In part two of my talk with Matt Williams, we dive deep into the power—and necessity—of having conversations about controversial topics. Matt opens up about what it’s really like to run for office, the lessons he learned along the way, and why respectful dialogue matters now more than ever.

We talk about listening when it’s uncomfortable, finding common ground in chaos, and how courage and curiosity can change the world—one conversation at a time.

From surviving a rough childhood to working on a shrimp boat surrounded by addiction and being allergic to shrimp, Matt has lived through things that could break most people. In this episode, he opens up about the realities of growing up in chaos, his time in the military, and how those experiences led him to start his own podcast and find his voice.

This is Part I of our conversation — next week, in Part II, we dig even deeper: why we’re so quick to believe one side before hearing the other, how to navigate hard conversations, and why open dialogue still matters.

After losing his son to devastating medical complications, Dr. Greg found himself questioning everything — his faith, his purpose, and even his beliefs about what it means to love unconditionally.

In this powerful conversation, Greg opens up about the healing power of journaling, the importance of speaking your truth, and how grief can strip you down to what really matters. He shares how his work with Joni and Friends helped him rediscover peace, and how choosing empathy over judgment changed the way he views faith, family, and connection.

This episode is a gentle reminder that your story matters. Your voice matters. And healing often begins the moment we stop hiding from our truth.
