Episode 139: When The Holidays Are Hard
Let me ask you a question: How are you feeling this holiday season?
A) I’m feeling the Christmas magic! Grateful!
B) I’m sad or lonely or really stressed…
If you answered yes, you’re in good company. Maybe you’re having the best Christmas season you’ve had in a long time! Or maybe you’re coping with grief, illness, financial insecurity, or something else. There’s a good chance you’re dealing with some mix of all of the above, and that’s okay.
The holidays can be complicated, and every Christmas song tries to tell you to “be of good cheer.” I’m here to tell you that you don’t have to. And you’re not alone.
So how do you cope when the holidays are hard? Take a listen, and I’ll share some ways I’m shedding expectations this year. (And I sing a little too…)
Prayer:
God, we acknowledge who You are, and we are grateful. We praise You for who You are, and we thank You for what You’ve done. We know You’ve done so much for us this year, but we also want to come to You and say there’s many of us that are struggling this holiday season. May we base our expectations on Your expectations. May we be grateful for the gift that Jesus was in our life and is in our life, and the fact, God, that You sent Your only Son. And if that is the end of our gratitude, may we not feel shame in that being all we can celebrate. May You bring comfort to those who are mourning. May You bring freedom to those that are chained. And may You bring peace to those that are in pain. We pray all these things in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Episode 137: A Conversation With Christianity Today's Editor in Chief, Dr. Russell Moore
Today joining me is my friend Russell Moore. He is RUNNING Christianity Today. I have followed him and what I love about Russell is that he was able to find a lane that a lot of Conservative Christians in America needed him to find.
He speaks to the problems of Christian Nationalism, calls things out when they are not Christ-like and isn’t afraid to speak the truth.
He has a podcast called the Russell Moore show and recently launched a new book, Losing My Religion.
I think this conversation will help ALL of us, especially launching into the difficult conversations that are coming in 2024.

Episode 136: A Jaw Dropping Conversation with Mi Papá
I CANT EVEN WITH THIS EPISODE!!! There are so many jaw dropping moments! My Tia Nancy and my Papa came to Nashville for Thanksgiving. My Papa has always been a man of few words, spoke Spanish (which I forgot by the time I was in second grade), and lived far from me, so we didn’t have many of your typical grandparent/grandchild moments together. But. While he was here, I really thought to myself how important it is to me that I get to know him. So, I decided to pull out the microphone and start asking him questions.
We talk about his FASCINATING life story. The cultural differences. What it was like in the 40s to COURT my grandmother. What it was like while SHE was making more money than HIM.
We get into the problems in our culture TODAY.
Out of this conversation I hope you realize that it doesn’t matter what the perspective is that you come from, THIS conversation will blow. Your. mind. AND may shift some things inside of you like it did me.

Episode 135: Policing in America w/Ex-NYPD Officer Edwin Raymond
I FINALLY FINISHED MY MANUSCRIPT!!!! This book I turned in has taken it OUT of me but it is off to the editor and I feel breath in my lungs again!
Today, speaking of books, we have Edwin Raymond, author of An Inconvenient Cop: My Fight to Change Policing in America.
Since 2020, I have had a lot of people asking me to put a black police officer on the show. I wanted someone that was well versed, not emotive but also understands that there IS work to be done, and I found that in my new friend Edwin.
He served in the NYPD for over 15 years and was born and raised in East Brooklyn. He gives a very important perspective on policing in America. He shares why he became a police officer, why he stepped away and what he thinks can help the system.
I am SO grateful for this conversation with Edwin Raymond and think you will be too!

Episode 134: Hope For the Innocent Part 2 w/Wayne Burgess
This week is part two of our mini series, Hope for the Innocent. We have my new friend Wayne Burgess on and he helps to give us a look at what the back half of a wrongful conviction looks like. Last week, we talked with Artis who is STILL in prison and this week, Wayne is going to tell us what it has been like since he has been FREED from a wrongful conviction.
Wayne shares with us where he got his HOPE from, and we get to hear a unique point of view from someone who has been released.
I appreciate so much how you all shared last week’s episode and would love for you to share this week’s episode too! These stories are far too common and need to be heard.
*This week we get into a little more details about the case that involved a wrongful death, so trigger warning if you think it could be too much for you or if you have littles around!

