Empower Hour with Lady J

Empower Hour with Host Jodi “Lady J” Watkins

Welcome to Empower Hour with Lady J (formerly The Jodi Watkins Show and originally Breaking Barriers Now Podcast). This is where resilience meets real life—faith, healing, leadership, and the kind of transformation you can actually apply.

About the Show

Empower Hour is a space for honest conversations with people who have been through something and chose to rise anyway. We talk about what it really takes to push through adversity, rebuild your life, and step into purpose with courage and clarity.

What You’ll Hear

Real interviews with real people who have overcome hard seasons and found strength on the other side
Practical takeaways you can use right away—mindset shifts, strategies, and habits that help you move forward
Faith in motion, because belief matters, but so does action

Why Listen

No fluff. No performance. Just truth, encouragement, and perspective from lived experience. If you’re in a season of rebuilding, stretching, healing, or stepping into your next level, you’re in the right place.

Aliya Fitz-El is resilient, strong, and faithful. She knows she is purposed through God. Her story will inspire you to fight for your rights and stand firm on your purpose no matter what the battle holds.

Aliya's story is an enlightening journey of using our pain to fulfill our purpose. She started a Ministry called Divine Essence Healing Ministry, which focuses on women veterans and MST survivors. She also partners with Pure Romance, where she teaches others how to lead with love.

As many of us are, Aliya is still going through tough times and could have quit long ago. However, when your purpose becomes bigger than your excuses, you will keep going no matter what. I am grateful to know Aliya and be part of her journey! Make sure you follow and encourage her along her journey, and allow us to encourage you on yours. Thank you for tuning in! Make sure to like, share, and follow the podcast!
