Breaking the Box: Music, Healing & Finding Your Voice Without Permission w/Guest: Bri Toria — Singer, Songwriter, Spiritual Practitioner, Healer, Mentor, Business OwnerIn this powerful episode of Sculpt N Create, Trea Da Fit Artist sits down with Bri Toria for a raw conversation about finding your voice, breaking generational cycles, and healing through creativity.Bri opens up about being bullied out of singing at a young age for not fitting the “expected” church sound, and how that experience planted years of fear, self-doubt, and silence around her voice. Instead of quitting, she chose to carry the creative baton passed down through the women in her family and run her own race.From her genre-blending neo-soul and alternative R&B sound to her debut album I Am ISIS, Bri shares how music became a tool for self-love, emotional release, and spiritual healing. She also speaks honestly about touring as an independent artist... the vocal strain, technical issues, stress, and growth... and why taking the leap matters more than being “ready.”The conversation expands beyond music into Bri’s work as a Reiki healer, EMDR specialist, sound therapist, and mentor, exploring how mind, body, and soul alignment shows up in both her art and her mission.If you’ve ever felt boxed in by expectations or discouraged out of your calling, this episode will hit home.🔑 KEY TAKEAWAYS✔️ Being “different” is often a sign you’re on the right path✔️ Generational patterns can quietly suppress creative gifts✔️ Silencing your voice comes at an emotional cost✔️ Healing and creativity are deeply connected✔️ Touring ain’t glamorous, growth happens in the struggle✔️ Confidence is built before validation shows up✔️ You don’t need permission to answer your calling💬 BARS FROM THE EPISODE🔥 “Depression is your true self trapped in a box trying to get out.”🔥 “I heal people whether it’s through music, sound, or energy.”🔥 “Don’t let hurt people dictate your life.”🔥 “Your calling usually starts when you’re a kid.”🔥 “Be your biggest cheerleader until your team shows up.”🔥 “The marathon continues... even when it hurts.”🕰️ Episode Chapters00:00 – Answering the Call Again01:15 – Meet Bri Toria03:26 – Defining Her Sound04:54 – Musical Influences & Experimentation11:31 – The Story Behind I Am ISIS15:27 – First Album Lessons18:48 – Hiding vs. Expanding as an Artist29:09 – Church, Rejection & Being Bullied for Her Voice40:35 – Carrying the Baton & Breaking Generational Cycles48:52 – Touring With One Project55:07 – Healing Beyond Music1:03:09 – What’s Next1:10:00 – Final Takeaways🔗 Connect w/ Bri Toria & Services🌐 Website: https://themelaninuniverse.com/📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/toriaabrii/🎵 TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@nubiann.britoraa▶️ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@bri_toria🎶 Music on all platforms: Search “Bri Toria”🔗 Connect w/ Trea Da Fit Artist🚀 Ready to level up your fitness, creativity & performance?📄Get Your Fit Masterpiece Score:https://rebrand.ly/fmpscore💪🏾 Coaching & Training: https://pocketsuite.io/book/nextworldfitness/item/masterpiece-sculpting-call🎨Join the Fit Masterpiece Collabs Network:https://fit-masterpiece-collabs.mn.co/🎧 More Episodes: https://creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/sculptncreate🎤 Be a Guest on the PodcastArtists, entertainers, creatives, or wellness pros with a story to share?👉🏾 Apply here: https://pocketsuite.io/form/dxOo

🎙️ Sculpt N Create — Episode 19 w/ Debbie SimmonsSome people chase success…but others live their legacy long before anyone applauds it.In this episode, Debbie Simmons — CEO, nonprofit founder, speaker, and “Legacy Architect” — breaks down what it really means to live with intention and significance in real time, not just at the end of your life.From grief and pressure to purpose, leadership, and impact, we explore how artists, entertainers, and purpose-driven creatives can build a legacy through the way they live, create, and serve right now.If you’ve ever wondered, “Is this all there is?” or felt the weight of responsibility, this one’s for you.⭐ Key Takeaways✔️Legacy is lived, not just left.

