    #147 Megan Nilsen on Faith, Resilience, and the Power of a Supportive Marriage

    "Motherhood isn’t my highest calling—my connection to God is." Megan Nilsen’s journey as a mother to both biological and adopted children is a testament to the power of faith, resilience, and a marriage built on true partnership.  After an international adoption brought unforeseen challenges, Megan found herself questioning everything. In those moments, her husband recognized her need for deeper support and encouraged her to seek counseling, showing that real strength in marriage means knowing when to lean on others. For Megan, the essence of a strong partnership is seeing each other fully and lifting each other up. She’s learned that while motherhood is a sacred role, her true purpose is in staying connected to God. This grounding allows her to give fully to her family without losing herself. By focusing on “filling her cup” with what renews her spirit, Megan is able to live and give abundantly. Megan’s story reminds us all that a thriving marriage and family are built on faith, humility, and a commitment to truly supporting one another. Real fulfillment is found in nurturing a deep connection to God and in showing up wholeheartedly for those we love.

    #145 Mark Collins on Moving Beyond Habit Formation to Real Transformation

    In this week’s episode, Justin welcomes Mark Collins, author of Life Mastery, for a discussion on what it truly means to transform. After reading Mark’s book, Justin realized how society often promotes building habits while overlooking the deeper process of personal transformation. Together, they unpack the difference between habit formation and real, lasting change. Mark blends practical wisdom with biblical truth, emphasizing that transformation is more than checking off tasks—it’s about becoming who you were created to be. “You’re either living for who you are or what the world says you are,” Mark shares, reminding us that if we don’t know our true identity, the world will define it for us. Mark encourages listeners to reflect on the idea, "I am enough because…" and to recognize that our worth goes beyond accomplishments or careers. Real change begins by shifting how we think about ourselves. As Mark says, “If you want to change your life…change your thoughts first.” The episode is filled with insights about pursuing passions without external pressure and embracing transformation as a journey, not a destination. If you're seeking more from life than just surface-level changes, this conversation will inspire you to step into your true self.   Purchase Mark’s Book Life Mastery Connect with Mark: https://courses.freedom-for-life.net This podcast is brought to you by The CL Thomas Fellowship non-profit.

    #143 Dr. Tanner Moore on Seeking Responsibility and Being a Savage Servant

    As healthcare costs soar and the system grows more complicated, patients are losing trust, and doctors are burning out. Dr. Tanner, a direct primary care physician, is changing that narrative. In a conversation with Justin, he explains what it means to be a “savage servant” for his patients—challenging the traditional healthcare model to offer something better: care that’s personal, effective, and free from red tape. For Dr. Tanner, the DPC model is more than just a business structure—it’s a lifeline for both doctors and patients. By removing insurance companies from the equation, DPC creates a membership-based relationship where doctors have the freedom to truly serve their patients’ needs. Dr. Tanner’s philosophy is simple: find a way or make one. He believes this is a time for innovation in healthcare, Tanner creates an environment where people feel supported and heard. For Dr. Tanner, being a “savage servant” means shouldering the responsibility of improving the lives of those he cares for.  His commitment to the DPC model shows that healthcare can be different, and his vision is already creating waves in the medical community. His belief in serving his patients relentlessly is a bold reminder that healthcare isn’t just about medicine—it’s about people.   Connect with Dr. Tanner Moore: https://www.clearwaterhealthdpc.com/   This podcast is brought to you by The CL Thomas Fellowship non-profit.

    #141 Gin Burchfield on the Integration of Faith and Wellness

    Today, Justin welcomes Gin Burchfield, a health and leadership coach, who shares her blend of intuitive bodywork, somatic coaching, and faith-based healing practices. Her approach to wellness goes beyond just physical health—she integrates mindful practices, personal reflection, and spirituality to help others on their health and healing journey.   A key theme in this episode is understanding the deep connection between mind, body, and spirit. Gin emphasizes the importance of knowing yourself—what drives you, what holds you back, and what motivates you to stay on track with your health goals. She teaches that mindful practices, such as listening to your body and addressing underlying emotional blockages, are essential for long-term health.   One of the most touching moments Gin shares is the story of a doctor who prayed for her and her family before a medical procedure. That experience stuck with her, showing how faith and wellness can come together. Gin talks about how trusting in medical care and leaning on faith don’t have to be separate paths but can complement each other, offering both physical healing and spiritual support.    This conversation is a powerful reminder that healing is multifaceted, and sometimes the most meaningful transformations happen when you allow faith and wellness to work together.   Connect with Gin: https://www.ginburchfield.com/   This podcast is brought to you by The CL Thomas Fellowship non-profit.
