Short on time, but big on True Crime. On a recent episode of the podcast hunting for answers,

I highlighted the story of 19 year old Lashay Dunjeev. But she never knocked on that door.

She never made it inside. And that text message would be the last time anyone would ever hear from her.

Welcome back to the Overcome for Podcasts. I'm your host, Jennifer Lopez. Thank you guys so
spk_0
much for choosing to tune in and listen to this episode wherever you guys are at. I am honored
spk_0
to have you guys here to be watching and listening. We are doing an updated Q&A, okay? It has been
spk_0
a minute. I love doing these now and then to see where you guys is. Head is at if you guys have
spk_0
any questions about what I'm doing on social media or my personal life. Oh, wow, we are going to
spk_0
make a matcha. Comment down below if you are a matcha girl or a coffee girl. I'm both, but lately,
spk_0
I have really just been into my matcha kick. So actually, I need to turn on this water and once it's
spk_0
boiled, I will start the process. I already have like my cup of hot milk in here. I like doing
spk_0
them hot because they just, I feel like they feel better to me. Anyways, okay, so while that's
spk_0
heating up, we are going to get into these questions. I asked you guys to ask me questions on
spk_0
Snapchat, Instagram, my broadcast channel. If you guys are not in that broadcast channel,
spk_0
make sure you go ahead and join. I would love to be, I would love for you guys to be a part of
spk_0
that family there. And we're just going to jump right into it. We have dating questions. We have
spk_0
weight loss questions. We have faith questions, which I'm all excited for. Okay, so I think
spk_0
one of the most obvious questions here because there's like a bunch of like the same one is weight loss.
spk_0
What's the tip and tricks? So I just did an episode about finding and maintaining motivation.
spk_0
Watch that first. Then second step is really just getting to it, getting into the gym, really staying
spk_0
locked in and focused at least for me. I feel like it has just helped my mental health. It's helped my
spk_0
everyday life, the way I feel. Something that I really enjoy. I love doing. Eating healthy.
spk_0
I've turned away from processed foods. I know it's something a little bit difficult, but it is
spk_0
something so simple and so easy. I've turned to whole foods, so a lot of just fruits and vegetables
spk_0
and proteins. And yeah, you just got to stay motivated. You got to stay locked in and you got to
spk_0
really just keep pushing and remember why you're doing it. What's one thing you've learned about
spk_0
love that didn't come from a relationship? That is a great question. Okay, I think that love requires
spk_0
boundaries. Even with friends and family, it teaches you to like say no and still care
spk_0
deeply, but still honoring and loving yourself at the same time. So if anything, love has taught me
spk_0
boundaries. Have you ever been afraid to trust God with your love life? You guys are going to
spk_0
really deep this time. Oh my gosh, okay. I have because I feel like I've talked about it a lot
spk_0
on the podcast, but I haven't seen it for a hot minute and which I used to just, I feel like it
spk_0
was giving dust before, but now I'm kind of just over it and letting it enjoy my waiting season
spk_0
and enjoying this time of like, okay, I need to be better at certain things before I can add somebody
spk_0
onto my life onto something that's so important to me. I want to be whole. I want to be better,
spk_0
but trusting God in that process like knowing like, okay, knowing that God has something better
spk_0
for when that I have, because sometimes I do be getting bored, you guys. I've been getting bored
spk_0
and I just, you know, I want to do dumb things, but I don't. I do not. I fight the boredom and I just
spk_0
continue to trust God because surrendering feels like giving up control, but I know that if I don't
spk_0
force it, it's going to be so much better. So it's been the journey. It's been tough. What was your
spk_0
I made it moment with your podcast? I don't know. I feel like just the podcast and growth in general
spk_0
has really just pushed me to be like, wow, I'm still lucky to be able to do this. I'm still
spk_0
lucky to be able to talk and motivate people and to take people on this journey with me because
spk_0
if you've seen from season one, like the growth and where I was at has led me to where I'm at now
spk_0
and I'm so proud of myself and I'm proud of how far the podcast has come and all the guests that
spk_0
have been on the podcast. It's been a journey and it's been beautiful and I'm just grateful
spk_0
for that in general. Do you eventually plan to get more surgery for weight loss?
