Today we got to interview someone we’ve been hoping to meet for a long time and that’s a personal favorite author, counselor and teacher, John Eldredge! You may know John from his most popular book, Wild at Heart, a book Andrew recommends to everyone. “Wild at Heart” has  inspired a ministry that currently includes events, retreats , a podcast and several additional books published by John. As parents of two boys, it was really impactful to talk to John about how to best support, encourage and raise confident young men in today’s world. We hope you learn as much from this conversation as we did :)

Love you guys!

Today is a big day for us because we got to interview the legend known as “The Pommel Horse Guy” and that’s 2-time Olympic medalist, Stephen Nedoroscik! We’ve been dying to interview Stephen from the moment we saw him compete at the 2024 Paris Olympics. He stole the crowd with his contagious smile and lovable energy and he has continued his incredible journey on Dancing With the Stars, where he’s been absolutely crushing it! We left this interview loving Stephen even more than we did before meeting him and we hope you feel the same way :)

Love you guys!

Today we sat down with some of our besties, Mallory Ervin and Kyle DiMeola! We absolutely love this couple and wanted to have them on the show to dive a bit deeper into their stories.Mallory and Kyle are some of the strongest and most loving people we know, but they’ve walked through some really hard seasons that have shaped who they are today. We also talked about their newly-announced pregnancy with their fourth child, a precious rainbow baby, after experiencing heartbreaking seasons of pregnancy loss. We love this couple and we know a lot of you love them too! We hope this episode finds you where you are and helps you find joy in whatever season you’re in.

Love you guys!

Today we sat down with the 2023 & 2024 Indy 500 Winner and 2x Indycar Champion, Josef Newgarden and his sweet wife and former Disney princess, Ashley! Even though this couple has seen such high success, they are so down-to-earth, easy to talk to and really inspiring! Plus, it was cool to hear Josef explain what goes into these huge races and how Ashley plays such a big role as a wife and a mom to their son. Make sure you check out their new children’s book, "Josef's BIG Dream: An INDY 500 Story"- it’s adorable! We love you guys :) 

Love,

Shawn & Andrew