Episode 133: Hope for the Innocent Part 1 w/Artis Whitehead
We are taking the next two weeks about something that goes unnoticed in our society. There are THOUSANDS and THOUSANDS of people incarcerated today for crimes they did not commit! This is why it is SO important to look at it. The criminal justice system is imperfect and doesn’t always get it right.
This is where organizations like the Tennessee Innocence Project come in. They are dedicated to exonerating the innocent in Tennessee.
We are gifted with two separate conversations with two friends. Today’s conversation is with Artis Whitehead. Artis is in prison as we speak but he is almost out! He was accused of robbing a B.B. King’s restaurant in Memphis in 2002 and he. Is. innocent.
In this conversation, Artis gives hope that is palpable and he is a true BLESSING. I am so thankful to know Artis and to introduce him to you!

Episode 132: Is There A "Perfect Time" To Go and DO w/ Chris and Sara
This episode is such a GIFT. We are being joined by two dear friends to me. I know we wrapped up the It’s Never Too Late Series last week but after doing this interview, I really think that this episode will INSPIRE you to go on a new adventure or a new journey and IT IS NOT TOO LATE!
Chris and Sara are full time digital nomads - they work FULL TIME on the road. Chris has designed so much of what you see - some my book covers, my website, and he has been a huge part of my life and my team.
What I love about this conversation is we talk so much about RISK and STORY TELLING.
What I think you will really connect with is that we lean into the idea of “is there ever a perfect time to go and DO?”
I am so excited for you to be blessed by this conversation with two friends I am so happy for you to meet!

It’s the last episode of the It’s Never Too Late series and I have loved hearing about the ways this series has impacted you!!

Y’all, my life is FULL and yours can be too!
Stepping into my 50s I am caring for my kids AND my parents. AND I am taking care of my professional life in a way I didn’t in my 20s. 30s or even 40s.
I’m here this week to remind you it is never too late to craft the life you want. This episode is for anyone at any age to be reminded it is NOT TOO LATE.
I’ll give you five ways and things to do that will help you create the life you want RIGHT. NOW.

Episode 130: It's Never Too Late Series w/ Executive Pastor Phil Rasmussen
We are on week TWO of the It’s Never Too Late Series and I am so excited for you to hear this one. Phil Rasmussen is an executive pastor at my church here in Nashville and one of my favorite people to spend time with.
In his late 50’s, Phil completely changed careers. In the same week that he felt all of his doors were closed, he got a call that completely changed the trajectory of his life.
This episode is FULL of truth bombs, left and right. We talk about how your most effective decades are your SIXTIES THROUGH EIGHTIES!!!
And what if the conversation is really not just “it’s never too late” but also “this road is not the end”?
He reminds us that in order to hear God, we must slow down.
If you are feeling like it may be “too late” for you in some area of your life, this episode is for YOU!

Episode 129: It's Never Too Late Series w/ Middle-Age Fitness Queen Mimi Ison
What is up, Human Hope Familia?! I’ll tell you what’s up— my age. That’s right. You know I turned 50 last month, and even just 2 months ago that would have really stressed me out.
But today? Not at all. I even got an AARP application in the mail, and I didn’t break a sweat.
And you know who helped me feel confident in my middle-age? Today’s guest: Mimi Ison.
Mimi LITERALLY changed my life and my viewpoint on aging. If I’m not getting old, I’m dead. Aging is a GIFT, people!
Mimi is a pro-age movement motivator. She’s a blogger and anti-ageism advocate. She’s crushing stereotypes all over the internet @heymiddleage.
This series is for those of you who think “it’s too late.” NO. IT’S. NOT.

