In this episode of Human Enough, I sit down with researcher, neurophilosopher, and author Alan Bodnar to explore one of the most important questions we can ask ourselves:

Who is actually driving our lives?

Drawing from over a decade of studying neuroscience, behavior, mindfulness, artificial intelligence, and human potential, Alan developed The Self-Driving You—a framework that compares the human mind to a self-driving vehicle.

Together, we explore why so much of our behavior happens automatically, why change feels so difficult, what consciousness actually is, and how deliberate attention can help us reclaim control of our lives.

This is a conversation about awareness, identity, human potential, and learning how to become an active participant in your own evolution.

In this episode of Human Enough, I sit down with Catherine Crestani, author of My Virtual Obsession, to explore how modern connection is reshaping the way we love, attach, and relate to one another.

We dive into the psychology of emotional attachment in a digital world, why people are forming bonds faster than ever, and how loneliness can blur the line between real intimacy and emotional illusion.

This conversation explores the tension between what feels like connection and what actually is connection—and what it takes to return to something more grounded, honest, and human in our relationships.

In this episode of Human Enough, I sit down with executive coach and author Mette Reebirk to explore a powerful idea: that much of our suffering is not caused by life itself, but by the stories we build around it.

Mette shares insights from her book The Tipping Point: Life Force Comes From Questioning Your Thoughts, inviting us to look beyond identity, anxiety, and self-narratives into a deeper space of awareness and inner stillness.

Together, we explore how stories shape who we believe we are, how they quietly limit our sense of possibility, and what becomes available when we begin to question them. This conversation is about moving beyond mental confinement and reconnecting with a quieter, more stable sense of self that is not dependent on thought.

In this episode of Human Enough, I sit down with licensed minister and host of At the Counter with the Baking Pastor, Laura Sharp-Waites, to explore what it means to keep going in seasons of burnout, grief, and quiet exhaustion.

This conversation is not about quick fixes or spiritual performance—it’s about presence. We talk about what it feels like to wake up already tired, how to navigate seasons where life doesn’t look the way you expected, and how faith can become something gentle, grounding, and deeply human in the middle of everyday life.

Together, we explore how God is often found not in dramatic breakthroughs, but in the ordinary rhythms we usually overlook.

In this episode of Human Enough, I sit down with award-winning author and mindfulness coach Nita Sweeney to explore her deeply personal memoir Memorial: The Year My Dad and I Stopped Keeping Score.

This is a conversation about fathers and daughters, memory and meaning, and what happens when we stop trying to win emotional battles we’ve been carrying for years. We talk about family, forgiveness, grief, and the quiet emotional work of letting go of old scorecards we didn’t even realize we were keeping.

Alongside this, we also touch on her journey through depression, running, meditation, and writing as practices of survival and healing—but at the heart of this episode is a deeply human question: what does it mean to finally make peace with the past?

In this episode of Human Enough, I sit down with author T.A. Thompson to discuss his debut dystopian thriller, The Mark, his journey as a writer, and the creative process behind building compelling stories. We explore worldbuilding, character development, the challenges of publishing, and the deeper purpose fiction serves in helping us understand ourselves and the world around us.

Whether you're a reader, aspiring writer, or someone fascinated by storytelling, this conversation offers an honest look at what it takes to bring an idea from imagination to the page.

In this episode of Human Enough, I sit down with Chris Woods, executive coach, former Google sales leader, and author of Balls & Brains. Chris shares his journey from a tough upbringing in Boston to the heights of corporate success, and the life-changing moment when he flatlined in a hospital bed at age 40.

We explore the hidden fears that quietly shape our lives, why so many successful people still feel stuck, and how to stop defining yourself by achievement alone. Chris shares practical wisdom on overcoming fear, maximizing your strengths, and building a life that feels as good on the inside as it looks on the outside.

In this episode of Human Enough, I sit down with Steve Barton, executive coach, author, and creator of The Game of Ten®, to explore why so many high achievers continue to struggle with fear, self-doubt, guilt, and shame despite outward success.

Drawing from nearly five decades of business and leadership experience, Steve shares how awareness, emotional intelligence, and the belief that “I am enough” can transform the way we lead, make decisions, build relationships, and navigate life’s challenges. This conversation is about moving beyond performance and achievement to discover a deeper sense of clarity, confidence, and fulfillment.

In this episode of Human Enough, I sit down with Reuben Butterfield, founder of Round 3 Agency, father of teens, and a man navigating one of the most difficult seasons of his life. After losing both the mother of his children and his own mother within a short period of time, Reuben has been forced to confront grief, responsibility, love, regret, and the challenge of continuing to show up when life feels overwhelming.

Together, we explore modern masculinity, fatherhood, emotional honesty, personal growth, and what it means to build a meaningful life while carrying loss. This is a conversation about resilience, presence, and the quiet courage of showing up.

In this episode of Human Enough, I sit down with Arky Jones, creator of PersonalityPeek, to explore why we think, react, and live so differently from one another. We discuss personality, self-awareness, Stoicism, emotional intelligence, and the patterns that shape our lives. Arky shares practical insights on understanding yourself more deeply, breaking unhelpful cycles, and becoming more intentional about who you’re becoming.
