  • What Binge-Watching Charlie Kirk Taught Me About Lies, Truth, and Violent Communication
    Sep 15 2025
    After the news of Charlie Kirk’s murder, I spiraled into a 12-hour binge of his debates. Not because I agreed with him, but because I was escaping my own fears. In this episode, I share how that binge taught me about the lies we tell ourselves, the radical truths that set us free, and how violence shows up not just in actions, but in the way we communicate.

  • Unmasking the Armour: Why Men Struggle with Vulnerability and How to Heal
    Sep 10 2025
    Today on the podcast, I’m joined by entrepreneur and author Christopher Tricola. Chris’s journey is one of resilience, from surviving cancer to rebuilding after financial devastation. What makes his story powerful isn’t just the success he’s built, but how he’s learned to drop the armour, embrace vulnerability, and redefine what true strength really means. That shift has paid off—with a thriving business and a healthy marriage. In this episode, he shares the secrets behind both. I'm opening 3 spots for men to join my single BEAM group community with both single men and women to unmask the armour.
