In this episode of Gems From Friends, we sit down with one of Barbados' fastest-rising soca artists, Tionne Hernandez, for one of her most personal conversations to date.
From being an incredibly shy little girl known as "Typhoon" to becoming one of the Caribbean's most exciting performers, Tionne opens up about the moments that shaped her.
We discuss:
• Growing up without her father and how it affected her self-worth.
• Being bullied and struggling with confidence.
• Leaving music and returning years later.
• Corporate life, entrepreneurship and building a personal brand.
• Motherhood, postpartum depression and raising her son.
• Why perfectionism can become a prison.
• The business of being an independent artist.
• The future of Barbadian soca.
• Faith, healing and learning to give yourself grace.
This isn't just a conversation about music.
It's a conversation about becoming.
If you've ever questioned your worth, struggled to keep going, or wondered if your dream is still possible, this episode is for you.
