    Stop Living in Misalignment — Kim Costa on How Your Home Either Supports or Sabotages Your Life

    What if the home you are living in right now is quietly working against everything you are trying to build? That is the question Kim Costa starts with every single client — and tonight she is asking it on The Emily Rassam Show. Kim is a Top 5% Atlanta Realtor with Sotheby's International Realty, a Global Real Estate Advisor, host of the Live in Your Wheel House podcast, and author of Live in Your Wheel House: An Empowering Guide to Stay, Go, or Reno. But before all of that she was an accountant — and her journey from the numbers world to the world of reinvention and real estate is one of the most honest and relatable stories in this episode. Kim created the Wheelhouse Method — a framework that evaluates eight essential dimensions of life to help people make the most important home decision they will ever face: stay, go, or renovate. It is not about square footage or school districts. It is about who you are becoming — and whether the place you come home to every day is helping you get there or quietly holding you back. KEY TAKEAWAYS:"Your home is either your greatest asset or your biggest blind spot." — Kim Costa → The Wheelhouse Method — eight life dimensions that should drive every home decision you make → Stay, Go, or Reno — the framework that replaces guessing with clarity → Living in misalignment — what it costs you physically, emotionally, and professionally to stay in the wrong home → Reinvention and the home — why real personal transformation often requires a change in environment → Multi-generational living — how shared living spaces affect family dynamics in ways most families never anticipate → The pause button place — creating a space in your home that restores rather than drains you ABOUT KIM COSTA:Kim Costa is a Top 5% Realtor with Atlanta Fine Homes and Sotheby's International Realty, a 5-star Top Performer, Global Real Estate Advisor, host of the Live in Your Wheel House podcast, and author of Live in Your Wheel House: An Empowering Guide to Stay, Go, or Reno (published March 2026).

    Start Before You're Ready — Justin Bramall on Fell Running, Fatherhood, and the Bob Graham Round

    What if the thing that changes your life is not a plan — but a rediscovery? Justin Bramall did not set out to become an ultrarunner. He was a serious PC gamer well into his twenties — until fell running found him, the mountains changed him, and life eventually pulled him away from it all. Then he hit 40. And everything started again. In this episode of The Emily Rassam Show, Justin takes us through one of the most honest and inspiring journeys I have heard — from gaming to the trails, through one of the most demanding mountain challenges in the United Kingdom, and back again after years away from the sport he loved. His story is not just about running. It is about rediscovering who you are when life has quietly moved you away from yourself — and what happens when you decide to go find that person again. For listeners who have never heard of it — the Bob Graham Round is a fell running challenge in the English Lake District covering 42 mountain peaks, 66 miles, and 26,900 feet of ascent — all within 24 hours, starting and finishing at Keswick Moot Hall in northern England. Only around 3,000 people in history have ever completed it. It is one of the most respected and demanding mountain challenges in the world. Justin completed it — and then came back to run ultramarathons on top of it. The Emily Rassam Show is a weekly podcast covering parenting, business, and self-improvement — real conversations with real people doing the hard, meaningful work of building a life worth living. From entrepreneurs and athletes to nonprofit founders and thought leaders — every episode brings a story and a framework that will challenge, inspire, and move you to action.

    Does the Constitution Still Matter Today? with Joseph Cofield

    Does the United States Constitution still matter today? And do Americans truly understand the rights and responsibilities it gives us? In this episode, I sit down with Joseph Cofield, founder and president of Constitution for the People, for a wide-ranging conversation about the Constitution, the Declaration of Independence, freedom, civic responsibility, and what it means to preserve the principles our country was founded upon. Joseph brings a unique perspective shaped by his experience as a 21-year U.S. Army career Non-Commissioned Officer and educator. After his military service, he spent years teaching social studies and eventually founded Constitution for the People, a nonprofit educational organization dedicated to creating a more informed citizenry by putting the Constitution directly into the hands of students. We discuss why the Constitution remains relevant, why freedom of speech and freedom of assembly are so important, and why understanding the Bill of Rights and the amendments is essential for every American. Joseph also explains his organization's Constitution booklet program, which includes the Constitution, Declaration of Independence, and educational material designed to help students understand the document and its meaning. One of the central themes of this conversation is that freedom doesn't sustain itself simply because it exists on paper. It requires citizens who understand their rights, respect the rights of others, and are willing to participate in the civic life of their communities. LEARN MORE / SUPPORT THE MISSIONConstitution for the People constitutionforthepeople.org The organization's mission is to create a more informed citizenry by providing young Americans with their own personal copy of the United States Constitution to use in school and take home to share. If this conversation made you think differently about the Constitution, share this episode with someone who should hear it. What part of the Constitution do you think Americans understand the least?