spk_0
Or why didn't you just get plastic surgery for weight loss? Okay. People love to be a little
spk_0
bit nosy about why didn't get this surgery or why I did or whatever, but this is why. One because
spk_0
surgery is expensive. Two, I want to be also proud of myself and be able to say that I did this
spk_0
without having to do surgery. Three, because I just didn't want to and four, I don't think that
spk_0
I plan on getting any other surgery. As of right now, I don't know maybe later maybe after I have
spk_0
kids who knows, like this is what I'm feeling right now, right now, no. But just a reminder, I have
spk_0
gotten like my tummy tuck, I've gotten BBL and the other, I've got my breast done.
spk_0
So I've done those things, but as far as like anything else for weight loss, like I'm happy with
spk_0
where I'm at now. Obviously it's still a journey and still things that I have to work on, but I'm
spk_0
happy. I'm happy with where I'm at. Alright, we're gonna go on a quick break and we'll be right back
spk_0
to answer more of your guys' questions. Welcome back you guys.
spk_0
Ooh, the pressure of social media on adolescents to maintain.
spk_0

At 19, Elena Sada believed she had found her calling.
spk_0
In the new season of Sacred Scandal, we pull back the curtain on a live built on devotion and
spk_0
deception. A man of God, Marcial Masiel, looked at Elena in the eye and promised her a life of
spk_0
purpose within the Legion of Christ. My name is Elena Sada and this is my story.
spk_0
Is the story of how I learned to hide, to cry, to survive and eventually how I got out?
spk_0
This season on Sacred Scandal hear the full story from the woman who lived it,
spk_0
witness the journey from the vowed follower to the terming survivor as Elena exposes the man
spk_0
behind the cloth and the system that protected him. Even the darkest secrets eventually find
spk_0
their way to the light. Listen to Sacred Scandal, the many secrets of Marcial Masiel as part of the
spk_0
Michael Tura Podcast Network on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get her podcasts.
spk_0
Better at protecting black women. My contribution is shining a light on our missing sisters
spk_0
and amplifying their disregarded stories. Stories like Tamika Anderson. As she drove toward Galvez,
spk_0
she was in contact with several people, talking on the phone as she made her way to what should have
spk_0
been a routine transaction. But Tamika never bought the car and she never returned home that day.
spk_0
One podcast, one mission, save our girls. Join the search as we explore the chilling cases
spk_0
of missing and murdered black women and girls. Listen to hunting for answers every week day
spk_0
on the Black Effect Podcast Network, iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.
spk_0
But the humility in knowing that life is this classroom that we should never graduate from
spk_0
is what is going to keep you growing and that's all that matters.
spk_0
World Mental Health Day is around the corner and on my podcast,
spk_0
Jess Hill with Dr. Jay, I dive into what it really means to care for your mind, body and spirit.
spk_0
From breaking generational patterns to building emotional capacity, healing is a journey and
spk_0
wholeness is the destination. I'm going to walk away feeling very healed and killing like,
spk_0
yes, I'm going to continue my healing journey and I'm going to get some keys from you.
spk_0
Listen to Jess Hill with Dr. Jay from the Black Effect Podcast Network on the iHeartRadio app,
spk_0
Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.
spk_0
Their beauty standard status. Do you still struggle with body image even now?
spk_0
Love that question, which is something that is like a great question because, yes,
spk_0
it's not like necessarily a destination body, like loving yourself and loving your body,
spk_0
but it's like a daily choice and daily decision that some days you have to make that choice
spk_0
to love yourself and it is so hard. Like I do deal with body dysmorphia, I do do waking up on
spk_0
the daily and looking in the mirror and not being happy with what I'm looking at.
spk_0
Some days I look bloated, some days I just don't look my best, but I have to remind myself of my
spk_0
worth and who I am and that I'm loved no matter what, but yes, I do deal with that and it is
spk_0
something that I'm working on till this day. And as far as like beauty standards and
spk_0
all that, like I again, I look at myself in the mirror and I'll remind myself like, okay,
spk_0
I have nieces, I have people that I want to inspire and have them look up to and remind them,
spk_0
but it's not just how you fell on the outside, it's what you feel on the inside and if you feel
spk_0
loved and you feel full cared for and strong on the inside, then that's all that matters.
spk_0
Would you date an influencer or anybody that you have previously filmed with?
