  • 64. Repercussions of Long-Term Violence in the Home with Ivory Smith

    We're taking a very brief intermission (consider it a drumroll before the final step!) from our Create your Reality series for this conversation with Ben and his little sister, Ivory. In this episode, the two share some insights into their home lives, how it shaped them, what they've learned and so much more. After a storied history of violence in the home, emotional and physical, how does one find themselves again? Is there light on the other side? The answer, of course, is yes; there is always light.

    If you like what we do and want to support our programs, consider sponsoring a champ at thegoliathfoundation.com. Your contribution can help a man in need get the support he's seeking from a guy who's been through it all and came out the other side to lead a happier life.

  • 60. Creating the Life You Want: Part 3

    We're on to part three of the series about creating the life you want, and we're getting into some meat now. Not that it hasn't all been juicy, of course.


    In this week's episode, we're talking about joy. But, more to the point, what brings you joy? How important is it to follow your joy? In our opinion, nothing that brings you joy is a waste of time; taking time to do the things you like is imperative to a happy life.

    Here are two journaling prompts to get you started today:

    - What are several things that you personally find important, regardless of what you might feel you SHOULD find important?

  • 58. Creating the Life you Want: Part 1

    For the first episode back in 2022, we're focusing for the next few weeks on creating the life you want. We could talk about resolutions, we could talk about losing weight or attracting money but the fact is, all of that falls under the umbrella of creating the life you want. Over the next few weeks we'll be chatting about how you truly can create the life you want and how to do it - no airy mumbo jumbo, no messing around, just cold hard facts. At least, as cold hard fact-ish as we get here.
