In this episode of the Don't Do Nothing Podcast, Andy Holmes shares what it's really like to spend 20 years working inside the Church of Scientology and why he's still fully committed today.
Andy didn't grow up in Scientology. As a teenager, he struggled in school, nearly fell behind due to literacy challenges, and later found himself caught in a destructive cycle of drug use while in college. After a turning point that left him physically and mentally drained, he was introduced to Scientology through his father, and what followed completely changed the direction of his life.
He talks about how the Purification Rundown helped him recover, why he decided to dedicate his life to the Church at just 19 years old, and how his motivation has evolved over two decades from simply staying away from drugs to a deeper mission of helping others and contributing to a better future for his children.
Andy also breaks down common misconceptions about Scientology, explains why he believes religion is making a comeback, and shares his perspective on spirituality as a solution to some of the biggest issues in society, including crime, addiction, and lack of purpose.
On top of that, he opens up about building a massive social media presence for the Church of Scientology in San Francisco, reaching millions of people, and answering some of the most asked questions about the religion online.
Whether you're curious about Scientology, interested in personal transformation, or want to understand what drives someone to commit 20 years of their life to a mission like this, this episode gives you a raw, first hand perspective.

In this episode of the Don't Do Nothing Podcast, Mariah Nagengast shares how she is raising 3 energetic kids, including twins, without turning to medication, and why she believes strong, confident children come from understanding them, not suppressing them.
Mariah is a mother of 3, a wife, a business owner, and a third-generation Scientologist who, alongside her husband, helped grow a small paintball field into a major entertainment company behind attractions like Scream-A-Geddon, TreeHoppers, and Snowcat Ridge.

Mariah also shares powerful personal stories, including how Dianetics helped her through a dark period in her own life, how Scientology counseling helped her recover after childbirth, and how these same principles now help her raise dynamic children with confidence.

In this episode of the Don't Do Nothing Podcast, Aaron's wife Whitney Cordovez shares how having children became the turning point in building their business and life. When Whitney and Aaron first started out, they had almost nothing. One income, credit card debt, uncertainty, and a lot of ambition. Aaron was trying different ventures without real traction. Everything changed when Whitney became pregnant. Responsibility became real. The pressure increased. The drive to produce intensified.
Whitney explains how each child raised their standard. More responsibility meant more focus. More urgency meant smarter decisions. Aaron went through an intense programming bootcamp while she was pregnant. They risked money they didn't have. Then when launching an Amazon Business they tested products from home with babies in the background. At one point, they were barely profitable and had to completely change how they were operating.
They talk openly about roles inside the marriage, decision-making, handling disagreement, and how long-term thinking shaped everything from family planning to business growth. Whitney shares why she believes in supporting your spouse's vision without projecting doubt, and how strong partnership creates stability both at home and in business.
This episode is about responsibility, alignment, and turning pressure into production.

If you're a parent questioning the public education system and looking for real-world insight from someone who's been inside it, this conversation will challenge assumptions and empower you to think differently about your child's future