spk_0
That seems like a trick question. I've filmed with lots, lots of people, so you have to be a little
spk_0
bit more specific than that, but as far as an influencer, look, I'm not going to knock anything that
spk_0
is coming my way or that I feel like is sent from God. I do feel like we both have to be on the
spk_0
same page as far as what we're saying and what we're sharing. I do like my my love life or my
spk_0
that life to be very private. I saw something on Instagram where it's like public but private and
spk_0
it's like, yeah, you pump private, but you know that I'm dating somebody just to have that line
spk_0
of respect because I don't feel like everybody needs to be in the business, but I wouldn't knock it,
spk_0
I just, you know, yeah, whatever that means. Okay. How do you balance faith with being real and not
spk_0
overly churchy? That's a great question. I think when I'm speaking in general to God,
spk_0
I just talked to him like a person. He just wants like just an honest conversation like as a friend,
spk_0
I as if like just a regular person, I don't take it super far with him.
spk_0
And I don't really want to filter my faith or who I am for Instagram. Some people like get upset or
spk_0
get mad or have these expectations on Christians or realistically, we're all human. And it's like
spk_0
dude, I'm going to fail. I'm going to sin. I'm going to not be perfect. And you have to get that in
spk_0
your head. The goal is to always like treat people better and love people and love people the way
spk_0
that Jesus loves them. And I feel like that's the ultimate gift that anybody can give versus the
spk_0
sins that someone is committing or doing. Like you got to like stop holding people at this
spk_0
standard because at the end of the day, we're human and we make mistakes. You can't judge somebody
spk_0
for doing something that you wouldn't do or whatever. Like we're all on the same journey and
spk_0
everyone has their own convictions. What really matters is like our relationship and how we talk to
spk_0
God and how much we practice and putting how much we practice and put him in our lives.
spk_0
What are your red flags? What are your red flags when you're talking to someone new?
spk_0
I have a lot. I'm just kidding. I feel like inconsistency. Inconsistency and over promising.
spk_0
Why? Because I'm a woman of my word and I need you to be a man of your word. I need you to
spk_0
also have those deep conversations with me.
spk_0
And be comfortable. Yeah, like those are moments. If we're looking, if we're going to be locked in,
spk_0
like we need to have this mutual understanding. And if you're over promising, if you're
spk_0
love bombing me, if you're like promising and saying all these things and you're not really
spk_0
going to fulfill that, then I don't want that. And that's a red flag for me.
spk_0
I feel like when someone doesn't try too hard or when someone is just themselves and honest,
spk_0
like that is a green flag. When they're not pursuing you, when they're not, I don't say not
spk_0
pursuing you, but when it's just mature, you'll realize when it's mature and genuine,
spk_0
that that's healthy. Instead of like, oh, texting every day, texting all day, all night going,
spk_0
I don't know. Like, it has to be a balance. I guess we'll go into the next one,
spk_0
which is how is dating life? Oh, you guys. Honestly, I like I answered the question before. I'm
spk_0
chill season. Like, I'm not, I'm not expecting anything anymore. Like, I'm going to take whatever
spk_0
God is sending my way. I know what's good. I know what's not good. I know what's like mature. I know
spk_0
what I want. Even if it's, I can't, I have to like, remember to not settle. I feel like I've lived
spk_0
long enough to like, I lived long enough and I lived through some things that I'm just like,
spk_0
yeah, no, I can't, I'm not going to be putting up with this. I'm not going to be doing this over and
spk_0
over again. And whatever that is, you know, so right now, you know, this is the answer, the question
spk_0
to answer, the short term is like, am I dating? No. Is there potential candidates that I'm just
spk_0
maybe, but not really, to be honest, I'm just enjoying this single season and waiting season
spk_0
and viewing it as preparation and enjoying my life to be quite honest. Wow, got much on me.
spk_0
What is your current fitness or wellness goal? That's a great question, too.
spk_0
I am not looking to lose weight. It's not about weight. I just want to gain more strength and endurance
spk_0
and mood. I just want to feel good in my skin period. What's the hardest boundary you've ever had
spk_0
to set in dating? Cutting some onoff that I've had a chemistry with
spk_0
because they're inconsistent because they are just not living up to their word or just not really,
spk_0
yeah, being who they said they were, like energy isn't enough when there's like the sense of
spk_0
piecing. I'm 28. I'm turning 28. Like, there's no more time to waste. Like, I'm not putting like a
spk_0
timeline on you, but again, I'm just looking for maturity and looking for consistency. There's a lot
spk_0
of people that just want to mess around and I'm not here for it. Like, I'm just not going to be
spk_0
doing this back and forth over and over again. Like, way too grown for that.
spk_0
All right, we're going to go on a quick break and we'll be right back to answer more of your
spk_0
guys' questions. Welcome back, you guys. Oh, how do you handle your emotions?