Episode 128: What Bees Can Teach Us About LIFE with Jay Williams
I LOVE BEES!! And today we are talking ALL about bees!
When I learned about bees and how they operate, I was BLOWN away and immediately addicted to learning all about bees.
My friend Danica introduced me to Jay Williams and his bee school and can I just say, Jay and his bee school changed. The trajectory. Of my life.
Me, the guy who used to be terrified of bees, ordered 20,000 bees (Yes all those zeroes are supposed to be there!). I drove with all 20,000 bees IN MY TRUCK. When I tell you I would have wrecked my truck if one of them LANDED ON ME!! (You can watch the full story on my Instagram under my bee highlight).
This episode is about way more than just some technical bee talk. Jay is one fascinating human being. He comes from working in Hollywood as a cameraman, his sister is Kim Paisley Williams from Father of the Bride, he ends up being a firefighter, and BEES ended up being the thing that really saved his life.
I went out to Southall Farms where Jay is the Pollination Program Manager (and in charge of 4 MILLION bees!), put a mic on Jay and he was so gracious to share his story and knowledge. We talk all about what bees can teach us about life and the HOPE we can learn about from bees!

Episode 127: Owning Your Heritage (And Writing A BOOK About It) With Johanna Rojas Vann
Human Hope familia, let me introduce you to my new friend and this show’s VERY FIRST novelist: Johanna Rojas Vann!!!
When I tell you this woman is a BRILLIANT storyteller, I’m not lying.
I don’t think I’ve ever identified with a guest as much as I do with Johanna… and she writes about our shared experience as the children of Latino immigrants so thoughtfully.
Listen when I tell you that Johanna’s novel so BEAUTIFULLY portrays the intricacies and importance of what it means to be, have, and love immigrants in this country.
And remember, whether you’re a child of an immigrant or not, your family has stories. Maybe you’ll write a book about them, maybe you won’t. But take the time to listen, and you just might be surprised by what you learn.

Episode 125: Parenting Series - The Working Mom with Paula Faris
Insta Familia!!! I am SO excited to wrap up the Parenting Series with my friend, Paula Faris. Paula Founded CARRY Media which exists to celebrate, champion and advocates for working moms by passing them the mic.
We talk all about the tension of being a working mom, how raising a family is SO different in this country than others and the far too common MOM GUILT.
We get into how someone BEGINS to have these conversations and the necessary reminders for ALL moms like your kids being your priority but NOT your identity and so many more.

Episode 124: Parenting Series - Navigating Phones and Kids
This is quite possibly the MOST REQUESTED topic y'all ask me to talk about when it comes to parenting.
That's right... we're talking about PHONES.
This conversation will look different for every family and every kid, but it is INEVITABLE that every kid will have access to phones and screens. So how do we help them?
What worked 10 years ago, may not work today. Heck, what works now will probably change in 6 months. Technology evolves FAST.
If it feels like you can't keep up, I have some ideas.
- When is the right time to give your kid a phone?
- Setting age-appropriate boundaries
- Knowing your kids phone better than they do
- How much screen time is too much?
- Teaching kids about respect and privacy
- Modeling how to positively use technology
- Using parental controls
I believe that you can't rewind childhood, but you can fast-forward it-- and phones tend to be really good at fast-forwarding our kids.
Listen up if you want to hear some tips on how to help your child live in real-time with (or without) a phone.

Episode 123: Parenting Series - Building Your Community with Our Best Friends, Blake and Allie
This week, we have two of our very best friends, Blake and Allie. We raised our kids together. At least 50% of the things we tried with our kids, we got from Blake and Allie. WHEN I TELL YOU they have raised 4 of the greatest women on Earth! It’s been a joy to watch them grow.
In 2011, when I ruined my life and my family’s lives, they were the ones that said to me “you can live with us.” (If you don’t know this story, you can read about it in my book Kill the Spider). I don’t know that my healing could have happened without this family.
Now you know the guts of the relationship…
Today we talk about the importance of COMMUNITY when parenting…
How to create a safe space for our kids to not be okay…
The importance of not SHELTERING our kids from real life, but SHEPHERDING them to show the fruits of the Spirit through it all…

