  • What Happens When You Truly Love Your Team
    2026/02/03
    Who’s behind the scenes holding everything together?
    In this episode, I sit down with two women who know my life, my work, and my heart better than just about anyone. This conversation is a reminder that strong workplace culture isn’t built on titles or tasks, but on trust, love, and showing up for one another over time.

    Together, we reflect on what it truly means to love your people well. We talk about loyalty, service, shared values, and the kind of behind-the-scenes support that often goes unseen but makes everything possible. From laughter and quirks to hard seasons and growth, this episode is a celebration of long-term relationships and the power of treating people like they matter.

    If you’ve ever worked quietly behind the scenes, led a team, or wondered what kind of culture you’re creating, this conversation is an encouragement to choose kindness, loyalty, and heart every single day.

    Episode Highlights:
    [01:00] Why loving your people well matters
    [04:30] What loyalty looks like over time
    [09:00] The unseen work behind successful leadership
    [14:30] Navigating challenges together as a team
    [19:45] Choosing service over ego
    [25:00] Creating a culture where people feel valued

  • Why Consistency Beats Intensity Every Single Time
    2026/01/26
    I’ve learned something the hard way: intensity feels productive, but it doesn’t actually change your life. If you keep starting strong and burning out, this episode is for you.

    Today, I unpack why goals so often fall apart, not because we’re lazy or undisciplined, but because our inputs and self-talk are quietly working against us. We explore why consistency beats intensity every time, how the words you repeat shape your identity, and why sustainable growth comes from daily agreements with yourself, not big emotional pushes.

    I share real-life examples from health, leadership, and mindset, including lessons learned from coaching, sports leadership, and my own journey of showing up even when motivation fades. We talk about sound bites, self-trust, and what it really means to operate like a winner when no one is watching.

    You don’t need more pressure.
    You don’t need a bigger promise.
    You need steadier inputs and kinder, truer language.

    Because real change doesn’t come from going harder.
    It comes from staying consistent.

    Episode Highlights:
    [02:30] What great coaches understand about identity and language
    [04:45] How changing words changes outcomes
    [06:30] “We will not be surprised by success,” and why expectation matters
    [08:00] Pressure as a privilege, not a punishment
    [10:15] What it really means to operate like a winner
    [11:45] Consistency beats intensity every time
    [13:30] The long-term impact of small, repeated actions
    [15:00] Coaching, self-trust, and learning to show up
    [17:30] Why motivation often fails and inputs matter more
    [19:15] Discipline as a way to rebuild trust in yourself
    [21:00] Mind, body, and spirit working together
    [23:30] The power of affirmations and internal sound bites
    [25:45] Gratitude as a shift from what’s missing to what’s working
    [28:00] Choosing better inputs in a noisy world
    [30:15] Encouragement to develop your own winning language

  • Why Goals Keep Failing You-Dan Hinz Explains What Works
    2026/01/20
    Growth doesn’t come from perfection. It comes from awareness, honesty, and the courage to try again differently. Today, I’m back with my friend Dan Hinz for a conversation that goes deeper into habits, health, mindset, and what it really looks like to invest in yourself over the long haul. We talk about systems versus goals, why daily habits matter more than big promises, and how psychology plays a bigger role in change than strategy ever will. Dan shares how coaching helped him identify blind spots, pivot careers, and create sustainable habits around work, health, and life. I also open up about what it means to be “happy” and still have hard days, and why doing the next right thing is often enough.

    Episode Highlights
    [01:30] Why systems beat goals every time
    [03:45] Budgeting, habits, and building long-term stability
    [05:30] Zone 2 training and redefining fitness success
    [08:00] Sugar, discipline, and knowing yourself
    [10:30] Psychology vs. strategy in personal growth
    [13:00] “Every action is a vote for who you want to become”
    [15:45] Pivoting careers without guilt
    [18:00] Getting back on track after setbacks
    [21:00] Finding what works for you, not trends
    [24:00] Mental health, low-energy days, and honesty
    [26:00] Managing overwhelm by doing the next right thing
    [28:30] Why coaching unlocks blind spots
    [31:00] Investing in yourself with courage and intention
    [33:00] Final encouragement and becoming who God designed you to be

    2025/12/22
    This week, I’m sitting down with someone whose life and leadership reflect one simple truth: the most meaningful relationships are the ones that see more in you than you see in yourself. Mayor Allan Branch is a walking example of that. Whether he’s building businesses, shaping downtown Panama City, or simply serving neighbors one small act at a time, Allan brings a spirit of intention, creativity, and heart into everything he touches.

Allan shares how art, software, and public service all fit into his creative brain, and how the kindness he received growing up fuels the way he leads today. This conversation is a reminder that the soul of a city is built by people who care enough to imagine something better and work toward it every day.

  • When Looking Back Helps You Move Forward
    2025/12/15
    Sometimes I say, “Don’t look in the rearview mirror. That’s not where you’re going.” But today I’m sharing why looking back can be holy work. When we glance over our shoulder with an open heart, we remember just how far God has brought us and how much He can still do when we keep our hands open and ready to receive. In this episode, I talk about the seasons that shaped me: the years of working three jobs, the embarrassment I carried, the kindness that kept my lights on, and the moments when God used people to love me back to life. And now, standing in this beautiful building and walking in blessings I once prayed for, I’m reminded why gratitude is the fuel that moves us forward. If you’re in a hard season, I hope my stories remind you that you’ve made it through every hard day so far and you’ll make it through this one too. Look back only long enough to say, “Thank You,” then let faith lead you on.

    Episode Highlights:
    [00:00] Welcoming our newest sponsor: Buffalo Rock Pepsi
    [01:00] Why looking back can deepen gratitude
    [02:00] Letting go, letting God, and speaking to Impact 100
    [03:00] Learning to trust your voice even when fear shows up
    [04:00] Humbling jobs, old uniforms, and the embarrassment that shaped me
    [05:00] The moment I couldn’t afford power and prayed for a way forward
    [06:00] When community loved me through my hardest Christmas
    [07:00] Walking into blessings I once begged God for
    [08:00] Keeping your hands open so God can fill them
    [09:00] Reframing lack with “It’s not in my budget”
    [10:00] Using the past as proof that you can survive anything
    [11:00] Protecting your peace from negativity
    [12:00] Letting your story become someone else’s hope
    [13:00] Sponsor gratitude and reflecting on generosity
