No, We Can't Agree to Disagree on Politics
In this episode, I explain the difference between human rights, personal beliefs, and politics using a simple framework: a shared apartment building.Human rights are the foundation.Personal beliefs live inside your apartment.Politics is building management.The confusion between these layers is why so many political conversations break down.And why some disagreements aren’t really disagreements at all.—🖤 JOIN THE SUBJECTIVE COMMUNITY:→ 🎧 Listen on Spotify/Apple: https://beacons.ai/subjectivepod → 📰 All of my fav sources: https://beacons.ai/thesubjectivepod/sources→ 📝 Read the newsletter/Substack: https://thesubjectivepod.substack.com/ → 📲 IG / TikTok: @TheSubjectivePod→ 📸 IG @_DonyelleMurray → 📥 Business: subjective@donyellemurray.com✨ Reviews help us grow and reach more listeners.

How to Stay Informed in 2026 (Without Losing Your Mind) : A Step-by-Step Guide
Most of us were never taught how to actually stay informed, we just learned to react to whatever showed up in our feeds. This episode breaks down what being informed actually means (versus what social media has trained us to think it means), why the current information landscape is designed to keep you reactive instead of clear, and how to build a sustainable information practice that doesn't wreck your nervous system. We're talking about the difference between information and noise, how to vet sources without becoming a media scholar, and why preparedness looks nothing like constant vigilance. This isn't about consuming more, it's about processing better.

(Part 2) You Are My Lil Friend: Lessons From My Mom on Survival, Sacrifice & Showing Up
What happens when you’re still figuring out who you are, but you already have kids depending on you?In this continuation of one of the most personal conversations yet, Donyelle and her mother go even deeper into the realities of young motherhood — the unspoken fears, the resilience it demanded, and the lessons that only come with time and reflection.In part two, her mom shares the aftermath of becoming a mother at 16: the ongoing challenges of balancing survival with growth, how faith and community continued to hold her up, and the moments she had to choose between her own becoming and showing up for her kids. Together, they wrestle with the complicated truths of “growing up together” — what that looked like in practice, what it cost, and how it shaped both of them.This isn’t just the rest of the story; it’s an unfiltered look at resilience, healing, and the generational strength that continues to ripple forward.—🖤 JOIN THE SUBJECTIVE COMMUNITY:→ 🎧 Listen on Spotify/Apple→ 📝 Read the newsletter/Substack→ 📲 IG / TikTok: @TheSubjectivePod→ 📸 IG @_DonyelleMurray → 📥 Business: subjective@donyellemurray.com✨ Reviews help us grow and reach more listeners, thank you for your support!

(Part 1) You Are My Lil Friend: Lessons From My Mom on Survival, Sacrifice & Showing Up
What happens when you’re still figuring out who you are, but you already have kids depending on you?In this episode of the Subjective podcast, Donyelle sits down with her mother for one of the most personal conversations yet, an honest reflection and real story of what it looks like when a mother is still figuring herself out while raising kids at the same time. They reflect on young motherhood: the fear, the strength, and the survival tactics no one prepares you for. Her mom opens up about telling her family she was pregnant at 16, the relief of having her own mother as a support system, and the constant tension between growing into womanhood while raising children. She shares moments where she felt unequipped, how community and faith carried her, and the quiet strength it took to show up for her kids every day, even when life behind closed doors was crumbling.Together, they unpack what it meant to “grow up together”.This isn’t just a story about motherhood; it’s about survival, resilience, and the complicated ways love and strength get passed down from one generation to the next.—🖤 JOIN THE SUBJECTIVE COMMUNITY:→ 🎧 Listen on Spotify/Apple→ 📝 Read the newsletter/Substack→ 📲 IG / TikTok: @TheSubjectivePod→ 📸 IG @_DonyelleMurray → 📥 Business: subjective@donyellemurray.com✨ Reviews help us grow and reach more listeners, thank you for your support!

Check On Your Strong Friends
In this episode, I’m unpacking what it means to be the “strong friend.” The one who’s always checking in but never checked on. The one who performs strength so well, no one realizes she’s falling apart.I share personal stories of how I learned to suppress my emotions, why I thought crying made me weak, and how I built an identity around being dependable and “fine”, even when I wasn’t. I open up about the quiet expectations that formed in childhood, how I used to “practice” being strong in unhealthy ways, and the turning point where I realized: I never wanted to be strong. I just didn’t have another option.This episode is a love letter to every strong friend who’s tired, and a wake-up call to the people who never ask how she’s doing.—🖤 JOIN THE SUBJECTIVE COMMUNITY:🎧 Listen on Spotify/Apple: https://beacons.ai/subjectivepod📝 Read the newsletter/Substack: https://thesubjectivepod.substack.com/ 📲 IG / TikTok: @TheSubjectivePod📸 IG @_DonyelleMurray 📥 Business: subjective@donyellemurray.com🔗 LINKS + MENTIONS: Community Receipts: https://beacons.ai/thesubjectivepod/receiptsresourcesHave a burning question?

Too Loud, Too Soon: The Cost of Being Yourself
They used to say I “talked back.” Now I talk for a living.In this episode, I’m sharing what it’s really like to be the person who always speaks up—even when it’s easier (and safer) to stay quiet. From being labeled a big mouth as a kid to building a career rooted in communication, I’m unpacking the cost and the calling of radical authenticity.What does it really cost to be yourself in a world that rewards performance? For me, it meant being misunderstood, mislabeled, and left out. It meant being called outspoken, dramatic, opinionated, loud, sometimes all in the same breath. But it also meant building a life where I could finally own the very thing I was once punished for: my voice.This episode is personal. I’m reflecting on how I tried to shrink myself, how I failed at being anyone but me, and how I finally realized that the thing they tried to silence was actually my gift. —🖤 JOIN THE SUBJECTIVE COMMUNITY 🎧 Listen & subscribe 📬 Newsletter📲 IG / TikTok: @TheSubjectivePod📸IG @_DonyelleMurray 📥 Business: subjective@donyellemurray.com📚📰 Receipts & Resources—Have a burning question?
