Fearless Shepherds

Another conversation with an OG Fearless Shepherd, John Heckler. It has been almost two months since our last conversation, at least live on the pod, as we check in pretty often. It is amazing to have a friend who looks after you, checks in with you, and holds you accountable to your mission, and John is one of those friends. A man of Faith, we discuss many a topics regarding Faith, events being held in LA with my community, goals long term for the FS movement, and much more! Tune in and may God bless your mind, body, and soul! *If you feel called to getting baptized, reach out for more info (Aug. 21st at Vintage church in LA).

In this episode we get to know the soul warrior Avi Nimmer! Avi runs events and coaches throughout LA, I have had the pleasure of attending his liber8Xperience multiple times, and he leads from such a place of genuine love and playfulness. We dive into what it means to be a spiritual man in the 21st century, in America! We open up on spirit, what it means to love unconditionally (others & self), and much, much more. A lovely conversation, hopefully inspiring you to plug into the community and give thanks, wherever you are!

In this episode we get to know the "party coach", Evan Cudworth! Evan takes pride in teaching people the importance of confidence and playfulness, no matter the environment. He shows people that you can be the "life" of the party sober, and how beating yourself up over the occasional drink or smoke is not the right mindset if you are thinking about quitting. We talk about his journey with Faith, as a man who felt judged by the church for liking the same sex. We discuss health & wellness, what its like being a coach, living in LA, and much more! Enjoy the conversation, and God bless.

We discuss school, childhood trauma and how to grow, modern day man, importance of Faith & perspective, and much more. God bless you all!

In this episode we get to know Chaz aka "Chucky" Byrd, and the amazing journey of his life! He has been a big inspiration to me, taking some of these strides toward the path I am currently on. He is an Army veteran, Father, student, and has the courage to discuss Faith and friendship with nothing held back. He is a strong and silly man, & I am so grateful to know him as a friend. Chaz is getting ready to graduate from the LA film school, and has such great perspective on some amazing topics that we discuss in depth in this episode.

In this episode, we get to know my friend and business partner Michael Laing! He is quite the scholar, and founder of Terra Health Coaching, a preventative health care & coaching app that sets you up with a physician/coach, to get you on a fast track toward better health and well-being. He talks about the six pillars of health, and we dive deeper into the Fearless Health Summer series (1st is upcoming June 25th)! He opens up on his experience at the FS bible studies, and how he has deepened his Spiritual relationship with God. This is a great conversation full of wonderful information to take with you, listen in, and I hope to see you at our first of many Fearless Health events June 25th at the beach, reach out for more information!

Having lived in LA her entire life, she shares the importance of healthy relationships with self, in order to have the right discernment towards who she lets into her life. She goes deeper into her family dynamic, school, work, the power of prayer, and much more! Tune in and see how great God is to send me a woman like her :) Do the work on yourself 1st, pray for what you desire, then let God do the rest!
