What if the greatest spiritual practice is simply letting Jesus love us?

In this powerful conversation with our friend Michael Cusick, we explore the deep connection between spiritual formation, attachment, and the embodied experience of God's love. We talk about how trauma, distraction, and striving can keep us from truly being present—to ourselves, to others, and to God. Together, we unpack how detachment, stillness, and grace-filled rhythms open us up to experiencing the peace and freedom Jesus offers. This isn't about trying harder—it’s about trusting more deeply. Join us as we learn what it means to be loved into loving.

Are we overwhelmed, underwhelmed… or is there a better way?

In this episode, we sit down with Alan Briggs—coach, author, and founder of Stay Forth—to unpack the tension we all feel between exhaustion and disengagement. From sabbaticals to daily rhythms, Alan shares what it means to live a “whelmed” life: not redlining, not coasting, but being fully present to what God’s uniquely called us to. We explore how clarity, courage, and co-designing our lives with God can lead to deeper freedom and impact. This conversation will challenge the lies we believe about leadership, pace, and purpose—and offer a new vision of health rooted in grace and intention.

What if you’re chasing the wrong win?

In this episode, we sit down with John Olinger—former Nike exec, leadership coach, and author of Worthy Wins—to unpack what it means to succeed in the areas that matter most. From high-stakes marketing at Nike to the raw wake-up call of losing his father, John shares how redefining success radically reshaped his life.

We dive into his "worthy wins" framework, explore the tension between work and relationships, and talk practically about how to reverse-engineer your life toward what truly counts. Along the way, John offers deeply personal insights about marriage, fatherhood, spiritual formation, and a legendary Kobe Bryant lesson that mirrors the way of Jesus.

This episode is an invitation to name what matters—and live like it does.