    Sobriety Changed Everything with Scott Hayes

    What happens when sobriety gives you a second chance at life—and you decide to see just how far you can take it? In this episode, I sit down with Scott Hayes, a former Marine, ultra marathoner, student, and advocate for sobriety, to talk about the journey that changed his life. Scott opens up about his experience getting sober, the challenges of transitioning from military life to civilian life, and how running became far more than just a physical pursuit—it became a source of discipline, purpose, growth, and connection. We talk about the mental challenges of ultra marathon running and how many of those same lessons apply to everyday life. Scott shares how preparation, consistency, discipline, and learning to push through difficult moments have shaped the way he approaches sobriety, school, relationships, and his future. We also dive into his journey through school, pursuing his master's degree, mentorship, self-reflection, personal growth, and the importance of continuing to challenge yourself long after you think you've reached your limits. Scott's story is a powerful reminder that sobriety isn't simply about giving something up. It can be about discovering what your life can become when you finally have the clarity and freedom to pursue it.

    Impossible is Possible With The Outlaw Ultra Runner - Rick Horton

    He built a craft brewery from nothing on a 200-year-old New Hampshire farm. He ran it until it was done. And then he kept running — literally. Rick Horton is the founder of the former Outlaw Brewing Company — a taproom that sold out every single week during its run in Winchester, New Hampshire. Today he still lives on that same historic farm, carries the outlaw identity into every mile he runs, and goes by @outlawultrarunner for good reason. In this episode of The Emily Rassam Show, Rick opens up about what it took to build something from nothing in a small New Hampshire town, why he came days from losing the farm before it ever became anything, what closing one chapter and running full-speed into the next looks like, and what the trails give him that nothing else in his life ever has. The brewery may be on pause. The outlaw spirit is very much alive.

    Honest Money Explained with Jeff Hasselman of Kingdom Bitcoin

    What if Bitcoin is not just a financial tool — but a biblical one? That is the conversation Jeff Hasselman has been having with governments, corporate treasuries, and people of faith all over the world. And tonight he brings it to The Emily Rassam Show. Jeff Hasselman is the founder of Kingdom Bitcoin, a former Amazon Web Services executive who literally built AWS's blockchain and crypto business from a blank page into a multi-billion dollar operation in just over six years, and one of the most unique voices at the intersection of faith, finance, and frontier technology. His motto says everything you need to know about him: "If you see a blank page, be the author not the reader." In this episode Jeff takes us through his personal journey into Bitcoin, why he believes it is fundamentally different from every other financial instrument on the planet, and how the principles of biblical stewardship connect more deeply to blockchain technology than most people of faith have ever considered. He also opens up about how God communicates through visions and prayer — and how that guidance has shaped some of the most significant decisions of his professional and personal life. This is not a technical cryptocurrency conversation. This is a conversation about honest money, generational wealth, and what it means to steward what God has given you in a world where the financial system is changing faster than most people realize.

    You Are Here: How Running Rebuilt Scott Schneider's Identity, Confidence, and Future

    What if running could help you rebuild your identity, your confidence, and your entire future? That is exactly what happened to Scott Schneider — and tonight he is sharing every raw, honest, deeply human chapter of how it happened. In this powerful episode of The Emily Rassam Show, Scott opens up about going from a self-conscious kid who avoided sports entirely to completing marathons and ultramarathons — and using endurance running as the foundation for one of the most remarkable personal transformations you will hear this year. But this is not just a running story. Scott works in health and human services supporting veterans, disabled individuals, and people rebuilding their lives — and the mission that drives his professional world is inseparable from the journey he has lived personally. He talks candidly about leaving addiction behind, the turning point that came after a DNF, why "you are here" matters before you can move forward, and what it actually means to bet on yourself when the odds feel stacked against you. This one hits home. Whether you are a runner, someone in recovery, or simply someone who needs a reminder that your past does not get the final say — this conversation is for you.
