We live in a world starving for attention—but what we're really craving is connection.

In this powerful and deeply human conversation, Stephen sits down with Adam Christing to explore how humor, vulnerability, and presence shape the way we lead, relate, and live. This episode moves far beyond "being funny" and into something far more meaningful: how laughter becomes a bridge to trust, healing, and authenticity.

From leadership and personal growth to faith, neuroscience, and lived experience, this conversation reveals why humor isn't a distraction, it's a discipline, a tool, and a language of connection.

What did they talk about?

• We feel before we think - connection is transferred, not explained

• Leaders must give themselves the same grace they give others

• Authentic presence matters more than polished performance

• Humor builds trust faster than perfection ever could

This episode isn't just for you.

Think about the people in your life, your team, your family, your friends,who could benefit from this conversation. Chances are, three people came to mind immediately.