🎙️ Sculpt N Create — Episode 17 w/ Kam KnightIn this powerful and eye-opening episode, Trea Da Fit Artist chops it up with international speaker, author, and mental performance mentor Kam Knight to break down a hidden force holding many creatives back: internal resistance.Kam unpacks how our minds quietly sabotage our best intentions, why talented artists and entertainers often struggle to take action, and how past experiences, perfectionism, self-image, and unconscious beliefs all contribute to the invisible wall we hit when chasing our dreams.From comfort zones to childhood programming, Kam explains how identifying and working through resistance is the key to unlocking real progress... not just in art and business, but in fitness, health, and everyday life.This one’s a must-listen for any creative who’s ever felt stuck, paralyzed by fear, or unsure why they can’t move forward.

Together, they explore how to maintain connection while growing individually, how emotional strain shows up in the body, and why communication is maintenance, not something you only do when things fall apart.Whether you're an artist, entertainer, entrepreneur, or someone navigating love while chasing your vision, this one is going to hit home.🎯 Key TakeawaysNot everyone needs clinical therapy — coaching supports growth before crisis.Understanding the difference between clinical depression & overwhelm is essential.Mental health stigma still prevents many from seeking help.Emotional stress often shows up physically — the mind and body are connected.Proactive relationship maintenance prevents emotional distance.Communication ain't about being right, it’s about staying connected.Silence in a relationship is usually a signal, not comfort.Shared goals keep relationships aligned during growth.Work-life balance requires clarity, communication & intention.Creativity thrives when you have community and emotional safety.🎤 Bars From the Episode“Communication ain't just talking, it’s maintaining the connection.”“Love doesn’t collapse under ambition; it collapses under silence.”“If we’re growing, we have to grow together.”“Your relationship can be your peace or your pressure... it depends on how you communicate.”“We don’t wait on a breakdown to go to the gym, so why wait to maintain the relationship?”🕰️ Episode Chapters00:00 Introduction to Allison Bonilla 03:17 Transitioning from Psychotherapy to Coaching04:30 Understanding Professional Life Strategy07:56 The Distinction Between Therapy and Coaching09:36 Recognizing Clinical Depression11:53 Stigmas Surrounding Mental Health14:28 Mental Health in the African American Community16:54 The Connection Between Mental and Physical Health19:10 The Role of Faith in Mental Health22:30 Navigating the Path to Seeking Help26:03 Allison's Journey into Therapy29:29 Relationship Coaching for Artists and Entrepreneurs32:47 Understanding Relationship Dynamics33:39 The Shift from Counseling to Coaching35:20 Identifying Relationship Challenges37:43 The Importance of Communication in Relationships39:22 Proactive Relationship Maintenance40:51 Engaging Conversations for Connection44:13 Navigating Long-Distance Relationships47:43 The Value of Commitment and Communication49:29 Balancing Careers and Relationships55:11 The Role of Communication in Relationship Success58:52 Navigating Relationship Insecurities01:03:37 Balancing Family and Career01:10:07 The Role of a Professional Life Strategist01:16:11 Communicating for Success01:22:10 The Importance of Community and Connection01:27:19 Introduction to the Podcast and Community Engagement🌐 Connect with Allison Bonilla🌍 Website: https://www.allisonbcoaching.com🌱 Garden of Growth Program: https://www.allisonbcoaching.com/garden-of-growth-2025.html📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/allisonbcoaching/▶️ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@allisonbcoaching💼 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/allison-bonilla-lcsw/🚀 Connect with Trea Da Fit Artist💪🏾 Coaching & Training: https://nextworldfitness.com🎨 Creative Network: https://fit-masterpiece-collabs.mn.co/🎧 More Episodes: https://creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/sculptncreate🎤 Be a Guest on the PodcastArtists, entertainers, creatives, or wellness pros with a story to share?👉🏾 Apply here: https://pocketsuite.io/form/dxOo
