Join me as I confront what terrifies me—including launching this podcast—in hopes of unearthing truths that set us free and help recover personal authority to forge a path uniquely our own. This podcast exists to raise to light the stories, life experiences, and messages of people from everyday walks of life. No single topic—just a shared journey aiming upward. I invite you to come alongside me as I live out this journey. After all, there’s no better time than the now.

    #47 - Shawn Rose's - 5 Primal Medicines

    Shawn Rose has lived a quiet, intentional life that looks a lot like a modern-day Johnny Appleseed, and in this episode he shares just how that path unfolded. Shawn has built his life around music and nature: perhaps best known as the piano accompanist to many generations, but there is more to this man than meets the eye. He has slept in a tent for the last 19 years, climbed trees closing in on 7,000 ascents, and is quite possibly the only American I have ever met who is lucky enough to have never sent an email. Together we explore the pursuit of the 5 Primal Medicines: sun, sky, cold, dark, and earth. Primal medicines meaning how something can be medicine even when you don't think of it that way, such as how walking in the woods is anti-inflammatory. And if many diseases stem from inflammation, maybe Mother Nature has been writing us the right prescription all along. Shawn is living proof. Light-hearted, jovial, and full of wonder, just like the legend himself. Step into spring with us as we embark on a new adventure together that just may rewire your brain too.  Welcome to Episode 47.

    #46 – Dr. Marcia Perretto – Hypermobility as a Superpower

    Marcia Perretto grew up in Brazil surrounded by physicians, fell in love with medicine early, and spent years becoming one of the most globally recognized specialists in Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and hypermobility disorders. But through all that training, she kept noticing the same flaw in the medical system: patients weren’t getting the time or attention needed to address root causes. So she built something different—a holistic practice that treats the whole person, not just the symptoms. What she didn’t expect… was that she would become the patient. After nearly dying during labor, undergoing three hip surgeries, and ending up in a wheelchair, she hit a point where she wasn’t fighting to get back to the things she loved—she was fighting just to stay here. Ironically, the hip specialist had to learn how to walk again. What followed was more than seven years of rebuilding—one small, unglamorous win at a time—until the day she returned to what she loves: line dancing, horseback riding, running, and weightlifting. I met Dr. Perretto when I was living in Florida and starting to lose hope. She helped me see that getting back to the life I love is actually possible. Her experience as a patient didn’t just change her perspective—it made her a far better doctor. In her words, it was one of the greatest blessings in disguise… and something she would go through all over again. This is an honest conversation between two people living in hypermobile bodies—what it’s like to navigate chronic pain, the ego, healing, and what it really takes to get better. The lessons go far beyond hypermobility. Whatever you’re healing from—this one’s for you. Welcome to Episode 46.

    #45 - Darryl Hasen - Underdog

    On the surface, it’s easy to assume Darryl is fulfilling a predestined path, given he is the descendant of many Bryn Athyn “Greats.” But that version of the story misses the point entirely. To truly understand Darryl today, you have to meet the 16-year-old version of him in the mid-90s—a shorter, overweight, average student who made a quiet decision one summer day to start running laps around a baseball field. Then another. Then another. That choice—to take ownership of his health, his grades, his future—set everything in motion. From there, the trajectory changed: he set his sights on Wall Street, made it into Babson College’s lacrosse record books, fell in love over email with his future wife, and graduated top 3% of his college class. Rejection was never a stop sign for Darryl; it was fuel. The moment someone said he couldn't, the challenge was on. What he didn't expect was that surviving 80-hour investment banking weeks would become something deeper: a spiritual journey of self-discovery. After years learning from the greats, finding his voice, and developing his craft, Darryl did what most only talk about — he fulfilled his dreams by building and launching his own hedge fund, Arcana Partners, from scratch. The investing world talks about compounding interest. Darryl applied those same principles–making small changes, betting on himself, and letting them compound into a beautiful life he’s built for himself, his family, and community.

    #44 - Brenna Synnestvedt - Cure Chiroptophobia

    My friends and I love to thrift, and Brenna Synnestvedt has been part of The Bryn Athyn Thrift Shop (better known as BATS), my personal favorite, for the past 25 years, recently taking on management. She thrives on supporting the 90 volunteers and 7 staff to find their niche, transforming a simple thrift store into so much more than a place to donate unwanted items. On the surface, BATS might seem like just a spot for "spring-cleaning donations," with proceeds benefiting the Bryn Athyn Church. But as Brenna explains, it’s a vibrant community where people born in 72 different countries come together to belong. Brenna has traveled to 42 countries, and in her early 20s, she lived in Bangkok, supporting refugees fleeing the Vietnam War. After marrying Chris Nunez, they returned to Thailand to continue refugee work, served together as Peace Corps volunteers on Guadalcanal in the Solomon Islands, and later lived in Romania, where Chris worked with the Peace Corps. These experiences fit with her lifelong fascination with people and cultures, a perspective she has shared with her kids, Reece and Raika. Today, she channels that curiosity into helping to make a space where everyone feels welcome.  Welcome to episode forty-four.

