First, Anjelah shares how her pursuit of an entertainment career began when she made the Oakland Raiders cheerleading squad.

This is one of my favorite quotes from this week’s episode:
“In order to see the breadcrumbs that God has laid out before you, you have to be focused on your path. Not your friend next to you, not the girl to the right, not the girl you follow on Instagram, not that new TikTok account, not any of that.” – Anjelah Johnson Reyes
