It's never too late to start using your words to build the people around you up. Not with your kids. Not with your team. Not with yourself.

Jody Hill is back for part two, and this conversation is just as rich as the first. Jody is the author of The Parent's Secret Superpower, and today she brings the science, the scripture, and the stories that make everything she teaches click into place.

We open with a water experiment that will genuinely stop you in your tracks — and connect what the Bible has been saying about the power of our words for centuries to what science is only now catching up to. From there, we get into what it looks like to stand against the villainous beliefs we hold about our kids, why Jody doesn't believe in the terrible twos, and how the difference between praising effort and praising results shapes the kind of person your child becomes.

We also talk about fear — how to raise kids who can do hard things, why identity is always at the root of courage, and how the small moments of everyday life are actually the most powerful classrooms we have.

And Jody closes with something for the parent who feels like they've missed their window. You haven't. It is never too late. And this episode will show you exactly where to start.

What if the most powerful thing you can do for the people around you is already inside you — and you just don't know how to use it yet?

Jody Hill never set out to write a book. She was a communications major turned photographer turned accidental author — and the message she stumbled into came directly out of one of the hardest seasons of her life. In part one of our conversation, Jody shares how walking through divorce as a mom of four sent her on a mission to discover what was actually in her power to shape her children's confidence, identity, and sense of worth.

The answer was her words. And once she saw it, she couldn't unsee it — which is how The Parent's Secret Superpower was born.

We talk about what it looks like to call people up to greatness instead of labeling their behavior, why being a champion is very different from being a savior, and what the science and scripture behind the power of words actually reveal about the influence we carry every single day — often without realizing it.

Whether you're a parent, a leader, a spouse, or just someone who interacts with other humans on a daily basis — this one is for you.

The dream isn't just the picture you see at the end. The dream is walking out the process that gets you there.

That's one of the most honest things Scott Ingegneri says in part two of this conversation — and by the time he says it, you've already heard enough of his story to know he means every word. Scott is a pastor, CEO of ACT International, and a man who has been saying "Good morning, Holy Spirit, take control" every single morning since second grade.

In this episode, Scott shares the stories behind the stories — his son who picked up a passion for lighting design as a little boy and is now a renowned production designer in country music. His wife who felt the Lord prompt her to turn into a property that wasn't even on the market yet. The midnight ceiling-painting sessions. The moment he said yes to leading a 50-year-old missions organization and had to grieve stepping away from the ministry with his wife that had defined everything they'd built together.

We also talk about what it means to encourage the dreamers in your home, what it looks like when your kids actually take you up on it, and what Scott would say to anyone who is in the middle of the hard, slow, unglamorous part of their calling and wondering if it's worth it.
