Dear Future Wifey

In this deeply vulnerable episode of Dear Future Wifey, Laterras Whitfield sits down with Cora Jakes for one of her most transparent conversations to date. Cora courageously opens up about her decision to speak publicly about her divorce and the abuse her daughter survived, sharing how her family is walking through healing, restoration, and faith in the aftermath. With grace and honesty, she discusses the cost of silence, the power of truth, and what healing looks like when the wounds are personal and public. The conversation also explores what it was like growing up as Bishop T.D. Jakes’ daughter, including the internal struggle of losing her own sense of identity as her father’s name became globally recognized. Cora reflects on carrying expectations, navigating visibility, and finding her voice beyond the weight of a famous last name. Additionally, she shares about her role as the family intercessor—the unseen spiritual labor, the emotional weight it carries, and how prayer became both her refuge and responsibility. This episode is raw, redemptive, and necessary—a powerful reminder that healing is not linear, faith doesn’t eliminate pain, and courage sometimes looks like telling the truth out loud. 📸 CONNECT WITH OUR GUEST https://www.instagram.com/officialcallmecora/ CONNECT WITH OUR HOSTShttps://www.instagram.com/laterrasrwhitfieldhttps://www.instagram.com/ashleyrwhitfield ORDER LATERRAS R.
