Episode 51 - Redeeming Same-Sex Attraction with Kim Zember

Episode 51 - Redeeming Same-Sex Attraction with Kim Zember

If a person experiences same-sex attraction, our culture often says this is one's true identity, and to speak against this narrative is to do harm. Yet there is a growing number of individuals who want more than the labels that are put on them by the same-sex agenda.

Join Kim Zember, founder of Overcome, and Freedom Coaching Founder Steve Pokorny as they travel down the road of Kim's past struggles with same-sex lifestyle to living in the freedom of chastity, while still experiencing her struggle. You won't want to miss this beautifully powerful conversation.

About Kim Zember: Kim lived the same-sex lifestyle for many years, but experiences freedom in surrendering her same-sex desires to Jesus in pursuit of the greater love she has found in Him. She provides insight into how to love those around them who identify within the LGBTQ community by giving hope and direction to those who may have same-sex attraction or struggle with their identity.

When Kim is not at home in Atlanta, Georgia, she is most likely found serving and playing with her 500 + children at her 'home-away-from-home' in Ethiopia through her ministry Unforgotten Faces.

Episode 46 - Redeeming Loss with Laura and Chris Ricketts

If you are going to love, you are going to experience the loss of loved ones. This is a part of the cycle of life.One of the most difficult losses is that of a child, especially a miscarriage. This can be devastating for a marriage, but there is always hope.

Join Laura Ricketts of Filumena, her husband Chris Ricketts, and Steve Pokorny, Founder of Freedom Coaching, as they discuss the loss of 8 children to miscarriage and the miracles that occurred along the way.

About Laura and Chris Ricketts: Laura and Chris were married on August 30, 2003. They both grew up in New Jersey, and can say they've known each other their whole lives. They have four awesome kids and currently live in the beautiful Shenandoah Valley. During their almost 20 years of marriage, they have navigated the loss of 8 children before birth, time in the Marine Corps, and Chris's lifelong compulsion to pornography and ultimate path to healing. This path included being twice separated, years of therapy, and even the rite of minor exorcism. Chris found freedom through Freedom Coaching and is now a coach. Laura and Chris look forward to the future as their now teenaged children continue to grow into the people that God created them to be.

Episode 43 - Becoming a Catholic Alpha with Jerry Jacobs Jr.

Episode 43 - Becoming a Catholic Alpha with Jerry Jacobs Jr.

Becoming a Catholic Alpha.

Why do we find our world in so much trouble? It all goes back to marriage and family. How marriage and family goes, so goes the world. And how goes your own marriage and family, so goes the world. No pressure!

Getting marriage right or wrong has profound ramifications for the whole of reality, so if you are not being attentive to the ins and outs of your marriage, in learning and applying the principles of genuine love -- inside and outside of the bedroom -- then your marriage is in trouble.

But do not despair, for help is on the way! Join Jerry Jacobs Jr., founder of Catholic Alpha, and Steve Pokorny, founder of Freedom Coaching, as they discuss the important topic of becoming THE MAN in your marriage.

About Jerry Jacobs Jr.: Jerry is the founder of Catholic Alpha, where he helps men move from wuss to warrior. Jerry is a life and marriage coach who offers radical relationship advice to men struggling to accept their God-given roles in society and family. The modern narrative of marriage is riddled with lies and deceit. It’s no small wonder many people are now finding their marriages in crisis.

Jerry’s marriage coaching approach to unflinchingly addresses the elephant in the room; namely that it’s not all about love. His program teaches men to reconnect with their marital mission in order to emotionally connect with their wife or fiancé. Far from perfect, Jerry’s own "Spiritual Battle” forced him to reconcile with death, faith, and responsibility early on. He has been happily married to his wife Mary Kathleen for 21 years, and they have 5 beautiful children.

There are two lines of questions regarding singlehood today:

Both of these are the wrong questions! To help us ask the right questions and get the right answers, join Steve Pokorny, founder of Freedom Coaching, and Anastasia Northrop, founder of National Catholic Singles Conference, as they unpack the state of singlehood and why this state in life is such a blessing.

Episode 40 - A Wife's Perspective on Pornography Compulsion with Laura and Chris Ricketts

Episode 40 - A Wife's Perspective on Pornography Compulsion with Laura and Chris Ricketts

Is there hope for your marriage if pornography is involved?

