    The Whispers Before The Crash

    What if life is constantly trying to get your attention... But you're too busy to listen? My guest this week, Jonathan Pleska, was building a successful life and business when he began experiencing what he calls the "whispers"—those subtle nudges telling us something isn't right, something needs to change, or we're not living in alignment with who we're truly meant to be. Like many of us, he ignored them. Then came the crash. A devastating car accident that took his life... and somehow gave it back. Join us for an unforgettable conversation about purpose, faith, second chances, identity, success, and what happens when life stops whispering and starts screaming. We'll explore: ✅ The warning signs most people ignore ✅ Success vs. significance ✅ How a near-death experience changed everything ✅ Why so many people stay stuck in lives they know aren't serving them ✅ What it means to truly live with purpose This isn't just a story about surviving an accident. It's a story about waking up before it's too late. 🎙 RAW & UNSCRIPTED with Christopher Rausch 📅 Tuesdays 🕖 7 PM PST / 10 PM EST What whisper might you be ignoring right now?

    You Are Stronger Than You Think

    You Are Stronger Than You Think After SEVEN YEARS of Raw & Unscripted… this remains one of the MOST powerful, emotional, inspiring, and talked-about episodes we’ve ever done. This conversation with Monica Kretschmer is raw humanity at its finest. We talk about: 💥 Surviving abuse and uncertainty 💥 Rebuilding your life from nothing 💥 Fear, resilience, and perseverance 💥 Why adversity can become your greatest gift 💥 Intuition, purpose, and trusting yourself 💥 The mindset shifts that help you keep going when life punches you in the face 💥 Why your struggles DO NOT define your future This isn’t fluffy motivation. This is REAL LIFE. REAL PAIN. REAL GROWTH. REAL TRANSFORMATION. If you’ve ever felt broken… If life has knocked you down… If you’re questioning your strength right now… This episode is for YOU. Sometimes the most powerful reminder we need is this: You’ve survived 100% of your worst days already. Let’s go. 🔥 #RawAndUnscripted #NoExcusesCoach #Mindset #Resilience #PersonalGrowth #OvercomingAdversity #MentalStrength #PodcastReplay #Motivation #Healing #Transformation #Leadership #Authenticity Are you subscribed to the podcast?

This week on Raw & Unscripted, Christopher Rausch takes the conversation even deeper in Part II of “The Identity Crisis Nobody Talks About.” Because awareness alone does not create transformation.

You are not trapped in the identity that fear, pain, survival, or society created for you.

  5. The Identity Crisis Nobody Talks About | Part I

    May 12

    The Identity Crisis Nobody Talks About | Part I

    Most people are not having a life crisis… They’re having an IDENTITY crisis. They built a life around who they thought they had to be: ✔ strong ✔ successful ✔ productive ✔ needed ✔ responsible ✔ accepted But beneath all of that is a deeper question: “Is this REALLY who I am?” This week on Raw & Unscripted, Christopher Rausch dives deep into one of the most important conversations we can have: 👉 How your identity was created 👉 Childhood conditioning & survival patterns 👉 Why many personalities are actually protection mechanisms 👉 Pain-based & achievement-based identities 👉 Why people lose themselves in roles, titles, relationships, and success 👉 The modern identity crisis fueled by social media, comparison, and societal pressure You may discover the version of yourself you’ve been defending… was never truly YOU to begin with. Videocast Replay Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o2e38DZcL1E This is not surface-level motivation. This is deep self-awareness, transformation, and truth. If you’ve ever wondered: ❓ Why do I keep repeating the same patterns? ❓ Why do I feel disconnected from myself? ❓ Why do I still feel empty even after achieving success? ❓ Who AM I without the mask, role, or title? This episode may change how you see your entire life.
