What if the key to your next chapter was hidden in your first?
In Part 1 of this raw, two-part conversation, host Dwayne Barnes sits down with the powerful and unfiltered Fee King—actor, writer, NAACP-nominated solo performer, and the living blueprint of what it means to rise after 50.
Before the coaching, before the spotlight, before the reinvention… there was a little girl who witnessed the unthinkable:
Her mother being shot by a boyfriend
Being taken to doctor’s offices to fake symptoms for street prescriptions
Growing up with Nostradamus predictions that convinced her the world would end in 1999
And yet, even through that chaos, Fee held a desire to do better and be better.
In this first half of her journey, she shares the pivotal point that changed everything: the day her mother passed — and the compassion, patience, and power that awakened inside her afterward.
💥 Topics in Part 1:
Childhood trauma, confusion, and survival
Spiritual identity, self-worth, and early pivots
The hidden cost of being the “strong one”
How compassion becomes a superpower after loss
This episode isn’t just storytelling — it’s soul work.
And it’s only the beginning.
