Behind the Fame, Beyond the Applause: Her Journey to God ( Irist London)
Manage episode 480255159 series 3645873
She danced on the biggest stages in the world. She was R. Kelly's backup dancer. She built her own dance business. Lived the life many dream of—glamour, money, status, relationships.
But deep down… something was missing.
In this raw and powerful episode of Beyond Logic, Iris opens up about her journey from the top of the world to the feet of Jesus. She shares the highs of working in the entertainment industry, the illusions of success, and the painful lessons learned through relationships, fame, and identity struggles.
But the most powerful part?
The moment she walked away from it all—not out of failure, but out of obedience to God.
In this conversation, we dive into:
Her experience dancing for R. Kelly and behind-the-scenes industry pressure
What success looked like—and what it cost
Her relationships with men, broken identity, and emotional trauma
The moment she knew God was calling her to let go of the life she built
How surrender brought her the peace she could never find in performance
This isn’t just a story about fame.
It’s a story about freedom. About how God will dismantle everything you built without Him to restore what’s eternal.
