of suicidal actions upon herself. Takiya shares how her intimate relationship with God prompted a "pick one" ultimatum that He let her either live or die which led Him to respond with a deeper purpose and prompt to release this podcast and speak about what life is like behind every reason she can still smile.
