| She Discovered She Was a Queen at 48: The Incredible Story of Queen Diambi | 26 Aug 2026 | 00:32:58 | |
When a Queen Reclaims Her Identity and Serves Her People What happens when you discover at 48 years old that you were born into royalty and that your life may have been preparing you for a purpose far greater than you ever imagined? In this powerful episode of the Light Up Your Life Podcast, Samantha Peters sits down with Her Majesty Queen Diambi Kabatusuila, Queen of the Bakwa Luntu people of the Democratic Republic of Congo, for an unforgettable conversation about identity, resilience, purpose, leadership, and service. Queen Diambi shares the remarkable story of growing up between cultures, navigating major personal challenges, reconnecting with her Congolese roots, and unexpectedly discovering her royal lineage. She opens up about initially resisting the responsibility of becoming Queen and how she ultimately realized that her people saw a strength and leadership within her that she had not yet recognized in herself. But for Queen Diambi, royalty isn't about a title, it's about service. She shares how she has devoted her leadership to restoring pride in African identity and creating meaningful change through humanitarian efforts, including providing clean water, supporting orphaned children, helping children receive critical medical care, and advocating for communities around the world. Samantha and Queen Diambi also dive into what it means for women to step fully into their power, why true leadership comes from the heart, the importance of resilience through life's darkest seasons, and the wisdom behind one simple message: Never give up. In This Episode, You'll Hear About: "Serve who is in front of you." "It's the God light that we all are lit with." "Never give up." 👑 Connect With Her Majesty Queen Diambi Continue following Queen Diambi's mission, humanitarian work, and efforts to uplift communities throughout the Democratic Republic of Congo and beyond.

| Homeless & Addicted to Building a Legacy with Jonnie Parsons | 19 Aug 2026 | 00:41:18 | |
What does it really take to completely rewrite your life? On this episode of the Light Up Your Life Podcast, Samantha Peters sits down with Jonnie Parsons, entrepreneur, wellness coach, and founder of Discipline & Legacy, for a raw conversation about addiction, homelessness, faith, forgiveness, discipline, and redemption. Jonnie opens up about growing up in an environment where drug use was normalized, chasing success and material things in an attempt to fill what he self-forgiveness, was essential to his healing One of the biggest themes throughout Jonnie's story is that your past may explain where you've been, but it doesn't have to determine where you're going. Transformation required Jonnie to stop waiting for his circumstances to change and begin changing the choices he made every day. Faith gave him a new foundation. Forgiveness allowed him to release his past. Discipline helped him build his future. And purpose gave him something bigger than himself to live for. As Jonnie shares in this episode: “My drug of choice is more.” And when it came to finally forgiving himself: “If He died on the cross for my sins, if He can forgive me, why can't I forgive me?” This episode is a powerful reminder that rock bottom doesn't have to be the end of your story. It can become the place where you decide to write a new one.

| Permanent Success Is Built on Hardship and Temporary Failure | 03 Jun 2026 | 00:09:42 | |
In this deeply personal solo episode, Samantha Peters opens up about one of the biggest mindset shifts she's ever experienced after reading an original edition from the Napoleon Hill Archives. She shares why adversity may be your greatest advantage, how struggle reveals strengths you never knew you possessed, and why the challenges you're facing right now may be preparing you for a future beyond what you can currently imagine. If you've ever felt like life has been harder for you than those around you, this episode will remind you that your story is not your weakness, it's your greatest source of strength. Main Topics
Memorable Quotes "Develop strength out of resistance. The greater the resistance, the greater your strength." — Napoleon Hill "The most dangerous handicap with which any child could be surrounded is the handicap of money, provided it is used to relieve the child of struggle." — Napoleon Hill "The greatest service that can be rendered any person on earth is the service which causes that person to rely upon himself." — Napoleon Hill "What I once viewed as my greatest disadvantage became one of my greatest blessings." — Samantha Peters "If everything disappeared tomorrow, I could rebuild it because struggle taught me how." — Samantha Peters Key Takeaway The very thing you think is holding you back may actually be preparing you for the life you're meant to build. Struggle develops strength. Adversity reveals character. And permanent success is often built on hardship, resilience, and temporary failure.

With over 25 years of corporate leadership experience and a background in psychology, Lena blends neuroscience, energetics, and practical strategy to help clients shift identity, reprogram limiting beliefs, and create lasting transformation. This conversation goes beyond mindset, it explores how your energy directly impacts your income, opportunities, relationships, and overall life experience. Lena breaks down why success is less about doing more and more about becoming the version of you that naturally attracts more. In This Episode, We Cover:
Key Takeaway: Your income, relationships, and opportunities are not random they are a reflection of your internal energy, identity, and subconscious programming. When you shift your frequency and release outdated beliefs, your external world naturally begins to reorganize around your new state of being. In this episode, we explored Lena’s journey from academic struggle to manifestation coach, how energy drives business success, why income plateaus are rooted in identity rather than strategy, and how subconscious and generational beliefs quietly shape financial outcomes. We also broke down practical tools like grounding, music, and water affirmations to elevate your energy, the importance of releasing old identities, and how calibration, not balance is the key to sustainable success. Finally, we explored how frequency, faith, and the law of assumption influence what you attract and experience in life.

