Healed people don't act like that with Queen Sheba

In this episode of Conversations with Coach LA, we continue our Reclaim series with a transformative conversation on faith, healing, and collective freedom.

Joining Coach LA is the legendary Queen Sheba—a 2x Grammy®-nominated spoken word poet, author, professor, and activist—whose voice has ignited stages from the Apollo to international festivals. Sheba brings her truth, artistry, and lived experience to the mic as we explore how faith can help us break generational cycles of pain and trauma.

This conversation dives into Sheba’s newest project, A Hurricane in Heels: Healed People Don’t Act Like That, and how spoken word becomes both a personal healing practice and a collective call to action.
