  • From Warehouse to Tech CEO at 23 Jalen Moore on Purpose, Mindset, and Building Trippy Media Without
    Jan 23 2026

    In this powerful special edition of Breaking Impossibilities, recorded live at the Podcast Summit in Atlanta, we sit down with Jalen Moore, CEO and founder of Tryppy Media and host of the Welcome to the Trip podcast.

    Jalen’s journey is raw, intentional, and deeply relatable. Starting in warehouse jobs with no college degree and no clear roadmap, he bet on himself, invested in community, and leaned fully into purpose. Today, at just 23 years old, he’s building a media brand that bridges industries, connects creators, and redefines what success looks like when you move with vision instead of validation.

    This conversation goes far beyond business. Jalen breaks down the real meaning behind “The Trip,” revealing how it stands for The Real You Prevails, and how authenticity, energy, and mindset can collapse timelines people think require years, degrees, or permission. He opens up about anxiety, introversion, leadership, spiritual growth, and why staying calm in chaos is the ultimate competitive advantage.

    We also dive into the reality of building while still working a 9–5, the importance of community over credentials, and how intention can turn uncertainty into alignment. This episode is for the dreamers, the builders, the ones who feel behind, and anyone questioning whether their background disqualifies them from greatness.

    If you’ve ever felt boxed in by where you started, this episode will remind you that the impossible is often just untapped potential waiting for action.

  • From Abuse, Addiction & Homelessness to Peace The Power of Breathwork
    Jan 12 2026

    This powerful episode of Breaking Impossibilities dives deep into mental health, trauma healing, addiction recovery, grief, forgiveness, and the transformative power of breathwork.

    At 74 years young, Ayo Handy-Kendi—Certified Breathologist, founder of Positive Energy Works, lifelong community organizer, and host of Sage and Baby Boomers and Those Who Love Us—shares her extraordinary real-life transformation. Ayo opens up about surviving childhood abuse, homelessness, substance addiction, the murder of her 17-year-old son, and the loss of three husbands, while carrying decades of suppressed pain she didn’t fully understand until later in life.

    In this conversation, Ayo explains how trauma causes the body to hold the breath, how suppressed emotions live in the subconscious, and how intentional breathwork helped her release pain, stop drinking and drugging, forgive her abuser and her son’s killer, and reclaim peace of mind. We explore the connection between breathing, the brainstem, emotional regulation, mitochondria health, mental clarity, and healing trauma, as well as why so many people struggle with brain fog, stress, anxiety, and emotional shutdown without realizing their breath is the root.

    This episode speaks directly to anyone navigating mental health challenges, addiction recovery, unresolved trauma, grief, spiritual healing, or self-belief, and serves as a reminder that it is never too late to heal, grow, and live fully. Ayo’s story is living proof that when we breathe better, we live better—and when we believe again, we break impossibilities.

    🎧 Listen, breathe, heal, and remember: you are possible.

  • Lacing Up Faith Over Fear David Hartman’s Journey Through Art & Education
    Dec 22 2025

    In this special Podcast Summit edition of Breaking Impossibilities, host Justin Townsend sits down with David Hartman, creator of the Lace Em Up Podcast and founder of Davidedo Designs.

    Born and raised in Houston, Texas, David was diagnosed with dyslexia in 5th grade and told he would never graduate high school. Instead of quitting, he leaned into art — the one thing that gave him hope. That decision led him to earn two college degrees, a master’s degree, and build a career spanning 20 years in education, including serving as a Vice President at a community college.

    David now uses his platform to spotlight artists, creatives, and entrepreneurs, sharing real stories about fear, faith, creativity, and believing in yourself when the odds are stacked against you.

    This episode is about:

    Turning fear into fuel

    Why art can save lives

    Breaking labels placed on you as a child

    Faith over fear & action over excuses

    Why “creating is problem solving”

    If you’ve ever been told you weren’t enough — this one’s for you.

  • Start a Podcast With Just Your Phone | Emotional Discipline Is Gangsta – Jay Hill’s Blueprint
    Dec 15 2025
    In this powerful Podcast Summit edition of Breaking Impossibilities, Justin sits down with @MrJayHill Baltimore-raised podcast host, media personality, and creator of The Jay Hill Podcast. This episode is packed with real gems for anyone coming from the trenches, navigating entrepreneurship, or looking to start, grow, and monetize a podcast the right way without gatekeeping, fake guru talk, or expensive setups. Jay Hill breaks down how he went from growing up in Baltimore, getting fired from multiple radio stations, and learning hard lessons around emotional discipline, to building a respected podcast platform in Atlanta — all by staying consistent, staying solid, and staying for the people. 🎙️ START A PODCAST WITH JUST YOUR PHONE One of the biggest takeaways from this episode is Jay’s real blueprint: Start a Podcast With Just Your Phone: Jay Hill’s Blueprint for Consistency, Monetization & Growth. Jay explains why you don’t need a camera, studio, or fancy gear to get started just a phone, a message, and the discipline to show up. He encourages new podcasters to record 10–20 episodes on their phone first to prove consistency before investing in equipment. 💎 GEMS DROPPED IN THIS EPISODE: Throughout the episode, Jay Hill drops real, actionable gems rooted in lived experience — from growing up in the Baltimore trenches and how adversity builds character, to breaking down the difference between a street mentality and an entrepreneur mindset. He explains why emotional discipline is the real “gangsta” move for men, how fighting, ego, and reacting emotionally cost him major opportunities, and why “not being played with” actually means walking away, staying free, and being able to provide. Jay shares his transition from radio to podcasting after getting fired, how he started his podcast with just $1,700, two mics, and belief, and why audio matters more than video when starting out. He also gives practical game on cleaning up phone audio using tools like Adobe Audio Enhancer, monetizing a podcast early without waiting on YouTube, approaching local businesses for $25–$50 sponsorships, and turning a simple podcast setup into paid media production work. Above all, Jay makes it clear why he refuses to gatekeep information, believes the next generation of podcasters should be better than him, and what Breaking Impossibilities truly means — overcoming adversity, trusting your vision, and doing the work to rise above where you started. 🚀 HELPING PEOPLE START PODCASTS This episode reflects the heart of Breaking Impossibilities — helping people turn pain into purpose and start podcasts that actually impact lives. If you’ve been sitting on a story, a message, or an idea, this conversation proves: You don’t need permission. You don’t need perfect gear. You don’t need a big budget. You just need to start and stay consistent.

  • I was holding my baby in one hand, writing my story with the other - Nella’s Story
    Nov 17 2025

    In this episode of the Breaking Impossibilities Podcast, Justin Townsend sits down with Nella Coleman a powerhouse community builder, author, and mother whose story defines resilience.

    Nella went from being kicked out of college, fired while pregnant, and abandoned with a “good luck” text, to building thriving online communities and helping creators turn audiences into family. When life stripped away her comfort and security, faith became her strategy.

    “I was holding my baby in one hand, writing with the other, crying and telling God, ‘I don’t know what to do.’ And ever since that day, it’s been nothing but blessings.”

    Through heartbreak, domestic violence, and loss, she discovered that God uses the broken pieces to build purpose. Her book, Crooked Sticks Draw Straight Lines, reveals how every detour and disappointment prepared her for destiny.

    This conversation hits deeper than business or success, it’s about faith, motherhood, survival, and rebirth. Justin and Nella unpack what it truly means to break impossibilities: turning pain into platforms, failure into faith, and fear into freedom.

    If you’ve ever felt like quitting, this episode reminds you why you can’t. You’re still here for a reason.
