Empower Hour with Lady J
Welcome to Empower Hour with Lady J (formerly The Jodi Watkins Show and originally Breaking Barriers Now).
This is where faith, leadership, healing, and intentional living come together through honest conversations and practical wisdom. Whether I'm sharing lessons from my own journey or sitting down with inspiring guests, every episode is designed to help you move forward with greater clarity, courage, and purpose.
What You'll Hear
• Honest conversations about leadership, resilience, faith, personal growth, and legacy
• Practical strategies you can apply in your everyday life
• Stories of overcoming adversity, rebuilding after setbacks, and choosing purpose over fear
• Thought-provoking discussions with leaders, entrepreneurs, veterans, authors, and everyday people creating meaningful impact
Some episodes feature special guests. Others are conversations directly from me, sharing insights, experiences, and lessons I'm learning along the way.
Why Listen?
If you're navigating change, rebuilding after disappointment, growing as a leader, or simply striving to become more intentional in the way you live and lead, you're in the right place.
This isn't about perfection.
It's about progress, personal responsibility, and choosing every day to become the person you're called to be.

Thanksgiving Special: The Power of Awareness and Choice
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this solo episode, I’m exploring the importance of "awareness"—being mindful of our words and the influence others have on our journey. Too often, we let others’ opinions or agendas shift us away from the path we’re meant to walk. But here’s the truth: we have the power of choice.
We don’t have to carry shame or guilt imposed by others. Instead, we can stand firm in our purpose, knowing that God often uses those who’ve faced immense challenges to shine His light through their testimonies. Your story matters; when you allow Him to guide you, you’ll find strength and clarity like never before.
Join me as I share insights on breaking free from external pressures, honoring your God-given path, and living in alignment with His plan. Let’s keep progressing together—tune in again next week for more encouragement and growth!

Keep tuning into our podcast. Share with others who need to hear these things. Let's keep going. It's time to be grateful for what we have this Thanksgiving and never allow anyone to take us away from God's purpose for our lives. Take care, and God bless!
This track was made by my daughter, Jasmine. She is my why for everything I do.
