In this episode of Building A Life and Business Together, Stephanie and I go for a walk and talk through what’s been unfolding behind the scenes personally, spiritually, and creatively.

We begin by reflecting on the return of Encouraging Others Through Christ and the two episodes we recorded together this week. Stephanie shares why, even though she showed up for those powerful conversations, EOTC isn’t her regular space and never has been. Her spiritual journey is lived, not preached. And her presence, not her performance, is the transmission.

We also unpack the difference between our podcasts, why BLBT is a co-created rhythm of our daily life, while EOTC is a more personal chronicle of my spiritual expansion and the journey I’ve been walking since 2020.

From there, we take a turn into a deeper conversation about what “creative work” really means. Stephanie opens up about the energetic weight of clutter in our home, the emotional toll of trying to stay productive when her environment feels chaotic, and her desire to move into new expressions while still tied to old responsibilities.

We reframe what creativity looks like when it’s not content.

When it’s not monetized.

When it’s just… alignment.

We talk about living room redesigns, forgotten guest rooms, parenting philosophies, and the difference between being a father and being a dad. We even touch on why I turned down an invitation to be interviewed on a parenting podcast and what that says about how I want to show up in the world now.

This episode isn’t polished. It’s real.

It’s another step in our walk as whole, evolving beings. Living, loving, and aligning together in real time.

And we’re grateful to share it with you.