Meet Laura & Chris Ricketts. Chris was hooked for over 15 years, of which they experienced 2 separations in the midst of many children being born. Through much, much healing, they are stronger than ever. Come learn about their incredible journey from brokenness to healing and learn how our own marriages can be transformed from porn.

About: Chris and Laura were married on August 30, 2003. They both grew up in New Jersey, and can say they've known each other their whole lives. They have four awesome kids and currently live in the beautiful Shenandoah Valley. During their almost 20 years of marriage, they have navigated the loss of 8 children before birth, time in the Marine Corps, and Chris's lifelong compulsion to pornography and ultimate path to healing. This path included being twice separated, years of therapy, and even the rite of minor exorcism. Chris found freedom through Freedom Coaching and is now a coach. Chris and Laura look forward to the future as their now teenaged children continue to grow into the people that God created them to be.

Episode 39 - Untangling the Gender Bender with Dr. Abigail Favale

What is a woman?
Just 20 years ago, this seemed to be such an easy question to answer. But given the cultural forces facing us, we are being taught to question reality. Get this answer “wrong” and you might find yourself cancelled.

Join host Steve Pokorny, founder of Freedom Coaching, and guest Dr. Abigail Favale as they unpack the gender paradigm, how gender has come to eclipse sex, and how that shift is reshaping language, law, medicine, sexuality and our own self-perceptions. If you’re looking for clarity regarding the issues of sexuality and gender, you’re going to love this episode.

About Abigail: Abigail Favale, Ph.D., is a professor in the McGrath Institute for Church Life at the University of Notre Dame.

Episode 37 - A Priest Painting Nudes? What in the World?!? with Fr. Thomas Loya

Episode 37 - A Priest Painting Nudes? What in the World?!? with Fr. Thomas Loya

Have you heard this one? A priest goes into an art studio and begins painting nudes....

This this is some sort of sick joke, right? Think again.

Join Fr. Thomas J Loya, co-founder and director of the Tabor Life Institute, and Steve Pokorny, Founder of Freedom Coaching, as they dive deep into the world of art, beauty, holy nakedness, and encountering God in and through the created world. If you have any desire to encounter genuine beauty, you'll definitely want to listen in! And you definitely don't want to miss his story about John Paul II!

Fr. Thomas J Loya, is currently the pastor of Annunciation of the Mother of God Byzantine Catholic Parish in Homer Glen, IL. He is the co-founder and director of the Tabor Life Institute, as well as the host of two radio programs; “Light of the East” which can be heard in more than 60 cities across the United States on several Catholic radio networks including EWTN Radio as well as “Beyond the Veil,” heard on Ave Maria radio. His daily Facebook Live videos are loved by many for their humor and informative content.

Before entering the seminary Fr. Loya earned a degree from the Cleveland Institute of Art and pursued a career in commercial art and design. He later completed his studies for the priesthood in both Pennsylvania and Rome where he attended the North American College earning an STB from the Angelicum University. During his time in Rome, Fr. Loya first heard St. Pope John Paul II’s monumental teaching on the human person when he attended his weekly audiences about The Theology of the Body.

Fr. Loya was ordained in 1982 and later added to his Bachelor of Fine Arts by earning a Masters in Counseling and Human Services in 1993. Fr. Loya has served the Church in youth and young adult ministry as well as an artist and design consultant. He has directed many retreats and has been a guest speaker at several conventions including World Youth Day 2002, and has spoken at the NCSC numerous times. Using his background in art, counseling, and Eastern Catholic spirituality, Fr. Loya applies the principles of The Theology of the Body to an understanding of all aspects of the human experience.

Episode 36 - A Woman's Experience with Pornography Compulsion featuring Claudia Perez

Episode 36 - A Woman's Experience with Pornography Compulsion featuring Claudia Perez

Think porn is just used by men? Think again.

An increasing number of women are finding themselves entrapped in pornography use, and because it is seen as a "man's issue", the shame is often incredibly crippling. Like many men, these women think there is no chance of redemption. 

Join Claudia Perez, Freedom Coach, and Steve Pokorny, Founder of Freedom Coaching, as Claudia shares her story of early exposure to pornography, how it affected her growing up, and how she received healing and wholeness.

About Claudia Perez:  Early childhood exposure to pornography made her vulnerable to sexual abuse and compulsions. This led to overachieving as a coping mechanism, which eventually developed into severe anxiety and depression disorder. Her experience of healing and reintegration has driven her 20+ years of work helping families, teens and young adults find meaning and order in their sexuality.

