Davis Garner lost 30 years to what he calls "The Delay"—pressing pause on his life while thinking he was functional because he held down a job. But one day, he realized all he was doing was working hard to "pay the dope man's bills."
Tomorrow on Let's HEAL!, we explore:
→ Why addiction isn't just about the substance—it's about delaying your life
→ The dangerous myth of being a "functional" user
→ How cleaning up trash on South Dallas streets became the path to cleaning up the trauma in his soul
Service pulled him out of himself. Humility became his superpower.
Tomorrow's episode: How Davis went from decades of delay to becoming a pillar in his community.
We often think that to be good parents, we must shield our children from our pain. But Evelina Solis and her daughter, Hope Grace Castellon, are living proof that the secret to raising resilient leaders is teaching them how to walk through the fire with us. Evelina shares her harrowing battle with systemic lupus and a near-death experience, while Hope opens up about "secondary PTSD" and how creative expression saved her. Together, they discuss the power of faith, honest communication, and their mission to empower the next generation.

Have you ever felt trapped in a cycle of people pleasing, constantly putting out fires to keep everyone happy, only to realize you've completely lost yourself in the process? What if the way you're trying to show love is actually destroying your relationships and keeping you from experiencing God's unconditional love?
In this episode, I sit down with Katina Wilkins, author of Love is Complicated, to unpack the exhausting reality of loving difficult people without sacrificing yourself. Katina shares her rock-bottom moment of realizing she felt no love for her own family because she was trapped in performance-based love. Together, we explore the massive difference between being a "peacekeeper" (acting out of fear) and a "peacemaker" (acting from love), and how to set boundaries that honor both God and yourself.
In this episode, you'll discover:
✨ The critical difference between peacekeeping and peacemaking.
✨ Why 1 Corinthians 13 is often misinterpreted in ways that keep us small. ✨ How to identify if you're operating from performance-based love.
✨ Strategies for dealing with family members who keep a record of wrongs. ✨ My personal story of losing my identity in a 33-year marriage.
✨ How to love difficult people without sacrificing your mental health or sense of self.

Welcome to Let’s HEAL! with Beth Jones. I’m Beth, your leadership performance strategist and the HEALing Mentor. We’re still talking about healing our survival patterns, but this show is taking the…
The business world. Because we desperately need conversations about leadership performance and healing the survival patterns that keep us from achieving real success.
Our survival patterns don’t stay in our past. They follow us to work. They shape our leadership behavior and how we treat the people we are responsible for. And most of us have absolutely no idea it’s happening. It shows up as burnout despite success. As trauma responses in leadership that nobody has named yet. Decision-making under pressure that quietly erodes trust in leadership. Emptiness high achievers feel when everything looks right on the outside, but something still isn’t working inside. The higher the performance, the easier it is to look away from your wounds.
That is the conversation this show is stepping into now — and we are ready for it. The first fifty episodes of this show, raw, honest conversations with survivors, gifted healers, and people who have walked through the fire, built the foundation. Now we are taking everything we learned about healing into the room where it is needed most and asking the hard questions.
What happens when survival patterns run the show at work? How does healing our survival patterns make us more effective, more present, and more powerful as leaders? What does it look like to be forced into healing while you are still in the middle of your career? These are the conversations we’re having now. These are the conversations leaders need — and that organizations are not having.
I know one thing for sure: you, too, can heal. And when you do, you lead differently. Your team performs differently. Your decisions come from a different place. You love differently. You show up differently. This is how we build leadership effectiveness that lasts — and a life and legacy to match.
Come on, everybody. Let’s HEAL!
