To celebrate the launch of Bloodline, my second book, I sat down with Michelle Deuz—the prophetic voice behind the foreword—for a powerful, raw, and deeply personal conversation.

In this episode of Under the Rug, we unpack the spiritual DNA we’ve inherited and what it looks like to rewrite our bloodline through faith, repentance, and grace. From breaking free from generational bondage to embracing a divine reset, Michelle shares profound revelations and personal testimonies that challenge, convict, and inspire.

We dive into:

• The importance of repentance and reclaiming our identity in Christ
• How authentic testimony becomes a tool for transformation
