  • God Already Knew Your Limitations
    May 16 2026
    In today’s episode, I sit down with acclaimed speaker, writer, and life coach Tim Storey for a conversation about faith, wisdom, purpose, and the mindset required to overcome limitations. We talk about the difference between knowledge and wisdom, why preparation creates conviction, and how fear, worry, and comparison interfere with growth. Tim shares his perspective on finding your unique assignment instead of chasing somebody else’s success, while I reflect on forgiveness, service, and the importance of protecting your mindset through your “eye gate” and “ear gate.” We also discuss recovery, leadership, and why the right preparation allows people to perform under pressure.

  • Stop Giving Away Your Best Hours
    May 15 2026
    In today’s episode, I share why coaches, mentors, and teachers can speed up your journey, but they can’t do the inner work for you. I talk about getting from A to B, finding people who already sit where you want to be, and using their guidance to avoid unnecessary pain, wasted time, and expensive lessons. I also break down the difference between scheduled time and non-time, why giving away your best hours can cost you, and how small daily commitments create lasting success. True growth starts within, but the right people and systems make the path easier.

Frank shares how profit sharing transformed his business, why treating employees like partners created explosive growth, and how his experiences with poverty, war, communism, and capitalism shaped his worldview. We also talk about economic freedom, the future of entrepreneurship, the importance of purpose later in life, and why he believes stronger middle classes and fair enterprise systems are essential to creating a more civilized society.
