Blow Your Mind(set)
Welcome to the Blow Your Mind(set) Podcast — where ordinary moments meet extraordinary mindset shifts. 🎙️
In a world that’s noisy, messy, and constantly moving, we slow things down just enough to ask: "Did that really just happen?"
I’m your host, Nicole Smith — emotional intelligence expert, mindset disruptor, and your favorite thought partner in this wild ride we call leadership and life.
Every episode, we crack open the stories, shifts, and surprises that challenge how we think, lead, and show up. From boardrooms to breakups, social trends to self-talk, we’re unpacking it all through the lens of emotional brilliance.
You’ll hear powerful solo episodes and unfiltered conversations with game-changers, thought leaders, and real people doing the inner work. No fluff. Just real talk, real insight, and a real push to think differently.
Whether you're navigating a personal pivot or leading in high-pressure spaces — this is your space to reset, reframe, and blow your mindset wide open.
Let’s get into it.

Blow Your Mind(set): Why Spiritual Maturity Requires Emotional Maturity
Together, Nicole and Melanie Pratt, radio personality of Charlotte Praise 100.9, dive deep into the intersection of faith and emotional intelligence—challenging the tendency to “put glitter on it” in church and in life, while ignoring the pain beneath. With vulnerability and wisdom, Melanie shares her personal journey from singing in choirs to becoming a trusted voice on gospel radio, and what she’s learned about healing, authenticity, and emotional maturity along the way.
🔑 In this conversation, you’ll discover:
- Why faith and healing aren’t either/or—but both/and.
- How unprocessed emotions like anger, fear, and grief sabotage spiritual growth.
- The power of emotional intelligence as a toolkit for resilience, conflict, and capacity.
- Why being the same person in all spaces is the foundation of trust and integrity.
- How healthy conflict, pausing, and self-awareness can transform relationships.
This episode is a candid, liberating reminder that spiritual maturity requires emotional maturity—and that true faith is never about hiding pain, but about healing it.
