A song can win years later.”🔥“Gimmicks fade when the personality behind them ain't real.”🔥“Festivals show who actually has music, not just motion.”🔥“People don’t fall in love with the music first.

  • "I Was Bullied Out of My Gift… Until I Took It Back"

    "I Was Bullied Out of My Gift… Until I Took It Back"
    Dec 16 2025

    Breaking the Box: Music, Healing & Finding Your Voice Without Permission


    w/Guest: Bri Toria — Singer, Songwriter, Spiritual Practitioner, Healer, Mentor, Business Owner


    In this powerful episode of Sculpt N Create, Trea Da Fit Artist sits down with Bri Toria for a raw conversation about finding your voice, breaking generational cycles, and healing through creativity.


    Bri opens up about being bullied out of singing at a young age for not fitting the “expected” church sound, and how that experience planted years of fear, self-doubt, and silence around her voice.


    Instead of quitting, she chose to carry the creative baton passed down through the women in her family and run her own race.


    From her genre-blending neo-soul and alternative R&B sound to her debut album I Am ISIS, Bri shares how music became a tool for self-love, emotional release, and spiritual healing.


    She also speaks honestly about touring as an independent artist... the vocal strain, technical issues, stress, and growth... and why taking the leap matters more than being “ready.”


    The conversation expands beyond music into Bri’s work as a Reiki healer, EMDR specialist, sound therapist, and mentor, exploring how mind, body, and soul alignment shows up in both her art and her mission.


    If you’ve ever felt boxed in by expectations or discouraged out of your calling, this episode will hit home.