Episode 122: Parenting Series - My Kids' AMAZING Therapists, David Thomas and Sissy Goff
My kids' therapists are here!! I am SO grateful for David Thomas and Sissy Goff. They are the hosts of the Raising Boys and Girls podcast and are SO wise. They are also both Executive Directors of Daystar Counseling Ministries here in Nashville, TN. With a combined 50+ years of experience, they KNOW what they are talking about!!!
I’ve had each of them on separate episodes but never together. YOU AIN’T READY FOR THIS! You are going to need to grab a journal and a pen because some of what they share will literally change your life.
We lean into boys, we lean into girls, we lean into socialized behavior, we lean into medicated behavior, we lean into girls anxiety and perfectionism and how we tend to ask boys about what they do or think RATHER than how they feel. This episode is PACKED.
I cannot tell you enough about how this episode will impact you!!

Episode 120: The Most POWERFUL Story of Forgiveness and Reconciliation You Will Hear w/Mathais and Steven
I am FINALLY home from Rwanda and in Nashville for a minute before going out on TOUR!!!
Last week’s episode with Emmanuel really laid the groundwork for this episode, so if you haven’t listened to that one yet, go back and listen to it first!
This week, we are going to go deeper into the story and into the beauty of what the human spirit can accomplish… This week’s episode is very specific on FORGIVENESS and RECONCILIATION.
Mathias and Steven were the worst of enemies. Mathias actually murdered Steven’s entire family in the Rwandan Genocide.
You get to hear their story of forgiveness and reconciliation from THEM! Not only do you hear about the forgiveness between these two people who are now as close as brothers, you get to hear about how Mathais forgave himself, which is something we could ALL use a little bit of.
Just a warning, this is a heavy episode, and there are talks of violence, so this may not be the episode for our younger Instafamilia.

Episode 119: The Rwandan Genocide From Someone Who Lived it ALL with Pastor Emmanuel

I've been sharing with you all about my time in Rwanda on Instagram but wanted YOU to hear from the people I have spent the week with.

Episode 118: How We Can SEE Humans and Help End Hunger Around the World w/ Eugene Cho
This week, we have an incredible conversation with my friend Eugene. Eugene is an advocate for justice, an intellectual, and very grounded in his theology and humanity. He is such a good human that SEES humans.
Eugene is the president of Bread for the World - a Christian advocacy organization that urges U.S. decision makers to do all they can to pursue a world without hunger, whose mission is to educate and equip people to advocate for policies and programs that can help end hunger in the U.S. and around the world.
He shares with us parts of his story I have never even heard before.
We talk about immigration and how it has shaped his whole life AND his faith.
We get into what we can do to truly and honestly end hunger around the world.
I think you’re really going to love this conversation with my friend, Eugene Cho….

Episode 117: The Effects of Doom Scrolling
We do NOT have the capacity to consume the amount of content we are consuming…
We are not designed to continue to consume content at the rate that we are.
This week, I get into DOOMSCROLLING - a problem that we ALL have.
We have been holding ANGER in higher regards than EMPATHY because we are only built for so much trauma gazing…..
It can affect us both mentally AND physically.
I share with you things we can do to stay empathetic and emotionally healthy while still keeping up with what is going on in today’s world as well as how to have healthy social media boundaries.
If you want to BE a more empathetic, compassionate HUMAN, this episode is for you….

Episode 116: Why The 4th of July Might Feel Complicated & Why That’s Okay…
Roman candles, fireflies, and sweet tea… I LOVE the Fourth of July. I love this country and the ideas that it was founded on, and I love the opportunities it has given me and my family.
But just because I love America doesn’t mean that I have to accept its DYSFUNCTION.
It’s okay to be PROUD of your country and celebrate. And it’s okay to have a COMPLICATED relationship with this holiday.
This episodes gets into WHY the Fourth can feel complicated…
And why there is still HOPE for this country.
THANK YOU for leaning into these conversations with me and for sharing them. Our empathy will be the thing that leads us all toward freedom!

