Welcome to a listen-to-learn episode of the Share Life podcast. In this episode, I'm speaking with author — Religious Rebels: Finding Jesus in the Awkward Middle Way (affiliate link) — Christy Lynne Wood about the Poverty of a Moralistic Gospel.

Christy continues to pick apart legalism, twisted Scripture, and lies in a search for the truth. She is passionate about helping people leave behind empty religion as they seek Jesus. Christy lives in West Michigan with her wonderfully opposite husband and their two children.

Christy spent the 90s in a Christian cult, but Jesus found her anyway. She started deconstructing and reconstructing her faith long before those were buzzwords. The Jesus she’d met and the god of her cult couldn’t be the same God. ---Connect With Christy Lynne Wood

In this Inspirational People interview on the Share Life podcast, I'm speaking with comedian and writer, Andres Schabelman. Andres was a successful tech entrepreneur, having been involved in the technology industry early on, including Airbnb and Fiverr. His accolades matter less to him now than his current dream of showing the magic and power of human connection around the world. Born and raised in New Orleans to Argentine-Jewish parents, he was surrounded by a broader Colombian-Catholic community in the South. He's also the author of the book, Captains Wanted (affiliate link), about how a person can do all that is expected of them and still fail, and what it looks like to forge ahead on a new path.

Andres shares his deeply personal journey of confronting societal pressures, numbed emotions, and the pivotal moment of being robbed that forced him to re-evaluate everything. Discover how to identify and break free from living by others' values, start listening to your inner voice, and find joy in the journey rather than just the destination.

I recently met Trey at a Voices to Connect speaker showcase conference (Thank you, Jessica Lalley), and I was impressed by Trey's emceeing job at the event! Trey is a Visionary leader and coach with an intense passion for life, people, and inspiring transformational change in people to move toward what matters.

In this conversation, Trey opens up about the fear and uncertainty that accompany major life changes, how he landed on his core purpose to "inspire people to move toward what matters," and the critical importance of embracing discomfort for growth, summed up in the mantra "Grow or Die." Discover his powerful insights on the Vision-Mindset-Strategy framework, the distinct roles of coaching and mentoring, overcoming insecurity with inspiration from stories like Moses, and why systems are vital (but need regular checks to avoid becoming tyrannical). This conversation is packed with relatable struggles and actionable wisdom for anyone navigating transitions, seeking clarity on their purpose, or ready to unlock their true potential.
