Sarah Jakes Roberts was recently named the successor to one of the most influential churches in the country – stepping into the role held by her father, Bishop T.D. Jakes. But the path wasn’t simple. It was marked with detours and storms she had to survive to get here.

On this episode of the My Legacy podcast, Sarah sits down with her mother, Serita Jakes, and co-hosts Martin Luther King III, Arndrea Waters King, Marc Kielburger, and Craig Kielburger, for a deeply personal conversation about overcoming life’s biggest challenges and the women who shape our lives.

From teenage motherhood and depression, to leading a movement for millions of women, Sarah shares what it means to walk boldly into a calling that once terrified her.

Unforgettable lessons from this conversation include:
How to navigate the “messy middle” without losing your faith or your fire
How to honor where you came from without staying stuck there
Why power doesn’t have to look like control—and how women are redefining it
The one mindset shift that helped Sarah step out of shame and into authority

Ditte Young is one of the world's most celebrated animal communicators and telepaths — a trained psychotherapist who has taught tens of thousands of people how to connect beyond words. 

When Ditte's son Philip was born blind and autistic, doctors dismissed her concerns as the anxiety of a first-time mom. She trusted her intuition anyway, and in doing so, developed the gift that would become her life's work. She joins hosts Martin Luther King III, Arndrea Waters King, and Marc Kielburger alongside her longtime friend and witness to it all, Pindar Kaur. Together, they reveal how: 
Every child and animal who "acts out" is simply asking to be understood 
Animals mirror our inner world — and the behavioral issue is rarely theirs 
Trusting your intuition isn't soft — it's the bravest thing a parent can do 
The seventh sense isn't reserved for a gifted few — it's available to all of us 
Your greatest teacher may come in a form you never expected

JJ Virgin is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, triple board-certified nutrition expert, and the founder of the Aging Powerfully movement, whose podcast has surpassed 22 million downloads. For four decades she has been fighting the fitness industry's obsession with scale weight ... and winning.

Together, they reveal how: 
Muscle is a pharmacy inside your body — and losing it is the real health crisis 
94% of Americans are metabolically unhealthy because we've been measuring the wrong things 
One bad night of sleep makes you insulin resistant and hungrier by morning 
Menopause is a biological upgrade 
Midlife isn't about slowing down; it's about deciding who you want to become

In loving memory of Gloria Steinem, March 25, 1934 – September 2, 2026 

Originally aired August 19, 2025 

Feminist icon, journalist, and Ms. Magazine co-founder Gloria Steinem spent nearly a century making life more fair — and she never stopped. In this intimate conversation recorded before her passing, Gloria opens up about the moments that defined her life, from an unconventional childhood to the 1963 March on Washington, and how each shaped her lifelong fight for equality. 

With her closest collaborator and friend Amy Richards, Gloria joins hosts Martin Luther King III, Arndrea Waters King, Marc Kielburger, and Craig Kielburger in a conversation we are honored to share with the world now more than ever. 

Together, they reveal how: 
Hope isn't wishful thinking — it's a plan for change 
Your enemies say as much about your values as your friends do 
Diversity is a gift, not an obligation 

Gloria's fire burns on. Don't miss an episode — subscribe now to catch new episodes every Tuesday.