Episode 114: Mental Health Series - Healing Our Trauma with Dan Allender
It is our final week of the Mental Health Series and these have been some of my FAVORITE episodes of ALL. TIME.
This week, I have Dr. Dan Allender, Founder and Lead Instructor, of the Allender Center at the Seattle School. I have been following his work for a long time and he is literally a hero of mine. I wish this episode could be 15 hours long it is SO GOOD. This was one of the more special podcasts I have ever recorded…
We unpack the “shattering of shalom” and what shalom really means.
All the ways we numb our pain AND the difference between numbing and truly moving forward…
Why we NEED one another to heal from our trauma and how to GRIEVE with each other…
Dan also gives us practical next steps if you yourself are dealing with trauma.
I am so excited to share this special conversation with you!

When I asked my friend Don Miller to come on the podcast, I expected us to talk about his new book, How to Grow Your Small Business.

He is SO smart and there are so many great nuggets to take in during this episode.
I LOVED catching up with Don and I think this conversation will have you hooked until then end!

Episode 105 - Faith Series: My Pastors - Alex and Henry Seeley
You are in for a TREAT today! This week my pastors and some of my greatest friends, Alex and Henry Seeley, are joining me.
A lot of what I believe about healing and the Holy Spirit has come from learning from these two.
They share about how they started The Belonging in their living room, COMPLETELY unintentionally…
We talk about what a HEALTHY church can look like…
What to do when you’re let down by your leaders and how to ultimately build your foundation in God and the importance of encounters with the Holy Spirit…
Alex and Henry are GREAT examples of how to BE, SEE and FREE Humans…

Episode 103 - Faith Series: My Personal Story
HEY HUMAN HOPE FAMILIAAAA! Today we are starting a new series on Faith based on your feedback and what you wanted to hear!
My faith and how I go about doing the work I do go hand in hand even if “faith” isn’t the centerpiece of my weekly conversations on Instagram and here…
With this week being Easter, and faith such a cornerstone in my life, I figured what better time to dive in than now.
In this series we’ll have a wide spectrum of views, but this week I am doing something I haven’t really done before…
I am sharing my personal faith journey with you!! Like from Sunday School to questioning if God is even real to what I believe now as a member of a local church… We dive DEEP into my story.

I woke up this morning, after a lot of me talking on the internet for 3 days about the horrific tragedy that happened in my community here in Nashville TN on Monday at The Covenant School, and I had the thought…

So I did…
And they responded.
So my question to you is simple…
Are you ready to step up for the parents of the survivors?
Make sure you are following me on Instagram @loswhit as I give us marching orders this Monday…

Episode 101 - Interviewing my mom and dad as they battle dad's dementia. And 7 ways to care for a caregiver...
Today I literally interview my mom and dad on the episode.
The fact that my mom even said more than 2 words was miraculous because she IS NOT ME.
And I'm so grateful she lent her voice to the show so you can hear firsthand from someone who is living their marriage vows unlike any other.
And then you head from my dad.
And then...
And then we rewind 6 years and I play a clip from a message that my dad preached that was exactly what I needed to hear today.
I also give you a list of things to NOT SAY and things TO SAY to a caregiver...
Hope this helps...
Love you fam...

Episode 097 - The Full Story Of The Confederate Flag & How To Talk To Reluctant Family Members About Racism
So I posted a video on Instagram today about these 12 confederate flags that wave hello to me on a daily basis a few yards away from my house in Nashville, TN. I didn't think anyone would question the validity of my being offended. But then people did. And then I found myself having convos in my DM's that were eerily similar to my DMs in 2020. A lot of grace-filled yet OMG teaching.
To be honest I was a bit bothered. I thought we were past this. But alas. There is more work to be done...
On today's episode, I go into detail as to who the person is who is flying these confederate flags so close to my face on a daily basis and I dive deep into why the confederate flag is so offensive. We deep dive into the historical evolution of the flag and what it has meant through the years.
Knowing that some people see the flag as more of a pride of southern heritage. I discuss the problems with this.
I also give you 6 steps that can help you have those dreaded conversations about race with family members who dismiss racism as a political issue and not a real problem.
So in other words...
Today's episode is FULL of helpful stuff and I also let you in on last week's survey results!
You are going to love getting to know each other...
