V. Tiarrá was a successful doctor and the medical director at a large primary care organization in South Florida, but divorce and a diagnosis with Lyme disease led her to rediscover her passion for music. Since then she has developed a smart and soulful R&B/hip hop/pop sound, with lyrics that reflect on the social conditions of the world, ranging from politics, money, feminism, to love.

In this episode, Tiarrá talks about finding her true voice, following her passion, and gaining the courage to step away from the path that was expected of her, even when the people around were asking her to get a “real job”.
