In this episode, hosts Heath and Josh sit down with their longtime friend Jennifer Windland for a candid, funny, and surprisingly grounding conversation about life on both sides of the healthcare world.

Jennifer is a registered nurse with 19 years of ER experience, and she does not hold back. She shares wild, emotional, and sometimes jaw-dropping stories from the emergency room—moments that are chaotic, heartbreaking, hilarious, and deeply human. Heath and Josh react in real time, asking the questions everyone’s thinking and laughing along while also acknowledging the heavy toll that kind of work can take.

From there, the conversation shifts into Jennifer’s turning point. After nearly two decades in a high-stress ER environment, she made the bold decision to step away from nursing and pursue a path focused on healing in a different way—becoming a yoga instructor. She talks openly about burnout, the need for balance, and how yoga helped her reconnect with herself while still serving others.

Jennifer also dives into her new venture as a health coach, explaining what that role looks like day to day. She discusses how she helps clients build sustainable habits around movement, stress management, mindset, and overall wellness—using both her medical background and her holistic training to support people in a more personalized, preventative way.

The episode is equal parts ER war stories, personal transformation, and practical wellness insight, with plenty of laughs and real talk along the way. It’s a conversation about listening to your body, redefining success, and finding healthier ways to help others—without losing yourself in the process.

In this episode, hosts Heath and Josh sit down with their friend Hannah Helmke to unpack a Christmas Eve she and her family will never forget.

Late at night on Christmas Eve, lightning struck Hannah’s family home, instantly turning what should have been a peaceful holiday into a traumatic emergency. Hannah walks listeners through the terrifying moments as the strike tore through the house—describing the chaos, fear, and disbelief as her family scrambled to make sense of what had just happened while the night (and the holiday) unraveled around them.

But the disaster didn’t end once the storm passed. Much of the episode focuses on the long, exhausting aftermath: months of displacement, uncertainty, and the seemingly endless battle with insurance companies. Hannah candidly shares the “second nightmare” of the experience—navigating claims, delays, confusing paperwork, and constant setbacks while trying to get her family’s home repaired and livable again.

Heath and Josh balance the heavy subject matter with empathy, humor, and moments of reflection, while also asking the questions listeners are thinking.

The episode is a powerful reminder that surviving the disaster is sometimes only the beginning, and that the road back to “normal” can be far more difficult than anyone expects.

In this episode, hosts Heath and Josh sit down with music artist Jen Korte, better known as Lady Gang, for an honest and inspiring conversation about choosing an unconventional life driven by creativity, nature, and self-truth.

Jen opens up about her personal journey through music and why the traditional workforce never felt aligned with who she is. Rather than following a prescribed path, she shares how being immersed in nature is essential to her well-being and creative process—writing and making music not for trends or approval, but as a way to feel grounded, alive, and whole.

The conversation flows from her soulful life in St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands, where ocean energy fuels her spirit, to the stark beauty of the New Mexico desert, a place she returns to for solitude, reflection, and deep musical inspiration.

Heath and Josh also dive into why Lady Gang’s music defies categorization. Too raw and real for mainstream labels, her sound exists outside traditional genres—authentic, emotionally rich, and unmistakably her own.
