Redirect Your Sexual Energy for Greater Purpose

In this episode, I'll share three shifts that made the biggest impact for me: 1. Believe that it is not necessary. 2. See sexual energy as a force for service. 3. Get curious about the deeper desire.

Own Your Identity
The Key, the Locked Door, and the True Me

For years, I’ve stood in front of the mirror, staring at my reflection. I saw my silhouette—the outline of me. But just beyond it, like a shadow I couldn’t escape, was the outline of the man I thought I had to be. Broader shoulders. Thicker chest. Sharper jawline. 

I didn’t always know where that outline came from. But one moment, one memory, gave it shape.

No Compromise: Why 100% is Easier than 99%

Do you find compromise exhausting? In this episode, we’re diving into why living aligned with your values 100% of the time is actually easier than 99%.

But when you commit fully to who you are and what you stand for, you unlock clarity, peace, and freedom. Join me as we explore the problem with 99%, the power of identity-based boundaries, and practical steps to move from compromise to alignment.

What I Wish I’d Learned Growing Up

Today, we’re going to talk about the things we didn’t learn from our dads, or our mentors, or our peers—and how that shaped us. But more importantly, we’re going to talk about how to fill that gap. Because here’s the truth: it’s not a liability. It’s an opportunity to grow, to connect, to stretch yourself, and to celebrate the journey of learning along the way.

If You Only Knew

Those five words can feel like a prison — locking us in shame, self-doubt, and fear.

But what if that phrase could be transformed from a whisper of shame to a declaration of hope?

Mastering the Moment: Mindfulness During SSA Urges

3 Guys at the Airport and the Stories I Spun

When we admire something in others, it’s like God is whispering, “This is already in you. I’ve planted this seed—now let’s grow it together.” It’s not about striving to be someone else, it’s about stepping into the fullness of who He’s called you to be.

Redesign Your Emotional Home

If you act out sexually with another guy, use porn, or entertain comparisons, what emotional home are you coming from? Is it loneliness? Shame? A need for validation? For many of us, those moments aren’t just about the act itself—they’re about seeking comfort in an emotional home we’ve lived in for years.

Sacred Time. Sacred Purpose.

Time is sacred. It’s a gift from God, entrusted to us to use wisely. But too often we waste it obsessing over things that don’t serve us—whether it’s comparing ourselves to others, spinning in shame, or acting out in ways that don’t align with our values. It's a missed opportunity to step into the life God has called you to live. Make the best use of your time and energy and get excited about what's next!

Celebrate Courage

When we take small, courageous steps—whether it’s replacing a limiting belief, speaking truth over ourselves, or simply showing up when it’s hard—it’s so important to pause and celebrate. Why? Because celebration reinforces the behavior. It tells your brain, This matters. This is who I am now.