Claudia lives in northern Mexico with her husband of 28 years and their five children. She holds a Masters in Safeguarding by the Pontifical University of Mexico, a Diploma in Prevention of Sexual Abuse of Minors by the Pontificia Universitá Gregoriana, and is a specialist in Theology of the Body. Her professional experience includes serving as a trauma-specialized counselor in her country and as an international speaker. Claudia joined the Freedom Coaching team in 2022, serving primarily females who are seeking freedom from porn.

Episode 34 - Experiencing Exodus with Deacon Michael Halbrook

Let's be honest: it is TOUGH to be a man after Jesus Christ. The world calls us to compromise, but God calls us to embrace our greatness. How can we follow this calling when so much of our culture is encouraging us to settle?

Join Deacon Michael Halbrook, COO of Exodus 90, and Steve Pokorny, Founder of Freedom Coaching, go deep into a discussion about Exodus 90. Come learn how this  butt-kicking, boot camp of a program -- but much more than a program -- is designed to help you and your brothers embrace discipline that will make you into more. Guaranteed.

He has a deep passion for evangelization, catechesis, and the liturgy, and a deep love for Eucharistic adoration, marriage preparation, and baptizing children.

He first journeyed Exodus 90 solo in 2016, then with a virtual fraternity in 2021, and finally an in-person fraternity in 2022 with which he’s continuing in 2023. He was involved with the Exodus team in collaboration and creativity to deepen the engagement of Exodus within parish life, and in the fall of 2022 he joined the growing team of Exodus as their first COO.

Episode 33 - Redeeming the Wounds of Divorce with Dr. Daniel Meola

Episode 33 - Redeeming the Wounds of Divorce with Dr. Daniel Meola

Whether we think so or not, divorce impacts all of us profoundly. "I'll be fine," so the line goes. But for both those who go through divorce, and for the children who grow up from broken unions, fine is anything besides what they are.

Why? Because this isn't what marriage, as designed by God, is supposed to be.

For children of divorced parents, trying to make sense of life, love, and the pursuit of a forever union can be incredibly damaged, causing us to think that maybe my heart's deepest desires are impossible dreams.

Join Dr. Daniel Meola, co-Founder of LIfe-Giving Wounds, and Steve Pokorny, Founder of Freedom Coaching, as they dig into this important topic to reveal a path forward of healing, wholeness, and hope.

About Dr. Daniel Meola: Daniel Meola is an adult child of divorce who earned his Ph.D. in Theology of Marriage and Family from the Pontifical John Paul II Institute for Studies on Marriage and Family in Washington, D.C. He has been leading retreats and support groups for adult children of divorce or separation since 2015 in the Archdiocese of Washington, and in 2018 he founded Life-Giving Wounds with his wife, Bethany, to spread the retreat, support groups, and other ministry to adult children of divorce or separation around the country. Dan and Bethany live in Bowie, MD with their two daughters and a cat.

Episode 30 - The Mindful Catholic with Dr. Gregory Bottaro

Episode 30 - The Mindful Catholic with Dr. Gregory Bottaro

Feeling distracted by your problems? The mindful Catholic is here to help! 

Join Dr. Greg Bottaro, Founder of the CatholicPsych Institute & Steve Pokorny, Founder of Freedom Coaching, for a discussion on how in becoming more mindful, we can pinpoint our problems and find lasting solutions. Far from an eastern religion spirituality, mindfulness can help us to become aware of ourselves and guide us to a path of virtue and sanctification. Join us for this very powerful discussion!

About Dr. Greg Bottaro: Dr. Greg  is a clinical psychologist and founder of the CatholicPsych Institute. He received his Doctorate in Clinical Psychology from the Institute for the Psychological Sciences, a graduate school that integrates Catholic philosophy and theology with sound, empirically validated psychology.

Before his degree, Dr. Bottaro discerned a religious vocation with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal (CFRs). He lived four years in the Bronx, serving the poor in the tradition of St. Francis of Assisi. Under the mentorship of Fr. Benedict Groeschel, this experience helped him form a spirituality based on Abandonment to Divine Providence which he now applies to psychological principles in his practice. He learned from Fr. Benedict how to discern God's voice and live a life in service to others. Six years after leaving NYC as a friar, he returned as a psychologist and founded the CatholicPsych Institute in 2012, which has since continued to grow and expand, serving clients around the globe.

Dr. Bottaro now lives in Connecticut with his wife Barbra and their seven children.
