  • Designed to Win: Discovering Your True Identity in Christ
    May 15 2026

    Dara, the host of the Designed to Win podcast, shares her journey of faith, identity, and healing. While walking outdoors, she opens up about struggling to choose a niche, using multiple gifts, and how Scripture and life experiences — including homelessness, loss, and car accidents — shaped her purpose. She encourages listeners to be still, lean into God, and find hope, practical solutions, and purpose in their pain.

  • From Overwhelm to Action: Beating Procrastination One Step at a Time
    May 8 2026

    On a walk with his dog, the host reflects on a podcast about his book on procrastination, arguing that fear and chronic overwhelm—fueled by a "microwave" culture of constant busyness—keeps people stuck.

    He suggests slowing down, embracing rest, and noticing the simple rhythms of life (like a dog’s unhurried walk) as practical ways to move from paralysis to purposeful action.

  • Finish Strong: One Step at a Time
    May 1 2026

    Host offers a brief, heartfelt message for teachers, students, and parents as the school year winds down, reminding listeners to keep going and not give up.

    Drawing on Galatians 6:9, the episode emphasizes taking things one step at a time, finding small moments of joy, and encouraging one another to finish the year strong.

    Host Dara draws on her experience as a parent and educator to explain why children who avoid work often aren’t lazy but may struggle with dyslexia, ADHD, executive function, or overwhelm. Labels can damage confidence, and understanding the root causes matters.

    The episode offers practical steps: ask “what’s getting in the way,” break tasks into small steps, use routines and planners, lean on strength-based learning, and create a safe space and community support to help kids succeed.
