In this inspiring conversation, I sit down with Leslee Holliday—wife to former MLB star Matt Holliday, and mom to four incredibly talented children, including pro baseball player Jackson Holliday.

Leslee is unwavering in her love for Jesus, and she shares how faith, family, and health are deeply intertwined in her life. We talk about raising kids in their God-given gifts, the power of living a Christ-centered life, and why spiritual, mental, and physical well-being are all essential to making a lasting impact.

Her non-negotiable questions in patterning a life after Christ: How Can I See people clearly? How Can I Know people deeply? How Can I Love people well?

This episode is full of wisdom, grace, and reminders of what really matters.

Kim Roxie, Founder of Lamik Beauty, knows what it means to step out in faith and walk boldly in her calling. A trailblazer in the clean beauty industry, Kim shares how a chance encounter with a retired chemist gave her the knowledge, guidance, and connections to launch a paraben- and talc-free beauty brand for every type of woman. In this episode, she opens up about growing up as a preacher’s kid, being labeled “at-risk,” and how she turned that label into fuel—knocking the chip off her shoulder, excelling in college, and ultimately building a brand rooted in empowerment, inclusion, and authenticity. Tune in to hear more about how her Mom’s illness fueled her passion for creating clean beauty products and what her story can teach us about purpose, beauty, and believing in yourself.

This is the second part of the two part episode about Dana Day, Owner of Dana Build and Design. In the first episode, Dana shared about her passion for working as a builder, what she enjoys, how it’s challenging and explains the series she was selected to appear in for HGTV.

This episode moves on to her purpose about destigmatizing talk about suicide. Dana lost her younger sister, Leslie, to suicide and it shook Dana to her core. During this conversation, she shares more about the feelings she dealt with, how she processed those and how posting on social media ended up saving three people from taking their own lives.

This is just the beginning for Dana as she is looking to fight the silence of those struggling with suicidal thoughts and let them know there is hope. She is looking to use this unimaginable tragedy for good. 

If you or someone you know is struggling with suicide, help is available. Call or text the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline at 988, or online 988lifeline.org. It is available 24 hours a day 7 days a week. This resource is also available for those who are trying to support them. The website is an excellent resource that shares warning signs, ways to help, do’s and don’ts and more.

Dana Day is the Owner of Dana Build and Design in Tulsa. She’s an incredible person who is very passionate about what she does and that is evidenced throughout her 20 plus year career including being selected to appear in a series on HGTV, winning numerous accolades and more. I want to preface this episode by letting you know that this will be a two-part episode. During this visit, she’ll share insight into what led up to her changing careers and jumping into this industry; what she enjoys about it (hint: it has to do with the challenges), and the stigma of being a female in a male dominated business. However, she has also a purpose that is also very important to her and is looking to share it with others. It involves her sister, Leslie, committing suicide. She will share a little about this at the end of the podcast and then will go into more depth in part two of this interview. Stick around to get to know Dana, her talent for working with clients to create custom projects that are on budget and on time. And then learn more of the back story about her sister and the event that shook Dana to her core. I was so honored that she shared this as I know it’s going to be helpful for others to hear her words.
