In this episode, we sit down with Josh Stewart, Co-Founder and Creative Director of Rally, a family-branding company he built to help households do what most families never take the time to do: define who they are on purpose. Josh and his wife Bre live in Nixa, Missouri with their four kids, and their home runs on a simple conviction — that freedom comes from discipline, and hurry is incompatible with love. We talk about how that belief, rooted in their Christian faith, turned into Rally's work helping families craft a meaningful crest, manifesto, and set of core values, and what it really takes for a father to lead his household toward clarity and purpose instead of just getting through the day. This conversation could shape four generations after you!  Thanks again for listening!
