In this inspiring and unfiltered episode of The Self-Aware & F**ked Up Podcast, host Sandtrice Russell (Tree theLPC) sits down with media correspondent, red carpet host, and event curator Princess Banks for a raw conversation about the highs, lows, and healing that come with chasing your purpose.

Princess opens up about her leap of faith to Atlanta, howshe built a thriving career with BET+, TVOne, and DishNation, and the personal sacrifices that came with success, including the heartbreak of losing a lifelong friendship and navigating fake connections in a city that often feels more performative than personal.

From being used for celebrity access to staying grounded inher spiritual calling, Princess keeps it real about the emotional toll of being the “go-to girl” while secretly needing a safe space of her own. If you’ve ever felt lonely in a crowd, been burned by people you trusted, or are balancingvisibility with vulnerability, this episode is for you.
