  • You Feel Stuck Because You're Chasing The Wrong Thing | Randall Thames
    May 26 2026

    What happens when you're successful, busy, and moving forward, but still feel like something is missing?

    In this episode of What Changed?, I sit down with Randall Thames, author, speaker, coach, pastor, and founder of InSpirit Institute, to explore why purpose is often less about what we do and more about who we are becoming.

    Randall shares his perspective on activity vs. identity, finding your personal "superpower," and why ordinary moments, habits, and self-awareness can help us build a more aligned life.

    We get into:

    • Finding purpose when life feels unclear
    • The difference between being active and being aligned
    • Why achievement does not always equal fulfilment
    • Discovering what people naturally come to you for
    • Building discipline through simple daily habits
    • Redefining ordinary as a starting point, not a limitation
    • Creating a life that feels connected to who you really are

    This episode is for anyone searching for purpose, trying to redefine success, or wondering how to build a life that feels more connected to who they really are.

  • Delegation Expert: If You're Overwhelmed, The Problem Isn't Time. It's What You Won't Let Go Of | Rachael Davila
    May 19 2026

    What if you're not overwhelmed because you have too much to do, but because you're still carrying things that no longer need to be yours?

    In this conversation, Dwayne sits down with Rachael Davila, delegation and implementation strategist, mentor, author, speaker, and founder of Extra Hands! Virtual Assistance, to talk about why delegation is so difficult for capable people.

    This goes beyond productivity and time management. Rachael shares how reaching a long-time business goal pushed her into burnout and forced her to confront the identity she had built around doing everything herself.

    Together, Dwayne and Rachael explore control, trust, leadership, asking for help, hiring support, and the uncomfortable truth behind the phrase, "It's just easier if I do it myself."

    This episode is for business owners, solopreneurs, leaders, and anyone who knows they need support but feels afraid to let go.

    Because sometimes self-leadership is not about carrying more.
    It's realizing what was never yours to carry alone.

  • The Hidden Cost of Building the Wrong Life | David Schnurman
    May 12 2026

    A lot of people build a life that looks successful on paper, then quietly start wondering why it no longer feels right.

    In this conversation, I'm joined by David Schnurman, entrepreneur, CEO of Lawline, and author, to talk about what changes when you stop waiting for more certainty and start getting honest about the life you actually want.

    We talk about fear, control, response, resilience, consistency, family vision, and the tension between building a successful life and fully living one. David also opens up about the late ADHD diagnosis that helped him make sense of parts of himself he used to judge.

    This episode is really about the inner moment a lot of people know but do not always say out loud: when your life is moving, but something in you feels left behind.

    If you have ever felt high-functioning but disconnected, driven but unsure, or successful but still unsettled, this one will likely feel familiar.
