    328: Fresh Starts and Forgiveness: How Bitterness is Holding You Back

    In this episode, Corrine and Neil talk about what it takes to both offer and experience a fresh start. They share personal stories about letting go of bitterness, learning to forgive, and finding peace through the atonement of Jesus Christ. But they also talk about the other side of the equation: how real change happens when someone chooses to do the work, how repentance leads to transformation, and why boundaries and discernment are essential along the way. You’ll hear why C.S. Lewis’s reminder that “to be a Christian means to forgive the inexcusable” resonates so deeply, and how Corrine’s own recovery journey taught her the freedom that comes not just from forgiving, but from truly changing. Together, they explore why forgiveness doesn’t mean going back to toxic situations—but it does mean creating space for God’s grace, healing, and the possibility of lasting transformation. Whether you’ve been hurt, are working through regrets of your own, or just want to understand how change really happens, this conversation will give you hope, clarity, and encouragement to embrace the miracle of fresh starts.

    327: Baseball, Faith & Inspiring the Next Generation with Coach RAC

    In this episode, Corrine sits down with Robert Anthony Cruz, aka Coach RAC, a former Washington Nationals minor leaguer turned Savannah Bananas star, who has become known not only for his skills on the field but for the way he shares his faith, joy, and passion for inspiring the next generation. Coach RAC opens up about his journey from chasing the dream of professional baseball to discovering that true fulfillment doesn’t come from stadium lights or viral moments, but from a relationship with God. Together, they talk about rooting your worth in God instead of performance, why prayer has become central to his life (including praying for teammates by name), and how small miracles can be just as powerful as the big ones. He also shares how the Savannah Bananas have created a culture of fun, purpose, and connection, and why he believes the real “gold” in life isn’t just in reaching dreams, but in learning to be fully present today.

    326: Choosing Friends You Can Trust and Staying Away from Gossip

    In this episode, Corrine and Neil share a conversation on the kind of friendships that build trust, shape character, and help you become the person you’re meant to be. Drawing from personal experiences, scripture, and life lessons, they talk about the power of refusing to gossip, speaking kindly when others aren’t around, and surrounding yourself with people who lift you higher. They reflect on how the friends you choose can profoundly influence your habits, values, and even your spiritual growth—illustrating this through stories from their own lives, Neil’s late brother Steve, and the example of Jesus Christ intentionally choosing His closest companions. They also explore how serving alongside others can create deep, unexpected bonds and how a new school year can be a perfect opportunity for kids (and adults) to seek out positive, uplifting connections.

    Greatest Hits Rerun: The Power of Just One Friend with Fatima Dedrickson (Ep 82)

    This episode first aired as Episode 82 and quickly became one of our most talked-about conversations on friendship. As part of our Greatest Hits series, we’re bringing it back for anyone who’s ever felt like the odd one out and needs a reminder that one brave friend really can make all the difference. Have you ever felt like you’re the only one who struggles with finding good friends? That everyone else around you has built-in best friends and you’re the “odd man out?” In this episode, Corrine spoke with Fatima Dedrickson, also known by all her friends and family as “Fatty.” They talk about her experiences over the years with friendship and making the effort to be a good friend. Her stories start with being an international student at BYU who didn’t speak any English, having to take a dictionary to class and try to understand a brand new culture and language and having literally no family around and no built-in friends either. She shares her inspiring stories of bravery, putting herself out there for others to get to know and love, making the effort to be a friend, and the power ONE person can have to be someone’s ONE friend.
