CCM: You also have a passion for woman facing insurmountable odds. How have you had to overcome the odds in your career?
DR:
I really do. Seeing anyone, particularly women, dealing with hurts and circumstances stacked against them really hits me on a deeper level and pulls at my heart. For women, we are not only facing the odds or predicament of whatever circumstance we’re facing, we’re facing the full brunt of the entrenched thinking both in society and often times ingrained within our own selves from upbringing about women. So for women, we face additional barriers which requires additional recognition, strength and navigation.

Everyone has a story, and I’m no different. The journey of life can really take some twists and turns that require you to transform what you think and what you do all the way down to what you believe. I’ve had to do this not only to overcome odds in my career, but just overall in my life. Being willing to grow, expand, pivot and transform is a grace that has enabled me to smile and keep going no matter what. When I’ve encountered things that could and maybe should literally break me or at the least, halt me I’ve used this transform and transcend approach which is how I’m able to get this 4th recording out—the odds were stacked, but I am changed and grace abounds!

CCM: What would you say to someone just starting out their career?
DR:
I’d say although things may not work the way you think they should but, they do work so be sure to trust God and the process even when it doesn’t look good and to always remember that this is a journey and not a race. Walk this journey with resolve, love, care, purpose, passion, compassion and authenticity.
