    Told She Was Fine: Dr. Shakeeka Misher on Perimenopause, Faith, and Being Heard

    Dr. Shakeeka Misher has spent nearly two decades caring for women, from labor and delivery units to home births to fertility care. Then her own body began to change. She didn't feel like herself, but her labs came back normal and she was told it was just stress. That experience sent her into the research, made her an advocate for herself and her patients, and eventually led her to found Thryva Wellness in El Paso, a practice built openly on her Christian faith, down to the prayer station inside. In this conversation with Tiffany Etterling, Shakeeka shares why nursing taught her to keep faith out of the room, what changed when she stopped hiding it, and how she rebuilds trust with women who have felt dismissed. It's a conversation for women in midlife and for the people who love and work alongside them. This episode is for general information and education only and is not medical advice. Please talk with your own qualified healthcare provider before making decisions about your care.   Connect with Dr. Shakeeka Misher and Thryva Wellness   Website: https://thryvablueprint.com/thryvawellness Free 7-Day Reset guide: https://thryvablueprint.com/7dayreset   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thryvawellness/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61568103876300 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/shakeekamisher   Find more conversations at https://323podcast.com The 323 Podcast is Sponsored by C12 Borderplex.

    Same Calling, New Setting: Kevin J. Dorman on Ministry, Insurance, and Caring for Employees

    Kevin J. Dorman spent 11 years in full-time ministry, much of it with middle school and high school students, before becoming an employee benefits broker with Higginbotham Insurance in El Paso. He shares why his calling as an ambassador for Christ didn't change when his work did, and how hard it was to leave the ministry career he expected to have for life. Kevin also walks through how business owners can care for their employees through benefits at almost any size and budget, and why teaching people to use their benefits matters as much as offering them. He closes with what God has been teaching him through Jeremiah 9:23-24 about boasting in the Lord instead of in strength or riches, plus a few honest words about being a Dallas Cowboys fan.

    My Life Is None of My Business: TJ Karam on Sobriety, Surrender, and Trusting God

    TJ Karam is an El Paso entrepreneur and actor whose work spans real estate, construction, a Colorado outfitting business, and Kingland Timepieces. He's also 13 years sober. TJ shares how losing his dad in 2009 sent him deeper into addiction, and how a 12-step rehab in 2013 helped him find a faith that was his own after years of feeling like it had been forced on him. He talks about building an acting career in Chicago, coming home for spring break in 2020 and never leaving, and what it looks like to work faithfully in a field that isn't his passion. If you've ever struggled to hand God control of your plans, you'll appreciate his honesty about learning to cast his cares and start every morning on his knees.

    Carry the Weight: Jonathan David Lewis on Character, Identity, and the Story of Work

    Jonathan David Lewis is president of McKee Wallwork, an Albuquerque branding agency, and the author of The Rebuilders, a book of short daily readings for leaders walking through hard seasons. His firm recently finished a national study of 3,000 workers, and what they found is a workforce that feels transactional, futureless, and suffering, living inside an old story of work that no longer holds together. Jonathan shares how a difficult year in 2018 taught him that every decision shapes character, the warning signs that a company is quietly losing its identity, and why his faith keeps pulling his work and his calling back together. If you lead young people at work or at home and wonder why the old motivators don't land anymore, his practical encouragement to become the chief storyteller for your team is worth your time.

    Get Out of Your Own Way: Marcia Jerry on Surrender, Identity, and Restored Ground

    Marcia Jerry is the founder of Above All Cost and the author of Restored Ground, a book that names the relationships and patterns we've learned to call familiar, even when they were never meant to feel normal. Marcia and Tiffany share a connection back to Azusa Pacific University, and Marcia's own path wound from the Bay Area to Houston before God settled her in El Paso, right where a 2019 list of dreams eventually led her. In this conversation, Marcia unpacks the four things her book identifies as the patterns that keep people stuck in unhealthy relationships, familiar, enough, alone, and reality, and walks through how each one shows up not just at home, but on our teams and in our workplaces. She and Tiffany also talk candidly about imposter syndrome, what it looks like for a leader to actually practice what they preach, and why letting go of a plan you've held tightly can be the start of something better than you imagined. Connect with Marcia on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/aboveallcost and on TikTok at https://www.tiktok.com/@aboveallcosts. Find Restored Ground on Amazon at https://a.co/d/04H6dWdb, or locally in El Paso at Christian Outlets.

    It's a Lie: Jonathan Lopez and Drew Harris on Business Success and Personal Financial Health

    Jonathan Lopez and Drew Harris of Truvize Financial are back on the 323 Podcast, and this time they're asking a question a lot of successful business owners would rather not answer. Can your company be thriving while your personal finances are a mess? Jonathan and Drew walk through why a healthy income statement doesn't automatically mean a healthy household, the behavioral traps that hit entrepreneurs harder than employees, and why building a buffer at home matters just as much as building one in the business. They also get practical, talking through tools like Monarch Money and how AI can help you actually see where your money is going. Toward the end, they connect it all back to Joseph storing up during the years of plenty, and why honesty with yourself is the one habit that changes everything.

    Father, Husband, Everything Else: Steve Hayes on Leadership, Identity, and Service

    Steve Hayes spent over three decades in uniform, first in the Air Force and then as a U.S. Marshal, before trading his badge for business as the owner of Signal of El Paso. In this episode, he talks about what changed and what stayed the same when he moved from leading in federal law enforcement to leading a security company that has grown from two employees to more than one hundred in just two years, with locations now in El Paso and Albuquerque. He's honest about the weight of making decisions with nobody looking over his shoulder, the mistake that cost him sixty thousand dollars in his first year, and why he still picks up a shift himself when the schedule comes up short. Steve also shares the question that reset his sense of identity after decades of defining himself by a title: what do you want on your tombstone? It's a good conversation for any leader trying to build something that lasts without losing themselves in the process.

    The Illusion of Control: Jonathan Lopez and Drew Harris on Business Risk and Retirement

    Jonathan Lopez and Drew Harris, the team behind True Vise Financial, are back on The 323 Podcast to talk about a risk most business owners never see coming: building a company that quietly becomes their entire retirement plan. They dig into why the average owner has 70 to 80 percent of their net worth tied up in a single business, why that concentration is riskier than most owners realize, and why only 20 to 30 percent of businesses listed for sale ever actually sell. Jonathan and Drew share how they help clients separate personal wealth from business wealth, build real liquidity outside the company, and ask a question most advisers never bring up: what would the next leader do with this money? It's a practical, honest conversation for any business owner who has never stopped to ask how much of their future is riding on one asset.
