In this episode of Joy Hour, Tom sits down with Micah May, a national award-winning speaker and clarity strategist who helps leaders anchor their message in identity so their words and results finally match. They talk in real time about what happens when God starts refining not just what you do, but who you are, and how that shift forces your message to get clearer, sharper, and more honest.

Tom opens up about the identity shift from a 30-year construction career into a calling, and why “success” can still feel empty when it is built on ego, comfort, or someone else’s definition. Micah breaks down why clarity is not found in more ideas, better marketing, or louder branding, but in alignment: identity first, then strategy. Together they explore how coaching, accountability, and the courage to face blind spots can move a man from surviving to thriving, especially in recovery and leadership.

If you were forced to define success today, what would it look like in your faith, your home, and your daily choices?
