Ladies and gentlemen and whoever else is listening, welcome back to the show. Today we’re getting real about our local leadership. I’m joined by Elk Ridge Mayor Robert Haddock and his challenger, Teri Shelley, to talk about what’s working, what’s not, and what they each hope to bring to the city’s future. No scripts, no spin — just two passionate community members sharing their visions for Elk Ridge.

Ladies and gentlemen and whoever else is listening, welcome back to the show. Today my guest is Barry Fell, LCSW, who’s not only a seasoned therapist but also the author of a pretty eye-opening book called Therapy: A Life-changer, A Lifestyle, Or a Waste of Time. In it, Barry digs into the real questions a lot of us have about therapy but don’t always say out loud—does it actually change your life, does it just become a routine, or can it sometimes feel like a waste of time? With over 20 years of experience in the field, Barry’s seen it all, and he’s not afraid to be honest about what works and what doesn’t. We’re going to dive into his story, his insights, and maybe challenge a few assumptions along the way. Get the book here: https://tinyurl.com/2zpd6jj4 Get his other book: rb.gy/4zp61j

Ladies and gentlemen and whoever else is listening. Welcome back to the show. My guest today is Dr. Julie de Azevedo Hanks, PhD, LCSW, Owner/Executive Director of Wasatch Family Therapy, and she is an all around pretty good human and so gracious with the time to share her story with me. Julie joins me today to talk about her life growing up in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and also the reason she started her therapy practice which has been incredibly successful for more than two decades. In recent months and years, her passion for helping people and her faith have collided. What happens when healing feels like heresy? Julie shares why she has recently walked away from her church and the pains, challenges and freedoms she has experienced in doing so. CONTACT JULIE

Ladies and gentlemen and whoever else is listening — welcome back to the show.

My guest today is Katie Coe, Ag Science teacher at Princeton High School in Princeton, California, and, as some affectionately call her, one of the leaders of America’s food cults. We dig into her roots growing up in the cattle ranching and farming world of Shasta County, CA, and explore her passion for teaching the next generation about an industry that is — quite literally — life-giving for all of us.

Today’s guest is Jennifer Yeo — powerhouse CEO, founder, and principal broker of Presidio Real Estate, and one of the breakout stars of Bravo’s Sold on SLC.

From juggling deals and leading a top brokerage to having reality TV cameras follow her every move, Jennifer’s seen it all — including how the magic of television can turn everyday business into dramatic storylines that aren’t quite as real as they look.

Ladies and gentlemen and whoever else is listening. Welcome back to the show. In this deeply moving episode, we sit down with Laurie Lee Hall, author of Dictates of Conscience: The Journey from Mormon High Priest to Transgender Woman, to explore her extraordinary life—a path marked by devotion, courage, and authenticity over 50 years. Once a respected leader and chief temple architect within the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Laurie shares what it meant to honor her truth in the face of profound spiritual and social consequence.

We also have a special guest on the program. Joining Laurie Lee are a 15-year-old transgender boy and his devoted, passionate, and fiercely supportive mother. Together, they offer a rare intergenerational glimpse into the evolving landscape of gender identity, parental advocacy, and the real-life challenges and triumphs of living authentically in today’s world.

This is a conversation about faith, identity, and the unbreakable power of love—and what it truly means to follow the dictates of one's own conscience. Note: We regret that our additional guests have chosen to remain anonymous as they don't feel safe in today's political climate.

Chris Williams is a board certified Family Nurse Practitioner, and founder of Revive Hormone Health. He has a deep passion for helping others feel their best. He is dedicated to making a meaningful and actual healing in the lives of his patients. Too often, traditional healthcare methods and treatments are dictated by insurance companies and pharmaceutical companies which treat symptoms not root causes. Thus keeping people sick and dependent. The opposite of what healthcare ought to be.

Chris practices what he preaches too. He is his own patient and has recently lost over 100 pounds and kicked his high blood pressure medication.

My guest today is Valerie Hamaker, a licensed mental health professional and co-host of the popular Latter Day Struggles podcast—a show focused on helping individuals, especially members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, navigate the emotional and spiritual challenges that arise from complex church history and theology.

Recently, Valerie and her husband Nathan were summoned to appear before a membership disciplinary council—a process that often results in excommunication. Instead of participating, they chose to resign their membership.

The way they’ve been treated by their local leaders—what I’d call a clear attempt at silencing—feels not only confusing and unsettling, but also symptomatic of deeper cracks within the structure and institution of the LDS Church.
