My life purpose is "to embrace and explore my creativity and help others create the life God meant them to live." I'm a former pastor who was called by God into the world of entrepreneurship and personal development. In my podcast, I tell stories, deliver messages, and engage in lively conversations with my friends and heroes. Whether I'm unpacking and applying a story from the Gospels, quoting a line from an 80s romantic comedy, or discussing my love for art and literature, I always have one goal in mind: to help you pursue your God-given potential; not just for your own gain, but for the glory of God and the good of the world.

    Optimal Performance, Life Lessons, and Pursuing Ultimate Virtue ft. Dr. Jason Hamed - VKP044

    Get ready for a “Pardon the Interruption” style rapid-fire discussion where my esteemed guest, Dr. Jason Hamed, and I cover a wide range of interesting and relevant topics, from basic life hacks for optimal physical performance to lessons learned from our dearly departed dads. Dr. Hamed is an extraordinary human being; he’s a husband, dad, and co-founder of The Wellness Connection, a very successful holistic health center in St. Louis, Missouri. He is a good friend and one of the most impressive, articulate, passionately curious and growth-minded men I know. From picking up archery to practicing cold plunges before it was cool (see what I did there?), Dr. Hamed is a one-of-a-kind entrepreneur and man of God, and the insights and stories he shares in this episode are wise, entertaining, and supremely valuable.

    A Masterclass On Identifying and Achieving Goals ft. Dr. Ellen Reed - VKP043

    Dr. Ellen Reed is back! In this episode, we continue unpacking “The Framework of Achievement,” which is the scientifically proven and easy-to-implement tool presented in Dr. Reed’s book, Relentless Solution Focus (co-authored with Dr. Jason Selk). Specifically, we identify three most common mistakes of goal-setting, how to identify a goal that is concrete, measurable, and meaningful to you; and how to formulate and execute the process for achieving that goal. Let’s face it: a critical key to fulfillment in life is having goals and actually achieving them. This is a masterclass for exactly how to do that!

    The Science of Purposeful Living: Crafting Your Vision for Success ft. Dr. Ellen Reed - VKP041

    The Science of Purposeful Living: Crafting Your Vision for Success ft. Dr. Ellen Reed - VKP041

    By now, it’s cliché to hear experts like Simon Sinek say, “To be successful, you have to know your why.” You need to connect with a vision of what matters to you to motivate yourself to take action. Yes, it’s cliché and a well-worn topic – but it’s also true and absolutely essential if you want to elevate your performance, enjoy your life, and make the most of your time on Earth. In this episode, Dr. Ellen Reed, performance coach, and New York Times bestselling author, returns to the show to talk with me about creating a vision for your life – and connecting with that vision in a way that motivates you to take action. From scientifically proven principles to help you transform “I have to” into “I want to,” to practical guidance on crafting a purpose statement and establishing long-term priorities, this is a conversation I know will provide you enormous value.

    God’s Stroke of Genius ft. Cale Arnold - VKP040

    God’s Stroke of Genius ft. Cale Arnold - VKP040

    My guest Cale Arnold is your typical Type A "alpha male" who has ambition, hustle, and entrepreneurship in his DNA. From his fitness journey to his career in medical imaging diagnostics, Cale has always been driven and committed to excellence – maybe even a little arrogance! But God used a massive stroke to humble him and help him realize what true success looks like and where real happiness is found. Cale believes “God brought me down so I could help raise other people up”…and “the key to taking control of your life is giving control to God!”

    Maverick, Mental Toughness, and the Spiritual Benefits of 75Hard ft. Stephan du Plooy - VKP039

    Maverick, Mental Toughness, and the Spiritual Benefits of 75Hard ft. Stephan du Plooy - VKP039

    Created by billionaire entrepreneur Andy Frisella, 75Hard is a mental toughness program that has swept the nation. Thousands upon thousands of people say it changed their lives, but some naysayers criticize it as being “unsustainable” and “unhealthy.” Both Stephan du Ploy and I have completed 75Hard, enjoyed the mental and physical benefits, and believe in the program. In addition to that, we identify some spiritual benefits that result from completing the program. In this episode, we unpack our thoughts about those spiritual benefits - and engage in a brief, lively discussion about the greatest movie released in 2023.
