The Status Talk
The Status Talk is a podcast for women who are no longer interested in surviving — they’re ready to elevate.
Hosted by mindset and transformation coach Toniqua Shaw, this show explores what status really means beyond titles, money, or social validation. Each episode is an intentional conversation about identity, emotional maturity, spirituality, embodiment, wealth, and the inner shifts required to move differently at your next level.
Through solo episodes and intimate interviews with creators, leaders, and cultural voices, The Status Talk dives into the real work behind elevation — the standards you hold, the boundaries you set, the discipline behind ease, and the alignment that sustains success.
This isn’t motivation.
This is embodiment.
If you’re in a season of becoming — shedding old versions, raising your standards, and stepping into a more regulated, confident, and self-led life — The Status Talk is where you belong.
✨ New episodes weekly
Because your Next Level requires a different STATUS.

Entrepreneurship is spiritual AF!
🎙️ EPISODE 2 — ENTREPRENEURSHIP IS SPIRITUAL AF (PART 1)
The personal story. The waves. The emotions. The version you don’t always see.
In this deeply personal Part 1, Toniqua opens up about the spiritual side of entrepreneurship, the part nobody prepares you for, the part you feel more than you can explain. If you’ve ever wondered why building a business feels like an emotional, spiritual, rollercoaster… this episode will make you feel seen.
Toniqua shares her own journey through the waves of entrepreneurship: the high seasons, the quiet ones, the moments of flow, and the moments where God, Spirit, and intuition force you to slow down, sit down, or shift direction.
This isn’t the polished “strategy talk” ... this is the inner work, the identity shifts, the spiritual growth, the surrender, the reflections, and the realizations she’s had while trying to run a business and stay aligned at the same time.
You’ll hear how entrepreneurship has become one of her deepest spiritual teachers… and why she now believes that flow isn’t just vibes, it’s emotional intelligence, self-trust, preparation, and systems that support your calling.
Part 1 is the honesty.
Part 2 will be the blueprint.