| Wealth, Wills, and Winning with Jessica Lynn Silva | 12 Aug 2026 | 00:26:39 | |
What happens to everything you’ve worked for if you don’t have a plan in place?
In this episode of Light Up Your Life, Samantha Peters sits down with Jessica Lynn Silva, Esq., an award-winning Florida estate planning and probate attorney, internationally bestselling author, speaker, coach, and founder of the Law Office of Jessica Lynn Silva, PLLC.
Jessica makes estate planning easy to understand and explains why it isn’t something reserved for the ultra-wealthy—or something you should wait until later in life to think about. From wills and trusts to life insurance, probate, prenups, and financial literacy, Jessica shares practical ways to protect yourself, your family, and the wealth you’re working so hard to build.
She also opens up about her personal journey from becoming a single mother at 18 to building a successful legal career spanning more than two decades, and how those experiences shaped her passion for helping families protect what matters most.
In This Episode, You’ll Learn:
Why estate planning should begin as early as age 18 and the foundational documents every adult should consider, including powers of attorney and healthcare directives.
The difference between a will and a trust, and when a trust may make sense for families with children, blended families, multiple properties, or assets in different states.
What probate actually is, why it can become time-consuming and expensive, and how proper planning may simplify the process for your loved ones.
What can happen when someone dies without a will or trust and how state intestacy laws determine who inherits their assets.
How life insurance can provide important financial protection for spouses, children, and families after an unexpected loss.
Why building wealth is only half the equation—and why protecting and transferring wealth deserves just as much attention.
The role financial literacy plays in creating lasting generational wealth and why earning or inheriting money doesn’t automatically mean you’ll keep it.
Jessica’s perspective on wealth-building vehicles such as real estate, precious metals, businesses, LLCs, and selective investments.
Why prenups and postnups can be practical financial-planning tools, particularly when significant assets are involved.
How Jessica’s book, Wealth, Wills, and Winning, combines her personal story with lessons on building, protecting, and ultimately transferring wealth.
This conversation is a reminder that creating a legacy isn’t simply about how much money you make. It’s about intentionally protecting what you build and making sure the people you love aren’t left trying to figure everything out when you’re gone.

| From Survival Mode to Sustainable Success with Valeriya Hjertenaes | 26 Mar 2026 | 00:41:15 | |
In this powerful episode of the Light Up Your Life Podcast, we sit down with Valeriya Hjertenaes, a PhD-level expert in neurodiversity and sustainable leadership who is redefining how we think about human performance, resilience, and success. As a neurodivergent leader with lived experience of OCD, Valeriya brings a unique and deeply insightful perspective on turning what many see as “differences” into powerful strategic advantages. With over 15 years of global leadership experience across multiple sectors and countries, she shares how high performers can move beyond survival mode and step into sustainable, aligned success. In this conversation, we explore the hidden patterns behind the high-achiever identity and how success is often driven by pressure, fear, or the need to prove oneself. Valeriya breaks down how to recognize these patterns, heal them, and shift into a more empowered way of living and leading. We also dive into the idea of being told you’re “too much” too emotional, too intense, too driven and how those very traits can become your greatest strengths when understood and channeled correctly. This episode reframes cognitive differences as powerful assets in leadership, decision-making, and innovation. You’ll learn how to identify when you’re operating in survival mode, even if everything looks successful on the outside, and what it truly takes to transition into a more sustainable, fulfilling way of achieving your goals. Valeriya also shares insights on building resilience, maintaining hope in high-pressure environments, and navigating complexity with clarity and confidence. This episode is for anyone who has ever felt different, overwhelmed, or stuck in the cycle of constant pressure and is ready to step into a more aligned, powerful version of themselves. ✨ What We Cover:

| What Doctors Don’t Tell You About Aging, Implants, and Pharmaceuticals with Andi Lew | 08 Oct 2025 | 00:52:29 | |
In this episode of the Light Up Your Life Podcast, wellness expert, author, and TV host Andi Lew joins us to share her inspiring journey from Australia to the United States and her mission to help others live with vitality and purpose. With over 30 years in the health and wellness industry, Andi opens up about the profound lessons she’s learned along the way—discussing everything from chiropractic care and holistic healing to the challenges of medical gaslighting and the importance of trusting your intuition when it comes to your health. She vulnerably shares her personal experience with breast implant illness, the struggle of finding the right medical support, and how this journey led her to redefine what true beauty and wellness mean. Andi emphasizes the importance of aging gracefully, embracing authenticity, and empowering women to celebrate their scars and stories as symbols of strength rather than shame. Throughout the conversation, Andi and the hosts explore how pharmaceutical dependency, especially during pregnancy and postpartum, can have lasting impacts—and why returning to natural, holistic health practices is key to long-term wellness. From grounding in nature to aligning with your divine path, Andi reminds us that healing is not just physical—it’s emotional, spiritual, and deeply connected to self-forgiveness and service. Tune in for a powerful conversation that will inspire you to take ownership of your health, redefine beauty on your own terms, and live in alignment with your higher purpose.