spk_0
Listen to Jess Hill with Dr. Jay from the Black Effect Podcast Network on the iHeartRadio app,
spk_0
Apple Podcast or wherever you get your podcasts. When you're tempted to text someone toxic,
spk_0
first of all, honey. Block them. That's it. I'm just kidding. I would write it in my notes instead
spk_0
and then I would block. Because you know why? What you're feeling right now is just temporary.
spk_0
That sense of just like, oh, I'm upset. I need to text him and whatever. You don't even have to be
spk_0
upset. You can just be bored and want to do it. But it's like, no, trust me, blocking them.
spk_0
You know how many people I've locked? I don't do it to have bad burning bridges or bad
spk_0
whatever with these people. I just feel like it's just better. We're not meeting I now.
spk_0
Why am I going to keep that door open? Why am I going to keep having that temptation be there and
spk_0
entertaining the idea of maybe possible? Like, no. Go right in your notes. Call a friend
spk_0
and you'll feel better in 10 minutes. Trust me. Stop going through their Instagram. Stop looking for
spk_0
them. Stop making fake pages to go look at their Instagrams. Don't be toxic about it. Just
spk_0
stop. Stop doing it. If you want to move on, then move on. Because the only person that's
spk_0
holding you back is yourself. What do you do when you're doing everything right spiritually,
spk_0
but still feel stuck? I'm loving that I'm getting a lot of faithful questions. I like that.
spk_0
I think, and I feel like this has happened to me too and it's a season that I'm currently in,
spk_0
is stop performing. Stop seeing it as something as a job or something that
spk_0
when we have these checklists, we're burning ourselves out. So just sit back, chill,
spk_0
and talk to God like he's a friend.
spk_0
What helped your faith grow the most this past year?
spk_0
I think
spk_0
going through situations that have required, not required, but have resulted in pain, grieving.
spk_0
I think I felt God more, more comfort from God in those silent moments.
spk_0
Then I ever did just like when everything was clear and pretty. I felt God closer when I was just
spk_0
in pain and realizing, starting to know like, okay, this is what he's trying to teach me and
spk_0
trying to guide me. You start to fall in love with God more when you just see it as like, okay,
spk_0
all he asks of me is just to be faithful and obedient to him and to trust him. And sometimes
spk_0
that's really, really hard, especially when things happen to like family or close friends or
spk_0
whatever, like it's just really, really hard to trust in those moments, but I do feel like that's
spk_0
what draws me closer and knowing that that's my lifeline, that's what's going to keep me going and
spk_0
keep me alive. Are you still abstin-ing it? Actually, yes I am. I have been, I have enjoyed it.
spk_0
Honestly, it's just like kind of a way off my shoulders, especially if like your girl,
spk_0
like it's just like, okay, I don't got a trip or I'm going to worry about this. No, but really,
spk_0
it's honestly like made me feel more confident in my body. Weird to say.
spk_0
I've enjoyed the piece. I've enjoyed not having like a soul tie and I feel like I've talked
spk_0
about it with you guys, but if you guys don't know, I do believe in soul ties. I do believe that
spk_0
when you do interchange or have sex with somebody like whatever that person has been through or
spk_0
the other person that they've had sex with kind of just really, it does come to you and then it
spk_0
just turns into that and I had to realize that after the last person that I was with and this is
spk_0
very vulnerable and kind of exposing, but it is just like, it's real. Like I remember like the last
spk_0
person that I was with that person had just been very anxious and depressed and then a couple days
spk_0
later, like I just started feeling that too and it was weird because I had felt like I let go of
spk_0
that anxiety and love that depression, but it's really true. Like I didn't have a reason why
spk_0
and then I just put two in together and then when I stopped talking to that person, when I
spk_0
stopped doing things with that person, like it just felt better and I felt like myself again.
