He got the followers, the money, the dream year. It was also the most anxious he'd ever been. Here's what actually changed it.Shayne Boyle built a career doing something most people would call ridiculous: catching marshmallows, trick shots, sports entertainment content that reaches millions and put him on the road with the Dude Perfect Tour. On paper, last year was the best of his life. A thriving business, a new fiancée, recognition, the whole thing. It was also the year anxiety and OCD hit the hardest.In this conversation he gets honest about the gap between outward success and inner peace: why validation in the comments never fills you, why the comparison game never ends no matter how big you get, and how he stopped tying his identity to his numbers. We talk about the wake-up call that made him rethink the content he was making, why the world doesn't need everyone to be a pastor, and the simple truth he keeps coming back to: you can't be grateful and anxious at the same time.This one's for anyone who finally got what they wanted and felt emptier than before. Shayne shares how his faith, real community, and God's word became the ground he actually stands on. We close by opening the door for you to start that same relationship with Jesus.

Hailey Julia grew up in a Christian home, said all the right things, and still found herself fully split, faith in one hand, the world in the other. In this conversation, she talks honestly about what it looks like to know something is true and still not live like it. She peaks on the loneliness that builds when you isolate yourself and wait for community to find you instead of going after it and the night at Pepperdine when she sat on a dorm room floor, said it out loud, and went all in.Since then, God has taken her from timid to bold in ways she can't explain. She hosted a group of women she barely knew on a faith-rooted trip to Bali. She walked onto a stage at a revival in Texas with no notes and felt the Holy Spirit carry every word. She built Bible Buddies, a kids' plush toy business born from a midnight vision, grounded in Hebrews 4:12.This episode is for anyone who knows the pull. Who's been running at half strength and wondering why nothing feels settled.Hailey Julia is a Christian content creator, entrepreneur, speaker, and world traveler based in New York City. She leads faith-rooted group travel experiences and creates content that mixes conviction with comedy.

Knowing the rules doesn't mean you know God. Alex Quist spent years doing everything right but missing God.Most people who grew up in church know how to perform faith. They know the prayers, what to avoid, how to look like a believer around believers. What they often don't know is what it feels like when faith stops being performance and becomes real.Alex Quist lived both sides. This episode is about what flipped it: a junior year of college, a community whose joy didn't add up, and a slow realization that knowing about God and knowing God are not the same thing.Recorded live in Jerusalem during a week-long trip through Israel's holy sites, Alex and Doug also discuss marriage, fatherhood, what a toddler charging at an electrical outlet has to do with trusting God, standing at the Mount of Beatitudes, Bible open, tracing three chapters of Scripture across the actual landscape where they happened, Alex says, “these aren't Bible stories, they're Bible events. The evidence is everywhere.”This conversation is grounded in the conviction that Jesus is real, community is essential, and the gospel is genuinely good news.
