    171. Closing the Chapter of Journey To Authenticity w/ Braiden Belnap

    In this special episode, I share an important update that Journey to Authenticity is coming to an end for now. This podcast has been one of the most meaningful projects of my life, and I am deeply grateful for the conversations, growth, and incredible people it has brought into my world. Through this journey, I have learned so much about what it means to live authentically, to listen deeply, and to embrace every season of life with purpose. As I step back, it is to make space for new projects, new opportunities, and to spend more time connecting within my community. This is not a goodbye but a shift that feels right and full of possibility. Thank you for being part of this journey, for listening, sharing, and supporting along the way. The best chapters are always written when we follow where our hearts are leading next.

    In this episode of Journey to Authenticity, we sit down with JC Cassata, a man whose story is built on resilience, faith, and determination. JC opens up about his early years, sharing how his grandpa played a powerful role in shaping his drive for business and success. His grandpa’s example left a lasting impression on him—teaching him the value of hard work, perseverance, and chasing dreams with purpose. But life took a hard turn when JC lost his grandpa at just 16 years old. That loss pushed him into one of the most challenging chapters of his life—moving out on his own and facing periods of being homeless. Instead of letting hardship define him, JC used it as fuel to create a different future. He found ways to make money, kept pushing forward, and eventually built a path of growth, success, and entrepreneurship. Alongside his business journey, JC also shares his story of faith. His relationship with God and his belief in Jesus Christ became a source of strength, guiding him through both personal struggles and triumphs. His story is one of grit, faith, and the courage to never give up—no matter the odds. If you’re looking for inspiration to rise above challenges and lean into faith, this conversation is for you.

    165. Designing a Life of Authenticity Beyond the Kitchen w/Tyler Stokes & Braiden Belnap

    What does it really take to chase your passion and create a life that feels authentic? In this episode of Journey to Authenticity I sit down with Tyler Stokes, a renowned chef and successful restaurant owner, to uncover the story behind his journey. Tyler did not take the traditional path. He apprenticed his way up in the culinary world, working tirelessly to master his craft and build something extraordinary. But his story is not just about food. Growing up on a farm gave him a strong work ethic and perspective that shaped who he is today. More importantly, Tyler has committed himself to breaking negative generational patterns in parenting so his kids can grow up with love, intention, and freedom to be themselves. This conversation goes beyond the kitchen. It is about what it means to truly design your life, not by chance but by choice. Tyler shares wisdom on how to dream bigger, take bold steps forward, and stay true to your passions even when life gets hard. If you have ever felt stuck or unsure of how to create the life you imagine this episode will inspire you to take action and believe in what is possible.

    164. How to Stop Wasting the Moments That Matter Most w/Maeghan Belnap & Braiden Belnap

    On this week’s episode of Journey to Authenticity, I’m joined by a very special guest—my wife, Maeghan Belnap. Together, we open up about a topic that affects so many of us: the way we often waste or take time for granted without even realizing it. Life moves fast, and it’s easy to get caught up in the hustle, only to look back wishing we had been more present in the moments that truly matter. In this heartfelt conversation, Maeghan and I share our own experiences—moments we wish we had slowed down for, times we wish we had savored more deeply—and the lessons we’ve learned along the way. We also talk about the tools and daily practices we use to stay grounded, intentional, and present in our lives today. This episode isn’t just a reminder to cherish time; it’s an invitation to shift your perspective and embrace the gift of being present. Whether you’re a parent, a spouse, or simply someone striving to live more fully, we hope our journey encourages you to stop letting time slip by and start living with purpose, gratitude, and awareness.  Connect with us! • Braiden’s Website: https://www.braidenbelnap.com/  • Braiden’s Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braidenbelnap/  • Braiden’s Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BraidenBelnap  • Braiden’s TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@braidenbelnap  • Braiden’s LinkedIn:  https://www.linkedin.com/in/braiden-belnap-09075a146/
