    What Your Secret Struggle Is Really Costing You - Episode 272

    Addiction destroys in the dark. Freedom begins in the light. This week on the Known Legacy Podcast, Brian Becker — certified executive coach, author, and speaker — joins Bill and Travis for a raw and powerful conversation about addiction, confession, healing, and restoration. For years, Brian kept his struggle with pornography hidden, believing silence would protect him and his family. Instead, it slowly eroded trust, intimacy, and connection. In this episode, Brian courageously shares the moment he finally confessed the truth, the painful aftermath that followed, and the incredible freedom, healing, and hope God brought through honesty and surrender. If you or someone you know is battling addiction, shame, secrecy, or isolation, this conversation is a reminder that healing is possible and no one is too far gone for redemption.

In this powerful interview, Jay shares his heart, his story, and why this mission means so much to him.

    From Broken to Blessed: The Powerful Story of Dr. John Trent - Episode 268

    Not everyone gets the happy childhood or strong family they dreamed of. Dr. John Trent, founder of StrongFamilies, grew up without ever knowing his father until later in life. The pain and confusion from that absence shaped his early years — until a godly man stepped into his life and introduced him to Jesus. But the trials didn’t stop there. Years later, John faced one of a father’s greatest fears — a wayward daughter. Through unwavering love, persistent prayer, and trust in God, he fought for restoration… and saw it happen. This is a powerful story of redemption, forgiveness, healing, and legacy — proof that God can turn deep brokenness into blessing.
