    142 | No More Perfect Marriage: Beyond the Cat and Dog Attachment Cycle | Author and Marriage Experts Jill and Mark Savage

    In this episode, Lantz Howard sits down with authors and marriage experts Jill and Mark Savage, and the author of 14 books, No More Perfect Marriage. Together, they explore how attachment styles shape our marriages, leadership, and emotional presence—often without us realizing it. Jill and Mark unpack the familiar “cat and dog” dynamic—anxious pursuit and avoidant withdrawal—and how these patterns quietly fuel conflict, distance, and misunderstanding. Drawing from decades of marriage ministry, personal story, and clinical insight, they invite couples and leaders to move beyond performance, perfection, and coping strategies into secure attachment, honest connection, and lasting intimacy. This conversation is especially relevant for high-capacity leaders and husbands who are successful externally but longing for a deeper connection at home. Rather than offering quick fixes, this episode calls men and women into courageous self-awareness, emotional maturity, and a marriage rooted in grace—not perfection.

    141 | Ancient Wisdom for a Distracted Age | Author and Pastor Mark Moore

    In this conversation, Lantz Howard sits down with Mark Moore, pastor, teacher, and author of Core 52 , Quest 52, Wisdom 52, and more to explore why biblical wisdom isn’t information to master—but formation to live into. Together, they unpack the difference between knowledge and wisdom, why so many leaders are spiritually informed yet inwardly exhausted, and how a slow, intentional engagement with Scripture can stabilize the soul in a distracted, accelerated world. Mark shares insights from decades of teaching and pastoring, emphasizing the power of weekly rhythms, long obedience, and letting God’s Word shape not just beliefs—but desires, decisions, and leadership presence. This episode is a call back to depth over hustle, formation over performance, and wisdom that actually holds when life and leadership get heavy. Perfect for leaders, husbands, pastors, and high-capacity men who want more than quick inspiration—they want lives that are rooted, resilient, and whole. Coaching that aligns identity, marriage, and vocation for extraordinary success. www.lantzhoward.com

    140 | Artificial Buoyancy: Why Leaders Settle in Marriage—and How Not To | CEO of C12 Mike Sharrow

    Take your FREE High Performance Marriage Scan -- Faith-driven leaders often win at work while quietly running a deficit at home. In this conversation, C12 CEO Mike Sharrow joins Lantz Howard to unpack why so many high-capacity Christian CEOs experience “artificial buoyancy” in marriage—appearing stable because of spiritual convictions and financial margin, while intimacy atrophies. Mike shares C12’s peer-advisor model, their marriage check-in, and a vision for business as ministry that re-centers the CEO to stay focused on Jesus. From the “locker room vs. field of play” church metaphor to a military-grade picture of vulnerability in marriage, this episode invites leaders to run into the storm, tell the truth, and build the only enterprise guaranteed to outlast the P&L: the family. -- To get started working with Lantz Howard as your coach go to his website www.lantzhoward.com or get started by filling out the FREE High Performance Marriage Scan -- If you found this conversation helpful, share it with one friend that you care about and let them know which section of the conversation to listen to and apply. -- Lantz Howard is a Marriage Transformation Coach for Entrepreneurs, CEO's, and high-achieving men. www.lantzhoward.com

    In this episode of The Wholehearted Leadership Coaching Conversation, Lantz Howard sits down with Peter Greer, CEO of Hope International and author of more than a dozen books including Mission Drift and Lead with Prayer. Together, they explore the challenges leaders face in staying aligned with their true calling, how to avoid mission drift, and the practical rhythms that help leaders finish the race . Top 5 Learnings 1. Mission Drift is Subtle but Inevitable Without GuardrailsOrganizations and leaders don’t wake up one day far off track — it happens through slow drift unless intentional practices anchor them to mission. 2. Prayer is Leadership’s LifelineLeadership isn’t just about strategy and execution. Sustained influence requires cultivating intimacy with God through prayer as the first work, not the afterthought. 3. Marriage Reveals Leadership HealthThe way leaders engage their spouse and family is often the most honest reflection of how aligned their leadership truly is. 4. Leaders Must Finish Well, Not Just Start StrongMany leaders begin with passion and vision but burn out or compromise later. The goal is long obedience in the same direction, finishing the race with integrity. 5. Alignment Requires Community and AccountabilityIsolation is a risk for leaders. Having trusted guides, peers, and rhythms of accountability keeps the heart calibrated to God’s purposes. well.