spk_0
So yeah, it really does matter and I'm still upset and I'm very proud of it and I plan to stick
spk_0
to it for a long time and hopefully the person that I'm with, my partner can understand that and
spk_0
we can be on the same page about it. I've gotten a lot of questions about my brand over comfort and
spk_0
about coming out with my own clothing line, all that stuff. Look, to be quite honest,
spk_0
did I close over comfort? Yes, I did. I did. I do not
spk_0
I kind of did it silently. Look, there's things that are for people and things that aren't. I am
spk_0
happy, I'm grateful for what I did have and what I was able to sell and give you guys,
spk_0
but I don't think selling is for me. I don't think selling merchandise in general is for me. I think that
spk_0
I just, I love being able to communicate and have these open conversation with you guys,
spk_0
but some people do great at it. So yeah, as far as over comfort, yes, but there is something new
spk_0
in the works that doesn't have to do with merchandise or selling anything. It's very exciting.
spk_0
So if they get to share with you guys, would you date someone from a different religion than what
spk_0
you believe? If you guys are Christian, then you guys know the answer and if you don't and if
spk_0
you aren't, then you would know, then you should know, but I will obviously talk about being
spk_0
equally yoked and unequally, two people that just aren't on the same page do not mesh well.
spk_0
They don't go together. They don't, things just, it just doesn't work out that way.
spk_0
So for me, I personally do not think so. I, not that I don't think so, it's probably a hard
spk_0
know where I just feel like because when you raise kids, when you are like thinking of future
spk_0
plans or whatever, you want to be able to be on the same page. Like for me,
spk_0
like, I want to be able to present my kid. I believe in baptism. I believe that they should be
spk_0
raised in the Christian faith. I don't believe that they should be raised in the Catholic faith
spk_0
where they believe in the saints are getting baptized when they're kids, all that. Like all that
spk_0
matters when you're raising kids. And those are foundations that you need to have and set before
spk_0
you like commit yourself to somebody. Those are the uncomfortable conversations that you need to have
spk_0
and to know like, okay, is this person for me or not? Okay. Last question so that we can wrap it up.
spk_0
What's your biggest glow up moment? Physically, mentally or spiritually? I'm going to say
spk_0
all the above. I think each one has its own personal year. I feel like last year was my mental
spk_0
glow up. I feel like I really healed myself mentally, my anxiety. And this year definitely
spk_0
has to be my physical and my spiritual. I got baptizes here. I'm looking the best that I ever
spk_0
have in my life, which I'm grateful for. I'm just happy with life in general. I feel like once I've
spk_0
really set myself goals and really set my eyes on God and really realize like, okay, the important
spk_0
kids of just taking care of yourself and who's feeding into you and what you're doing on the daily
spk_0
really matters. It's just helped me. It's helped me just enjoy life for what it is. I have a great
spk_0
circle. I have great friends. I love going to church. I love the church that I go to. It's not toxic.
spk_0
It's not, I don't feel betrayed. I don't feel like I'm getting hurt there. My relationship with God
spk_0
more than anything outside of the church is great. I just feel like, you know, once you start putting
spk_0
things into perspective and you start seeing life differently and you start seeing it the way that
spk_0
God wants you to, you start just seeing everything beautiful and life is great. And I'm just grateful
spk_0
to be in this position to be able to have the knowledge, to be able to speak to you guys, to have
spk_0
a better platform to encourage and to motivate you guys. And if me going to the gym every day and
spk_0
posting about it or me talking about God or sharing my journey with you guys is motivating, then I'm
spk_0
going to keep doing it and not just for myself, but for you guys too. And for our future generations
spk_0
because the world gets ugly and they're mean and just uncomfortable. But I'm here to just
spk_0
remind you guys that life is beautiful and you can have the same glow up or experience that I have had.
spk_0
And yeah, so without further ado, we're going to do our Bible verse of the day
spk_0
just so that we can all stay connected and enjoy it. Ready? Bible verse of the day is 1 Peter 510.
spk_0
After you have suffered a little while, he will restore support and strengthen you. This one has
spk_0
definitely been a personal Bible verse for me lately when I feel like I've been through so much
spk_0
and experienced a lot. I always have to go back around myself that God is going to restore me,
spk_0
strengthen me and support me. And I'm not in this alone. And neither are you guys. Thank you
spk_0
guys so much for your questions. Thank you guys for being here tuning in. Make sure you guys like,
spk_0
comments, subscribe. Let me know which guests, which topics, which recipes you guys would like to see
spk_0
next. And I will see you guys on the next one. Hi there. This is Josh Clark from the Stuff You
