Woman Evolve with Sarah Jakes Roberts

Everyone knows Pretty Vee the comedian. However, inquiring minds want to know... who is she when the cameras stop rolling? Sarah Jakes Roberts gets to know the woman behind the laughter as our girl Pretty Vee takes us back to growing up in a Jamaican household. Think you know who fueled her comedic aspirations? Well, think again! Pretty Vee reveals her OG comedy influences, plus gets candid about how her parents responded to her career choice. In the middle of what she describes as a personal metamorphosis, Pretty Vee is reinventing herself, moving beyond the punchlines, and letting go of what no longer serves her. Through it all, faith remains at the center—and she’s sharing that journey both in this episode and in her 100-day devotional, The Pretty Victory.Now, a little love for our partners!

In this special episode of the Woman Evolve Podcast, Sarah Jakes Roberts shares a powerful message on identity, shame, healing, and learning to trust what God has already revealed about you.

Through 2 Kings 6 and John 8, SJR challenges us to stop allowing fear, rejection, past mistakes, and generational patterns to define who we are. When God begins uprooting what no longer belongs, it may feel uncomfortable — but it could be making room for the version of you He’s calling forward.

This is your reminder: the blessing wasn’t random, the favor wasn’t random, and your past does not disqualify your purpose.

Trust what you see. It’s go time.
