  • LECRAE'S MOMMA | Ormie Melton | Got it From My Momma | EP. 126
    Feb 10 2026

    Send a text

    This week Jennifer sits down with Ormie Melton, the mother of Grammy Award–winning Christian rapper and hip hop artist Lecrae, for an honest and hope-filled conversation about faith, motherhood, resilience, and redemption.

    Ormie shares about Lecrae’s early years, the struggles he faced during adolescence, and the pivotal moments that helped shape his character, calling, and career. She reflects on the challenges of raising a son through uncertainty, the importance of open communication, hard work, and believing in your child’s God-given potential, even when the road is difficult.

  • DEBRA NEWELL | BEYOND DIRTY JOHN | Got it From My Momma | EP. 125
    Jan 27 2026

    Send us a text

    Debra Newell’s life became the focus of the wildly popular true crime podcast and movie Dirty John- but behind the headlines is a mother, a survivor, and a woman of deep faith.

    In this episode of Got It From My Momma, Debra shares her harrowing real-life experience of falling in love with a man she met on a dating app...someone who appeared to have everything: wealth, prestige, charm, and a career in medicine. What she didn’t know was that he was a con man who would manipulate her, try to drain her financially, isolate her from her children, and ultimately bring her family into a tragic and unimaginable situation.


    Debra opens up about:

    • How manipulation can happen slowly—and to anyone
    • The impact Dirty John had on her relationship with her children
    • The weight of her daughter’s involvement in his death
    • Rebuilding Trust
    • And how her faith in God has sustained her through loss, shame, and healing

    This is more than a true crime story. It’s a raw conversation about love, deception, motherhood, forgiveness, and finding God’s grace after trauma.

  • JULIE CHRISLEY | FAITH & FREEDOM, FOREVER CHANGED | Got it From My Momma | EP. 124
    Jan 13 2026

    Send us a text

    Julie Chrisley joined me for her first solo sit-down interview since being released from prison after serving 28 months, and I don’t take that lightly.

    This conversation wasn’t about headlines or reality TV. It was about faith grown in hard places, the ache of being away from her children, missing holidays and milestones, and how this experience forever changed the way she sees people and God.

    I’m deeply honored she chose Got It From My Momma for her first conversation back. This episode is honest, tender, and full of perspective for anyone walking through a refining season.
