This week’s episode is a special one. We’re resharing a condensed version of one of our most powerful conversations as Unleashed and Unstoppable heads into the Digifest Temecula Awards 2026, kicking off April 24. After bringing home two awards last year, this episode has been selected as this year’s official submission—and it’s easy to see why.

In this conversation, we sit down with Lia Valencia Key, founder and creative director of Valencia Key Jewelry, a brand built on belief, possibility, and the courage to rise.

Lia’s story begins in Philadelphia, where she experienced homelessness as a child. Anchored by her mother’s unwavering message that circumstances don’t define destiny, she carved a path forward—earning degrees in business and education, building a career as a global hair and makeup artist, and ultimately launching her jewelry line on QVC, reaching millions of homes worldwide.

Her journey has taken her from unimaginable hardship to global recognition, with features in Oprah Magazine and sharing the stage with Jamie Kern Lima. But what makes Lia’s story truly powerful is her commitment to giving back—supporting and uplifting women in shelters while continuing to lead with joy, light, and purpose.

This episode is a reminder of what’s possible when belief meets action.

In this episode, you’ll walk away with:

A powerful perspective shift on how your circumstances shape—but don’t define—you
Insight into turning vision into reality, even when the odds feel stacked against you
A renewed sense of purpose, joy, and what it means to lead with light
