    What Are We Actually Chasing?

    In this episode of The Currency of Happiness, we ask an uncomfortable but necessary question. What are we actually chasing? Most people spend decades chasing more money, more success, more approval, and more proof that they are doing well. But often, the thing we are chasing is not the thing we actually want. In this episode, Andrew Rocha shares a defining season from early in his marriage. A season marked by debt, insecurity, ego, and a warehouse job that required five dollar steel toe boots from a thrift store that were a full size too small. Painful lessons followed, both literally and figuratively. Through that season, Andrew learned a truth that reshaped his life, marriage, and leadership. Character matters more than reputation. You can look successful on the outside and still be falling apart on the inside. You can be chasing achievement while quietly losing peace, alignment, and the people you love most. This episode breaks down: The difference between reputation and characterWhy success without alignment always feels emptyHow unmanaged stress spills into marriage, parenting, and leadershipWhy systems matter more than motivationHow happiness is built through intentional deposits, not achievementAndrew also walks through three practical questions everyone should ask themselves: What am I actually chasingWho am I becoming while I chase itAre my systems supporting the life I wantThis episode is for anyone who feels successful on paper but unsettled inside. For leaders, parents, and professionals who want to build a life that feels grounded, intentional, and aligned, not just impressive.

    Healing, Wholeness & Rewriting Your Life - A Conversation with Garth & Melanie Mitchell-Epp

    In this episode of The Currency of Happiness, we explore what it really means to heal, become whole and rebuild a life after everything falls apart. Some people rebuild their lives once. Garth Mitchell‑Epp and Melanie Mitchell‑Epp rebuilt theirs twice. First, individually, after seasons of divorce, identity loss, and deep brokenness. Then together as a blended family rooted in restoration, faith, and purpose. This conversation is living proof that healing is possible, wholeness is possible, and freedom is possible, no matter where you start. Andrew sits down with Garth and Melanie to unpack their personal journeys before they ever met, the hard work of becoming whole as individuals, and what it took to trust again after pain. They share honest insight into rebuilding identity, confronting lies that keep people small, and learning how to walk through healing rather than rushing past it. Together, they also discuss the realities of blending a family, navigating fear and insecurity, and building a marriage grounded in partnership and calling. From raising children to becoming grandparents, this episode explores how healing continues through every season of life. You will hear powerful insights on: Healing after divorce and personal lossRewriting identity after brokennessBecoming whole before building something newBreaking lies that limit growth and freedomBlending families with intention and graceWhat true freedom actually looks likeThis episode is for anyone who feels defined by their past, stuck in old patterns, or unsure if real change is possible.
