Descripción del Episodio
Allyson Felix, a name synonymous with unparalleled achievement and groundbreaking advocacy, joins Mick Unplugged to share her remarkable journey. From shattering Olympic records and redefining what it means to be a champion athlete to becoming a fierce advocate for maternal rights and an innovative entrepreneur with her brand, Saysh, Allyson's story is one of unwavering resilience, profound purpose, and inspiring leadership. She delves into the core values that have guided her through athletic triumphs and personal challenges, demonstrating how faith, integrity, and a commitment to impact have shaped her legacy far beyond the track.
Takeaways:
- The 'Because' of Purpose: Allyson Felix reveals that her profound drive stems from a faith-based belief in serving others and making a lasting impact, viewing her gifts as divine and meant for more than personal glory.
- Building Your Own Lane: Faced with a lack of support in the industry, Allyson Felix co-founded Saysh, demonstrating that true change often comes from building the solutions you wish to see, rather than waiting for existing structures to adapt.
- Beyond the Medal: For Allyson Felix, triumph extended beyond winning races; her most meaningful victory was competing in her own Saysh shoes, symbolizing a deeper purpose of representing women, especially women of color, and advocating for her daughter.
Sound Bytes:
"I truly believe that I was there for more than, you know, to run fast or, you know, really tried to live out my values as well and hope that that was seen and that was a real picture of someone striving for something. So yeah, to me, it's a part of who I am."
"I did always have to come back to, know, well, who am I? And that is more important than any of these other things. And I truly believe also like what's for me will be for me. And I think that helped, you know, it really helped a lot of those times where you felt that pull and, you know, come back to say, you know, I need to be unapologetically myself."
"But it was something that I knew that I wanted for my life. And I also knew that I had a career that I loved as well and that that was very important to me."

COERCED: The Devotion & Death of Mica Francis Miller
By shows
On April 27, 2024, 30-year-old Mica Francis Miller — wife of Myrtle Beach pastor John-Paul Miller — walked a mile into a North Carolina state park and made a 911 call that would be the last time the world heard her voice. Within days, her death was ruled a suicide — a ruling that would have ended the story for most true crime journalists. We aren't most true crime journalists. And Mica's story is anything but typical. COERCED: The Devotion & Death of Mica Francis Miller is a LUNASHARK® DROP-FEED from the award-winning team behind the Murdaugh Murders Podcast — investigative journalists Mandy Matney, Liz Farrell and Beth Braden — along with producers Kate Thomas, Grace Hills and David Moses. It’s a remastered, chronological retelling of more than 2 years of original reporting from the True Sunlight Podcast, built for listeners who want to follow one case. Listen To Current Coverage On The True Sunlight Podcast or Ad-Free from LUNASHARK Premium on Patreon or Supercast At the time of her death, Mica left behind a paper trail of evidence documenting how JP allegedly abused Mica emotionally, physically, sexually, medically and spiritually throughout their relationship, which started when she was a teenager and he was her youth pastor. Mica died while she was in the process of divorcing JP Miller. COERCED takes a deeper look at JP Miller’s dark past that includes rape allegations, alleged bestiality, an assault conviction and pardon, and a pattern of allegedly abusive behavior that can be traced back to his father — Rev. Wayne Miller. JP’s felon father once owned a Christian complex in South Carolina called Gloryland… before it mysteriously burned down. Through exclusive interviews, 911 calls, court filings, and documents obtained through relentless FOIA requests, COERCED examines coercive control, medical and spiritual abuse, and the systems that dismissed a woman fighting for her life — and asks what accountability looks like. Mica couldn't save herself. But her story could save others. This series discusses domestic abuse, coercive control, and suicide. If you or someone you know needs support, please call or text 988 or contact the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-7233. Support in South Carolina is also available through Liza’s Lifeline. Stay tuned. Stay pesky.
