Our team thought it was a great idea to start rewinding previous (but timely) episodes of our show during the times that Mista Yu is away from the microphone. All of these beautiful Blasts from the Past were previously broadcast, but we are sharing them with you at a time when you might need them most. Hope you enjoy the review!

Hey, Friends and Family.
Even in the months of the podcast season when things are slow, we got content for you. Our team thought it a great idea to start reviewing previous (but timely) episodes of our show during the times that Mista Yu is away from the microphone. All of these episodes (or beautiful Blasts from the Past) were previously broadcasted but we are sharing them with you for a time that you might need it most. Hope you enjoy!
What if success looks less like metrics and more like obedience? We mark a year on the mic by leaning into a conversation about calling, healing, and building a life that actually fits the season you’re in. Our guest, entrepreneur and veteran Kat Pons, brings the candor of military service, the tenderness of motherhood, and the focus of a mission-led business to explore how faith shapes real-world decisions—what to cut, what to keep, and how to stay consistent without losing what matters.
We trace her roots from New York to Puerto Rico and Florida, where grandparents modeled enterprise and everyday herbal wisdom. That early training meets a modern wellness practice: Restoration From Within, a coaching and clean body-care brand that treats health as stewardship. Kat shares why skin is a truth-teller, how hibiscus tinctures and wild oregano extracts support holistic routines, and why Kingdom principles—not trends—anchor her work. She also opens up about PTSD, naming the small ways trauma shows up and how inviting the Holy Spirit into therapy can produce breakthrough after breakthrough.
The story widens into a bold vision: Life Support Centers that partner with local organizations to meet spiritual and practical needs—from counseling to food access—so overlooked communities can flourish. Along the way, we talk boundaries that keep relationships from getting “too familiar,” time stewardship through a five-day Reclaiming Your Time program, and simple practices that keep you human: consecration breaks from social media, unhurried rides, and yes, joyful plates of mofongo or creative vegan eats.
If you’re ready to recalibrate your days around purpose, heal with both wisdom and wonder, and build a framework that serves your season, press play. Subscribe, share this with a friend who needs hope and structure, and leave a review to help more people find the show.