    #43 - Stephen D. Cole - The Polymath Pastor

    Stephen D. Cole is a jack of all trades, descended from a lineage of brilliant minds. His father, Dandridge MacFarlan Cole, was a notable rocket scientist and futurist (look him up on Wikipedia!) who focused on practical space colonization concepts like hollowed-out asteroids for human habitats. Stephen grew up out west, fell in love with the outdoors, and then moved east for his father’s work. As a kid, he commuted to Philadelphia to use early punch-card computers. At 14, his father didn’t come home, leaving behind a wife and six kids. The loss stayed with him, as did his father’s influence. Today, Stephen is a pastor-turned-professor who finds wonder in symbolic forms, cognitive science, and just about everything, really. We explored consciousness and whether AI could ever truly be conscious, linguistics, being counter-cultural, surprising ties between church history and the zodiac, and much more... I can assure you of one thing: Stephen will stretch your mind. Mine is still in recovery. I have never met someone who recalls information with such depth, accuracy, and articulation.

    #42 - Mare Odhner - La Regina e il Cuore dell’Accademia

    For more than 30 years, Mare Odhner was the heart of the Academy school store. From behind the counter, she ran more than a place to buy books and grab snacks — it became a hub of student life. A place where students came to laugh, vent, get advice, and feel at home. Generations of students knew her on a first-name basis — Mare — and if you passed through the Academy during those years, chances are you knew her too. Mare shares her life beyond the bookstore — immigrating from Italy, growing up in South Philadelphia, blending faith traditions, and the love she shared with her late husband, Tony. We talk about what the Academy community meant to her, the realities of being a full-time caregiver for her mother today, and how cooking is reconnecting her to her Italian roots. Plus, Mare helps bring back show-and-tell, sharing a look at her growing bourbon collection and much more...

    #41 - Brendan Pitcairn - Create A Village

    Brendan Pitcairn grew up as the kid who didn’t quite have his tribe yet. So he went into the woods—spending his time fishing and hunting. What began as isolation and escape slowly became mastery—and eventually purpose. Today, Brendan is a husband, father, outdoorsman, and mentor passionate about guiding the next generation of boys back toward adventure, brotherhood, and the natural and spiritual world. Along the way he worked in the mental health field serving low-income families and faced a life-altering diagnosis of complex regional pain syndrome—often called the “suicide disease” because of its severity—shortly after becoming a father. Through it all, Brendan says the best decision he ever made was marrying his wife, who has walked beside him through pain, healing, and raising their twin sons. In this conversation, Brendan reflects on faith, friendship, and finding your tribe. After his uncle passed, one of Brendan’s 10 year olds comforted him with simple certainty: “Don’t worry, Dad, everything's okay. He’s in heaven now, happy, and free from his earthly body.” In that moment, one thought kept coming back to him: this is why we pay for this tuition. Welcome to episode forty-one.

    #40 - Owen Frazier - "When I'm Ready" Is Too Late

    Owen Frazier might seem like just the guy you bring your car to but he’s built a life far beyond that. As the oldest of nine, Owen learned early that if he wanted something, he had to go out and get it. His love for cars and career obsession started around five years old in Austria, flipping through Mercedes , Volkswagen, and BMW annual reports and calling out the names of cars as they whizzed by. In high school, Owen wasn’t just focused on grades—he was growing his startup, Frazier Landscaping. By his first semester of college, he sold it and, realizing the traditional path wasn’t for him, dropped out and headed west to chase his dreams. There he attended a high-performance automotive program, earned a certification, and boldly called the owner of Auto Tronics, Twist, saying, “I’ll see you Monday.” That move ultimately led him to become a part-owner of the company. At 35, Owen has been with his 8th-grade sweetheart for 22 years. Reflecting on his life, he emphasizes that neither he nor his parents ever waited until they were “ready.” His advice: if you wait until you’re ready, it’s too late—whether it’s having kids, starting a business, you name it. Owen is now the youngest Academy board member and credits much of his success to the unique role models and village that helped raise him. A fun, refreshing conversation with a young dad sharing his story and what truly matters to him. Welcome to milestone episode forty!
