Don't know Cole Risner? Well...hang on! After years of hard work, this amazing singer/songwriter is starting to take off. I got a chance to sit down with him backstage at Larry Joe Taylor's Texas Music Festival. We also shared three BIG announcements about the Defining Audacity Radio Show. #liveonpurpose

Jack Barksdale might be the coolest kid I've EVER met! I enjoyed visiting with him and his mom, Clara, in studio about music and their goals, dreams and aspirations. Nine-year-old Jack is definitely living on purpose and attacking life with reckless abandon. He has several wonderfully great life lists that he talks about during our interview. #liveonpurpose

Special Edition of the Defining Audacity Radio Show: We got the chance to visit with an inspirational Gold Star Mom, Phyllis Galvan McGeath. After losing her son – Marine Corporal Philip McGeath – in combat in 2012, she decided to honor her son in an amazing way. (Plus we also visited with singer/songwriter Jon Young about his new album, Relic.) #liveonpurpose

Is Deryl Dodd the coolest guy in country music? After sitting down with him backstage at the Larry Joe Taylor Country Music Festival, my vote is YES! We had a fun and perspective-filled conversation about life, goals and his brand new album, "Long Hard Ride." (All in the comfy confines of a random Airstream.) #liveonpurpose

We bring my chiropractor, Dr. Jennifer Cullen, in studio from time to time to discuss living on purpose. This was a fun in-studio conversation, because I'm about to help Dr. Cullen mark something off her life list, attend the Larry Joe Taylor Music Festival. My tip: Wear rubber boots for the "festival stew." #liveonpurpose

A common adjective to describe Courtney Patton is "different." After spending time in-studio with this amazing singer/songwriter...I agree. She is "different" in the most wonderfully great way possible. Not only is she taking the Texas music scene by storm, she's holding things down on the home front as a mom and ready to start giving back to her community again. #liveonpurpose

Angela Stanley was struggling with the thought of turning 40 years old. So, this inspiring woman from North Carolina decided to step out of the spotlight and be intentional about showing kindness for 40 straight days. It changed her life in a wonderfully great way. #liveonpurpose

Rance Norton has a pure country sound, but it's his story that steals the spotlight on this episode of the Defining Audacity Radio Show. After weighing almost 400 pounds, Rance took control of his life. Now, his music has an inspiring story fueling it. #liveonpurpose

Two inspiring interviews on this episode of the Defining Audacity Radio Show. Our featured artist is Rance Norton, who took control of his after weighing almost 400 pounds. We also talk to the creator of the "Fab Forty Kindness Challenge," Ms. Angela Stanley. Show sponsor: Purpose Coffee. #liveonpurpose

Chad Prather has been called many things - I branded him a "bad ass with a million-dollar smile." This guy has blown up the internet by simply being true to himself. This in-studio conversation is fun, engaging and packed full of perspective. Chad Prather definitely lives on purpose.
