On this episode of the Dudes and Dads Podcast, join Andy and Joel as they welcome back returning guests Justin and Trisha Davis, authors of the new book “One Choice Away from Change”. Justin and Trisha share the inspiration behind their latest work, which focuses on breaking the cycles that hurt relationships and hold you back.

They delve into the idea that it often takes just one choice to step onto a different path towards healing. The conversation explores the limitations of mere behavior modification and emphasizes the importance of understanding deeper heart wounds that perpetuate destructive patterns in various areas of life, including marriage, parenting, career, and friendships. Justin and Trisha openly discuss their own journey of overcoming significant challenges, including infidelity, and how those experiences have shaped their perspective on telling the truth as the crucial first step in breaking free from negative cycles.

They also share insights on parenting adult children, shifting from a coaching role to mentorship, and the long game of fostering strong relationships over simply enforcing rules. Justin recounts a personal experience of unintentionally repeating a past relational wound with one of his sons, highlighting that it’s never too late to have honest conversations and work towards healing.
