Rise & Love

Welcome to Rise & Love with xInYaFaceDotCom! My name is Xavier Derek Hudson, and I’m here to empower you to be your fullest, most authentic self. I am many things: a husband, father, community member, business owner, entertainer, advocate, and more. I have overcome numerous obstacles in life, but I am constantly looking for ways to better myself and the communities to which I belong. In each episode of this show, we’ll dive into everything from personal growth and coaching to art, culture, and motivation—always rooted in love and connection. Whether I’m sharing inspiring stories, offering actionable advice, or chatting with incredible guests, my goal is to help you step into your purpose and embody your unique gifts. It’s time to rise above the noise, spread love, and become the leader you were meant to be. Join me on this journey of transformation, one conversation at a time.

Are Your Needs Being Met? (Ep. 003)

I've been going through some ups and downs lately. I went from having one of the most amazing birthday celebrations ever to having some really serious interpersonal challenges. In the midst of those challenges, I've also been fortunate enough to have people in my corner giving me love and reminding me to love myself. In this episode I'm sharing some of my reflections, and what I'm working on in my life. I hope that you can take something positive from engaging with me. As always #RiseandLove family.
