  • Shay Martin: Resilience of the Human Heart

    Grief is something every one of us will face in this life… but very few people talk about it honestly.

     

    On this episode of the Beliefcast, I sit down with Shay Martin, a licensed therapist, grief advocate, and powerful voice for those navigating love, loss, and healing.

     

    After walking beside her husband Tanner through a five-year battle with stage IV colon cancer, Shay found herself facing one of the most difficult realities imaginable—becoming a young widow and solo mom.

    Instead of hiding from the pain, she chose to share her story.

     

    Today, Shay helps people all over the world understand that grief is not something to fix or rush through. It’s something we learn to carry… and through it, we discover the depth of love that still remains.

     

    This conversation is honest, raw, and incredibly powerful.

     

    If you or someone you love has experienced loss, this episode will touch your heart.

  • Dee Noyes: Lost Everything. Rebuilt Everything

    Dee Noyes’ story is one of collapse and courageous rebuilding.

     

    After losing her family, facing prison, addiction, and deep self-hatred, Dee entered treatment at Wasatch Recovery. What she found there wasn’t just sobriety.

     

    She found time.

     

    Time to understand the trauma.

    Time to break the people-pleasing patterns.
    Time to discover who she truly was beneath the pain.

     

    Today she is over two years clean and sober, living a life she once believed was impossible.

    This episode is a powerful reminder that identity drives behavior — and when we heal the root, transformation becomes possible.

  • Band of Brothers: We struggled and We didn’t Quit

    There’s something powerful about men who choose to stay connected… no matter what life throws at them.  This episode hit different.

     

    I sat down with some of my closest lifelong friends:  Drew Tovey, Dean Thompson, Scott Forbes, and Sean “Mike” Pratt. We didn’t hold back.

     

    We talked about the struggles, the mistakes, the pain… and the growth that came because of it.

    There were moments we laughed hard… and moments that brought us to tears.

     

    This is what real brotherhood looks like.

     

    If you’re in a battle right now, I hope this reminds you, you’re not alone.

    Kadie Perez’s story is one of courage, redemption, and unshakable hope.

     

    After surviving severe domestic violence, including physical and emotional abuse, Kadie found herself at the lowest point of her life. What the enemy meant for destruction, God used for restoration.

     

    Through Jesus Christ, Kadie discovered her true worth, reclaimed her identity, and stepped into freedom.

     

    Today, she bravely shares her testimony so others trapped in fear or pain can know this truth: no matter how broken you feel, God can rebuild your life and give you a future.

  • Amber Washington: Whole, Not Broken

    Some stories don’t just inspire you…They invite you to heal.

     

    Amber Washington’s journey from childhood trauma to leadership is one of the most honest conversations we’ve had on the Beliefcast. 

     

    In her powerful memoir, (W)hole: My Journey to W, Amber shares her lived experience with childhood sexual abuse and the long, courageous road toward healing, voice, and leadership.

     

    She reminds us that healing isn’t about pretending it didn’t happen.  It’s about becoming whole because it happened.

     

    Her work through Whole Heals is transforming how leaders think about trauma, neurodivergence, and what it truly means to create safe spaces, at home and at work.

     

    This conversation will make you reflect.  It will challenge you and it will remind you that you are not broken.

  • Pamela Love: Happy Without Doing More

    Pamela Love is for the people who look like they’re holding it all together…

    but inside feel exhausted, overwhelmed, and emotionally spent.

     

    Pamela pushed herself into a level of burnout she didn’t even know was possible — the kind where your brain and body just… stop.

     

    And what healed her wasn’t hustling harder.

    It wasn’t “figuring it out.”
    It was slowing down and rebuilding from the inside out — through small intentional moments.

     

    If you’ve been feeling like you’re stuck in survival mode… this episode might be the permission slip your soul has been waiting for.

  • Talmage Bratt: Empathy into Action

    Some people talk about making a difference “one day.”

     

    Talmage Bratt is doing it NOW.

     

    Talmage is the founder of Philanthropic Studios, a platform built to create empathy through media and turn that empathy into action toward ending poverty. What moved me most is his belief that younger generations shouldn’t wait decades to give back—we’re called to build impact while we’re young, driven, and alive.

     

    This episode will inspire you to rethink what philanthropy can look like, and remind you that doing good doesn’t have to be complicated… it can be immediate, human, and powerful.

  • Becky Kemp: Your Words Create Your Life

    We speak thousands of words to ourselves every single day… but what if those words are quietly shaping the life we experience?

     

    In this week’s Beliefcast, I sit down with Becky Kemp — motivational speaker, mindset coach, and author of The Word Effect — to talk about the life-changing power of intentional language.

     

    Becky shares how the stories we tell ourselves can either keep us stuck in limitation or move us toward confidence, healing, and purpose. We dive into how small shifts in the words we choose can completely change our mindset, our leadership, our relationships, and the direction of our lives.

     

    This conversation is uplifting, practical, and full of hope. If you’ve ever felt held back by your inner dialogue, this episode will give you tools to start rewriting your story today.
