    35K | 1on1 | The Leadership Habits That Are Slowly Breaking Your Culture | w/ Global Leadership Coach Liz Townsend

    In this one-on-one conversation, I sit down with Liz Townsend, a senior partner at a global management consulting firm, Gallup-certified strengths coach, former VP of 24 Hour Fitness, former COO of MyFitFoods, and current board member of Junior Achievement of Southeast Texas. Liz has spent decades inside high-growth, high-pressure organizations, from small teams to billion-dollar brands helping leaders navigate the real challenges that don’t show up on spreadsheets: mindset, communication breakdowns, unresolved conflict, cultural drift, and the personal cost of leadership. In this episode, we talk honestly about: Why company culture breaks long before the numbers do The leadership habits that quietly stall growth in small businesses How self-awareness and strengths-based leadership change the way teams perform The difference between managing people and actually leading them What strong leaders do differently when conflict shows up Why personal growth is not optional if you want to scale a business This conversation is for entrepreneurs, small business owners, executives, and team leaders who want to grow without burning out their people or themselves. It’s practical, grounded, and rooted in real-world experience, not theory. If you’re building something meaningful and feel the weight of leadership, this episode will help you gain clarity, reduce friction, and lead with more confidence and intention.

    REBUILT | EP027 | How to be the Dad Your Kids Feel Safe With

    If you’ve ever wondered, “Is it too late to be the dad my kids need?” this episode is for you. So many men carry quiet regret about their parenting. Missed games. Short tempers. Long work hours. Seasons where survival mode took over and presence slipped. And most dads assume the window closed … that the past defines the relationship forever. It doesn’t. In this episode of REBUILT, we talk honestly about what actually matters now not what you wish you’d done differently then. This isn’t about shame or perfection. It’s about understanding how kids (at every age) experience safety, repair, and connection and how dads can lead with strength, humility, and presence moving forward. You’ll hear: Why worrying about being “enough” is often a sign you’re already a good dad How to rebuild trust and connection without reliving or defending the past What kids actually need from their dad emotionally (and why it’s never too late) Simple language dads can use with children, teens, or adult kids to open safe conversations How God’s heart as a Father reframes our fear of getting it wrong This episode is especially for dads who feel caught in the middle between how they were raised and the dad they’re trying to become. Between wanting to lead with strength and fearing they’ve already failed. Brother, nothing about this makes you a bad dad. The fact that you care means something is still very much alive here. This conversation is about repair over regret. Presence over perfection. And becoming the steady, grounded father your kids can feel ... starting now.

    REBUILT | EP026 | The Silent Fear Most Dads Carry

    Most dads don’t feel like they’re failing, they feel unsure. Unsure if they’re doing this right. Unsure why their kids melt down at home. Unsure why transitions feel so hard. Unsure if they’re giving their kids what they actually need emotionally, not just practically. In this episode of REBUILT, we talk about what kids are really asking for from their dad not through words, but through behavior. Because what often looks like defiance, shutdown, or chaos is usually something much deeper: a nervous system looking for safety. This conversation isn’t about being a perfect parent or following trends. It’s about understanding why kids behave the way they do at different stages and how dads can become a steady anchor instead of taking it personally or reacting from frustration. You’ll hear: Why kids often “fall apart” with dad and why that’s not a bad sign What’s actually happening in a child’s nervous system during transitions, overstimulation, or emotional outbursts How simple presence, routines, and regulation from a dad shape long-term emotional security Why bedtime, reunions, and daily rituals matter more than we’ve been taught How dads can lead with strength and compassion without losing authority This episode is for dads who care deeply especially those who didn’t grow up with a clear blueprint of what emotional safety looked like. You don’t need perfect words, advanced psychology, or to undo the past. You just need awareness, consistency, and the courage to show up. Brother, if you’ve ever wondered if you’re enough as a dad ... start here.

    REBUILT | EP025 | Peace Is The Signal: How Men Know They Are Walking with God

    If you’ve been doing everything you were told would work—grinding, pushing, staying disciplined, trying to stay faithful—and yet you still feel tired, scattered, or stuck… this episode is for you. This conversation is not about quitting effort or ignoring responsibility. It’s about the quiet truth many men are afraid to admit: forcing life out of fear will drain you, even when you’re doing “the right things.” In this final episode of the week, we bring closure to the tension between hustle culture and faith by naming what most men were never taught to look for—peace as a signal of alignment with God. We talk honestly about: Why hustle and manifestation sound empowering but often come from fear and control How men confuse pressure with purpose The difference between disciplined action and fear-driven forcing Why rest isn’t laziness, but alignment How God’s peace—not anxiety—is meant to guide your decisions This episode is an invitation to breathe again. To stop punishing yourself. To trust that you are not behind—you’re being redirected. If you’ve been living with constant internal pressure, second-guessing every decision, or feeling like God is distant because you’re exhausted… this episode will help you reframe effort, faith, and identity in a way that brings clarity instead of more striving. You are a good man. You are not broken. And you don’t have to force what God is already leading.

    REBUILT | EP023 | Why Hustle Culture Is Breaking Men (And the Truth About Trusting God)

    The pressure to perform is breaking men, and most don’t even realize it. This episode is for the man who feels like no matter how hard he works, it never feels like enough. The man who can’t fully rest without guilt. The man whose mind never shuts off because deep down, he believes if he doesn’t push harder, everything will fall apart. In this conversation, we unpack the quiet tension so many men live with: Do I grind harder… or do I trust God? Hustle culture tells men their worth is tied to output. Performance-based faith tells men God only blesses obedience. Caught in the middle, men end up anxious, exhausted, and constantly questioning if they’re falling behind or failing God. But Scripture tells a different story. We explore what it actually means to live with a sound mind, not a busy one, and why mental and emotional rest are not signs of laziness, but signals of trust. You’ll learn how fear-driven effort keeps the nervous system stuck in overdrive, why rest can feel unsafe for high-performing men, and how alignment with God creates clarity, peace, and forward movement without forcing outcomes. This episode directly challenges hustle culture, reframes discipline through faith, and offers reassurance to men who feel trapped between ambition and belief. It’s not about doing less, it’s about stopping the internal punishment that keeps you exhausted no matter what you do. If you’ve ever felt guilty for slowing down, anxious even when things are going well, or afraid that God is disappointed in you, this conversation will help you breathe again. You are not broken. God is not angry with you. And you don’t have to earn rest or worth.
