Presence Over Perfection with the Hosts of Unraveled, Aseanté Renee and LaToya Maria Artwork

The Unfolding: Presented by The Loveland Foundation

A network of conversations grounded in identifying abundance in us all. At the heart of these dialogues, two people are meeting, in a distilled moment, and process, with gratitude. Showing up for the journey to receive and give— showing up for reciprocity— knowledge that we do not always emphasize in Western cultures but need to in order to fully divulge and embrace the complicated nature of self. It is in these rituals of nourishing the spirit that we can also prioritize community, compassion, and responsibility. The Unfolding is a gift to embrace wholeness, together.

Presence Over Perfection with the Hosts of Unraveled, Aseanté Renee and LaToya Maria

October 17, 2025 • The Loveland Foundation

In this episode of The Unfolding: Presented by The Loveland Foundation Podcast, host Rachel Keener sits down with Aseanté Renee and LaToya Maria—the hosts of Unraveled Season 2—for a heartfelt and grounded conversation about mental health, self-love, and community.

They reflect on how Unraveled has evolved, bringing deeper honesty, vulnerability, and integration of personal experience. Together, they explore self-love as an ongoing practice rooted in grace, consistency, and gentleness, and discuss how self-care, self-worth, and self-maintenance are deeply connected.

The conversation offers practical ways to stay present—like checking in with yourself through micro-awareness and intentional pauses—and reframes the inner critic as a voice shaped by past protection rather than failure. Conflict, they note, can be a guide to understanding boundaries and capacity.

Throughout it all, joy remains a central theme: not something fleeting, but a steady practice and a form of resistance. Aseanté and LaToya remind listeners that healing and joy both begin with showing up authentically for yourself and your community.

Listen in for a conversation that celebrates growth, grace, and the daily work of self-love.
