| 10/18/26 | Living ALOUD with Lucky Daye | Two-time GRAMMY Award winner Lucky Daye joins Crystal Renee Hayslett for a conversation about freedom, emotional growth, creativity, and what comes after you’ve already proven that your gift works. With more than 2 billion global streams and a new album, ALOUD!, Lucky is entering one of his most expressive chapters yet. In this episode, he opens up about what living without permission means to him, how he knows when to trust his vision, and how vulnerability continues to shape the way he writes about love. He and Crystal also talk about staying focused when comparison is everywhere, resetting when things don’t go as planned, and what still feels exciting after the accolades. This is a conversation about freedom, self-awareness, vulnerability, and growth.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information. | 43m 17s | ||||||
| 10/11/26 | After The Love Story with Lauren Speed | Lauren Speed-Hamilton’s love story may have started in a way the world watched unfold, but the life she’s built since then has required a different kind of faith, growth, and intention. In this episode, Crystal sits down with Lauren to talk about becoming a mother after years of waiting, making room for joy and grief at the same time, and what marriage looks like years after the cameras stop rolling. This is a conversation about love, identity, and answered prayers—and what it means to live fully inside the life you once hoped for.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information. | 45m 33s | ||||||
| 10/4/26 | Come As You Are, But Don’t Stay There with Dante Pride | Dante Pride has built a life at the intersection of realness, music, ministry, marriage, and faith. In this episode, Crystal sits down with the artist and pastor to talk about what happens when visibility increases and why grace should never become permission to stay the same. They get into growing alongside your spouse, protecting what matters as success grows, the tension between faith and fear, and what real transformation looks like when God is still working on you. This is a conversation about grace and growth — and the courage to let God change you without losing who He called you to be.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information. | 1h 04m 53s | ||||||
| 9/27/26 | Culture, Calling, And Becoming with Imani Ellis | Imani Ellis has built more than an event—she’s created a space where culture, creativity, and community can grow together. In this Season premiere episode, Crystal sits down with the CultureCon founder to talk about what it means to evolve something that’s already successful, how faith shapes the way she leads, and why building something meaningful should never cost you your identity. They get into the woman behind the work, the responsibility that comes with creating for a community, and how Imani is learning to make room for her own growth along the way. This is a conversation about culture, calling, and becoming, and the work of staying grounded while the vision keeps getting bigger.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information. | 49m 38s | ||||||
| 9/20/26 | Petty Prayers, Real Healing | In the Season 12 finale of Keep It Positive, Sweetie, Crystal sits down with bestselling author, speaker, and faith leader Nona Jones for an honest conversation about what healing really looks like when forgiveness doesn’t immediately take the hurt away. Inspired by her new book, The Power of Petty Prayers, Nona opens up about trauma, rejection, betrayal, anger, boundaries, and the difference between saying you forgive and actually doing the deeper work of healing. This conversation is about faith without pretending, healing without rushing, and learning how to tell God the truth about what still hurts.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information. | 49m 53s | ||||||
| 9/13/26 | Okay Sweeties, Let’s Talk | In this special episode of Keep It Positive, Sweetie, Crystal turns the mic around and answers questions straight from the Sweeties. Nothing is off the table as she opens up about the woman she’s becoming, love, boundaries, and discernment. This episode is honest, fun, and a personal check-in about faith, growth, love, purpose, and becoming.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information. | 38m 33s | ||||||
