Let me know what you think of this episode? How fear, lust, anger, and pride quietly hijack leadershipF ormer pro hockey player, Air Force veteran, and Christian marketing founder Dr. Dave Jones reveals the hidden motivators that can derail your decisions, distort your identity, and bury the vision you think you’re pursuing. If you’re leading a team, building a business, or trying to make sense of the tension between calling and pressure, this conversation will hit home fast.Dave shares the unlikely path that took him from being a bullheaded athlete to a surrendered leader, including the slap shot that shattered his nose and changed everything. From there, he and Dorsey unpack the FLAP framework from Dave’s book Plan to Win - fear, lust, anger, and pride - and why those four forces are so effective at pulling leaders off course. You’ll discover:   Why fear can look like wisdom, responsibility, or “being realistic”  How lust expands beyond pornography into people, power, and possessions  Why pride is the most expensive motivator because it hides so well  The difference between true mental toughness and simply ignoring the issue  How to spot when your vision has gone quiet under the noise of distraction  What Dave calls Holy Spirit Intelligence, and the checks and balances he uses before acting on what he believes God is saying  Dave also opens up about identity, self-image, and why who you are cannot be reduced to what you do. He explains how the same patterns show up in the boardroom and at home, why leaders need honest community around them, and how the persona we wear in public can mask the real struggle underneath.This episode matters because the pressure to perform can make unhealthy motives look productive until the damage shows up in your decisions, your relationships, and your peace. Dave’s perspective is a timely reminder that clarity, humility, and spiritual discernment are not optional if you want to lead well for the long haul.

Let me know what you think of this episode? When your results start slipping, do you hustle harder or question who you are? Jake Giffin joins us to discuss that the real issue usually isn’t tactics, it’s identity, and identity is tied to proximity. Jake is the founder and CEO of Halo Home Services, a leadership and sales coach, and the creator of the D6 coaching model, a framework designed to help men reverse engineer their outcomes and get back into alignment with God. If you’ve ever felt confident when you’re winning and crushed when you’re not, this conversation puts language on why. We dig into what it means to “rewire” or “reprogram” the mind as a Christian without turning faith into a self-help project. Jake connects modern psychology with biblical psychology, measuring tools like transactional analysis and NLP against Scripture, then grounding the process in Romans 12:2, taking thoughts captive, and the put off and put on pattern. We also use Galatians 5 as a practical diagnostic: if the fruit of the Spirit isn’t showing up, what are you actually walking in, and what belief system is feeding it? We go straight at the common reasons Christian men feel passive, numb, or stuck even when they believe in God: shame, distance, and the subtle lie of “I’m basically fine.” Jake explains how a man’s identity drives beliefs, beliefs drive conduct, and conduct creates the conditions he lives in, for better or worse. He also shares his upcoming book, Made Man, plus a free assessment at mademan.net/assessment for anyone who wants to get honest about their current results.

Let me know what you think of this episode? Some trauma is fueled by fear. Some trauma is fueled by guilt, shame, and the quiet sentence, “I can’t be forgiven.” That’s where the idea of moral injury changes the entire conversation about PTSD, spiritual health, and what real healing requires.  We talk with Navy chaplain Larry Blant, who brings 25 years of pastoral ministry, years of police and fire chaplaincy, and combat experience with Marines in Helmand Province, Afghanistan. Larry explains PTSD as fear-based trauma and moral injury as the deeper wound that forms when you do something, are ordered to do something, or fail to prevent something that violates your core moral and spiritual beliefs. If you’ve ever heard someone say, “My soul feels shattered,” Larry helps us name what’s happening and why a quick fix rarely works.  We also get practical: how to find a safe place to tell the story, why many people pull away from family and church, and how programs like Building Spiritual Strength bring pastoral counseling and mental health care together for veterans and active duty service members. Along the way, Larry shares what he learned as an ICU chaplain during COVID, what effective VA support can look like, and how grace can rebuild a person’s faith, relationships, and sense of self even when the memories don’t disappear.  If you care about veterans, first responders, trauma recovery, spiritual care, or church leadership, this conversation offers language, warning signs, and a hopeful path forward.

Let me know what you think of this episode? Trauma doesn’t have to be dramatic to be real. When someone lives through years of control, gaslighting, and image-obsessed “love,” the nervous system can start acting like it’s still in danger, even after the relationship ends. That’s why I sat down with Taylor Williams, founder of Trinity Trauma Therapy, to talk about narcissistic abuse recovery, religious trauma, and the quiet ways pain gets stored in the body and mind. We dig into what narcissistic behaviour actually looks like: a selective lack of empathy, constant deflection, denial, and the pressure to keep up a public story at any cost. Taylor explains why so many clients report PTSD symptoms without a single “classic” trauma event, and how spiritual abuse can happen when Scripture is used as a control tactic. If you’ve ever struggled to see God as a good Father because faith was tied to fear, shame, or conditional approval, you’ll hear language that helps you separate God’s character from someone else’s manipulation. Taylor also breaks down EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) in plain terms, including bilateral stimulation and how the brain can “rewire” around old memories. We talk about why safety and basic needs matter before deep trauma work, what healthy support can look like for Christians and non-Christians alike, and the first boundaries that often signal real freedom: saying no without over-explaining, protecting your time, and finally naming your wants and needs. If this conversation helps, subscribe, share it with someone who needs hope, and leave a review so more survivors can find real support.
