Mark is one of the most quietly remarkable people I’ve ever known and in this conversation he shares the kind of wisdom that only comes from lived out experience.

We go deep on identity. What proximity to large sums of money actually does to a person. The real cost of mastery. Why most people are knocking on doors they were never meant to open and one question that reframed everything for me:

“Every person lives their life from an identity — whether they admit it or not. It will affect everything you are and every decision you make.”

A new playbook for getting clarity around money, meaning and momentum.

I wanted to sit down with Cole LaBrant and talk about parenting because he is one of the most intentional dads I know.

Two dads. Ten kids between us. Both of us in the middle of it.

We talked about what it actually means to show up for your kids. The fear every dad carries but nobody says out loud. Why connection has to be built before it's needed. And the moment my daughter looked at me and said — Dad. I trust you.

Juice boxes included.

This one's for the dads.

A new playbook for getting clarity around money, meaning and momentum.

My next guest is Leslie Harter-Berg! She Became a Widow, a Single Mom, and a Solo Business Owner Overnight.
No warning. No diagnosis. No time to prepare. Just a pool in Palm Springs, two kids under three, and a suitcase she didn't unpack for two years.

She built a company anyway. Raised her boys. Wrote a book. And made me laugh harder than I expected to in a conversation about grief.

Her book is called You're So Strong. It's not a compliment. It's the thing everybody said when they didn't know what else to say. And Leslie spent years trying to live up to it before she figured out that was never the assignment.

This episode is about grief. It's about creative work. It's about what it actually looks like to build something when the person you built it with is gone. And yes, there's a tampon story. It's important.

Get the book. Get the audiobook. Get both and read along at. Trust me on that one. 😉

You're So Strong is available now. https://a.co/d/05m2IrWO

A new playbook for getting clarity around money, meaning and momentum.

In this powerful conversation, entrepreneur Eric Knopf shares the mindset, faith, and strategy behind building a company valued in the nine figures. From growing up with parents who never crushed his dreams, to surviving COVID wiping out revenue overnight, Eric unpacks what it truly takes to build something lasting. He challenges the idea of waiting for open doors, arguing instead that every breakthrough in his life came from pounding on closed ones. Eric dives into the relationship between faith and entrepreneurship, why peace should be the reward of bold action rather than the prerequisite, and how separating identity from outcomes unlocks the freedom to take real risks. He also shares how Web Connects turned a crisis into record-breaking growth by finding an untapped market no one else saw. Whether you are just starting out or scaling a team, this conversation is packed with honest insight on fear, culture, calling, and what it means to build a business that genuinely transforms people's lives. #Talents

A new playbook for getting clarity around money, meaning and momentum.

What happens when a worship leader sells his entire song catalog and a cleaning business owner turns a viral Facebook post into a nonprofit movement? You get Chris and Jasmine McClarney and one of the most honest conversations about faith, risk, money and marriage we've ever had.

In this episode Chris opens up about selling his catalog to Capitol, buying a studio in Franklin, and building Real Fun Records — a label designed to actually pay artists fairly. Jasmine shares how one house clean turned into a multi business operation, a mobile laundry nonprofit for the homeless, and a decade of leading with her heart over her bottom line.

This is not a highlight reel. This is the real cost of saying yes to something bigger than yourself.

Topics covered:
How Jasmine built 3 businesses from one Facebook post
Why Chris sold his catalog for $1M and what he did next
The broken music industry model and how Real Fun Records is changing it
Running a nonprofit alongside a growing business
Faith, marriage and money under pressure
Why waiting on God might just be fear in disguise

Joshua Silverberg has written songs for Spider-Man, Ocean's Eight, and the Emoji Movie. Grammy and Emmy nominations. Billboard charts. Platinum status. By every measure, he had made it. Then COVID nearly killed him.
What he brought back from that experience rewrote everything! How he sees his gifts, his time, his family, and what it actually means to steward what God gave you. #Talents

A new playbook for getting clarity around money, meaning and momentum.

Cody shares the personal story behind TALEN†S from early life experiences, to working out of necessity, to realizing that success on paper still didn’t bring fulfillment.

This is a conversation about the disconnect so many people feel between their work, their money, and their purpose.

Why do some people make money and still feel lost?
Why does success sometimes feel hollow?
Why do so many people feel disconnected from their gifts, calling, and clarity?

This episode explores the deeper reason TALEN†S started: to bring clarity to money, work, purpose, and stewardship for this generation.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, unfulfilled, confused about money, or unsure how your gifts connect to your future, this episode is for you. #Talents

A new playbook for getting clarity around money, meaning and momentum.

The Parable of the Talents is one of the most famous stories ever told. Brandon Johnson decided to live it. He had a corporate career, a pension, and a clear path forward in a traditional 9 to 5 job, but chose a purpose-driven life instead. He walked away from all of it not because it was easy, but because staying felt like burying everything he was actually built for, choosing purpose over paycheck and a true career change.

In this episode of Talents, Brandon opens up about the real cost of leaving security behind, quitting a stable job, escaping the corporate ladder, and what nobody tells you about that transition. He shares the reality of a career pivot, the risks of leaving a secure job, and the mindset required to build a creative career and find fulfillment over money.

This one will challenge how you think about talent, risk, and what it actually means to invest in your calling, especially if you feel stuck living for the weekend, searching for your purpose, or trying to break out of the 9 to 5 and build a life aligned with your calling. #Talents
