Many high-performing men were taught to stay strong, stay silent, and keep moving. The problem is that ignored pain does not disappear. It leaks.</p><p>This video unpacks how unhealed wounds show up as short tempers, emotional distance at home, overworking, numbing behaviors, dry faith, and a constant pressure to prove yourself.

Many high-performing men were taught to stay strong, stay silent, and keep moving. The problem is that ignored pain does not disappear. It leaks.</p><p>This video unpacks how unhealed wounds show up as short tempers, emotional distance at home, overworking, numbing behaviors, dry faith, and a constant pressure to prove yourself. It also challenges the belief that time, hustle, or success will solve what only truth, ownership, and brotherhood can heal.</p><p>You will hear why silence is not strength, why your past still affects your present if it is unhealed, and why healing does not weaken men but stabilizes them.

This episode is a direct call to men who want to lead with clarity, integrity, and biblical truth in a culture drowning in chaos.</p><p><strong>CALL TO ACTION: </strong>If this message matters to you, share this episode with one man whose influence is too valuable to waste on confusion.</p><p>In this episode of <em>Unlocking Greatness</em>, Ryan James Miller confronts the growing crisis of credibility among Christian men. Using recent cultural events and the explosion of conspiracy thinking as a backdrop, Ryan challenges high-performing, faith-driven men to reclaim their authority by grounding themselves in truth, wisdom, and Scripture.</p><p>Ryan explains why distrust of institutions can be understandable, but how unfiltered distrust quickly turns into paranoia and pride. He draws a clear distinction between biblical discernment and flesh-driven suspicion, reminding listeners that God is not a God of confusion, but of peace.</p><p><strong>Key topics discussed:</strong></p><ul><li>Why Christian men are losing influence by reposting unverified narratives.</li><li>How emotion, ego, and fear masquerade as discernment.</li><li>The difference between being anti-establishment and being biblically wise.</li><li>How misinformation damages your witness at home, at work, and in the Kingdom.</li><li>Why truth must be anchored in both Scripture and evidence.</li><li>How to evaluate sources by motive, not volume or popularity.</li><li>What it looks like to lead with integrity in a world addicted to outrage.</li></ul><br/><p><strong>Three Core Moves for Men of God</strong></p><p><strong>Discernment over distrust</strong></p><ul><li>"The simple believe every word, but the prudent gives thought to his steps." Proverbs 14:15</li></ul><br/><p><strong>Fact + faith = firepower</strong></p><ul><li>"You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free." John 8:32</li></ul><br/><p><strong>Influence with integrity</strong></p><ul><li>"The tongue of the wise makes knowledge appealing, but the mouth of fools spews folly."

This episode is a direct call to men who want to lead with clarity, integrity, and biblical truth in a culture drowning in chaos.</p><p><strong>CALL TO ACTION: </strong>If this message matters to you, share this episode with one man whose influence is too valuable to waste on confusion.</p><p>In this episode of <em>Unlocking Greatness</em>, Ryan James Miller confronts the growing crisis of credibility among Christian men. Using recent cultural events and the explosion of conspiracy thinking as a backdrop, Ryan challenges high-performing, faith-driven men to reclaim their authority by grounding themselves in truth, wisdom, and Scripture.</p><p>Ryan explains why distrust of institutions can be understandable, but how unfiltered distrust quickly turns into paranoia and pride. He draws a clear distinction between biblical discernment and flesh-driven suspicion, reminding listeners that God is not a God of confusion, but of peace.</p><p><strong>Key topics discussed:</strong></p><ul><li>Why Christian men are losing influence by reposting unverified narratives.</li><li>How emotion, ego, and fear masquerade as discernment.</li><li>The difference between being anti-establishment and being biblically wise.</li><li>How misinformation damages your witness at home, at work, and in the Kingdom.</li><li>Why truth must be anchored in both Scripture and evidence.</li><li>How to evaluate sources by motive, not volume or popularity.</li><li>What it looks like to lead with integrity in a world addicted to outrage.</li></ul><br/><p><strong>Three Core Moves for Men of God</strong></p><p><strong>Discernment over distrust</strong></p><ul><li>"The simple believe every word, but the prudent gives thought to his steps." Proverbs 14:15</li></ul><br/><p><strong>Fact + faith = firepower</strong></p><ul><li>"You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free." John 8:32</li></ul><br/><p><strong>Influence with integrity</strong></p><ul><li>"The tongue of the wise makes knowledge appealing, but the mouth of fools spews folly." Proverbs 15:2</li></ul><br/><p>He also shares a composite real-world scenario many men will recognize. A solid Christian leader slowly loses credibility, peace, and influence by consuming and sharing noise instead of truth.

Ryan breaks down why good intentions are never enough and why your calendar, your habits, your relationships, and your spiritual life will always tell the real story.</p><p><strong>Key Topics Discussed</strong></p><ul><li>Why high-achieving men avoid honest self-evaluation</li><li>The gap between intentions and outcomes and why honesty matters</li><li>How busyness becomes a shield that hides drifting faith, disconnected relationships, and compromised health</li><li>The danger of building success on a weak foundation</li><li>The difference between growth and greatness and why growth alone will fail you</li><li>A systematic process to evaluate your year across faith, marriage, health, finances, and leadership</li><li>Why one courageous decision can rewrite your trajectory for the year ahead</li></ul><br/><p>Ryan also shares personal stories from his own journey, including how injury disrupted his fitness goals and exposed deeper gaps in discipline, and why some men fall apart when success grows faster than their spiritual and relational foundation.

The truth written in evidence, not excuses.</p><p><strong>Start your year-end audit with the Five Pillars of Greatness Assessment: </strong><a href="https://coach.ryanjamesmiller.com/the-five-pillars-assessment" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://coach.ryanjamesmiller.com/the-five-pillars-assessment</a></p><p>This episode is a direct challenge to high-performing, faith-driven men who want to lead with integrity, build a stronger foundation, and walk into the new year with clarity instead of regret. Ryan breaks down why good intentions are never enough and why your calendar, your habits, your relationships, and your spiritual life will always tell the real story.</p><p><strong>Key Topics Discussed</strong></p><ul><li>Why high-achieving men avoid honest self-evaluation</li><li>The gap between intentions and outcomes and why honesty matters</li><li>How busyness becomes a shield that hides drifting faith, disconnected relationships, and compromised health</li><li>The danger of building success on a weak foundation</li><li>The difference between growth and greatness and why growth alone will fail you</li><li>A systematic process to evaluate your year across faith, marriage, health, finances, and leadership</li><li>Why one courageous decision can rewrite your trajectory for the year ahead</li></ul><br/><p>Ryan also shares personal stories from his own journey, including how injury disrupted his fitness goals and exposed deeper gaps in discipline, and why some men fall apart when success grows faster than their spiritual and relational foundation. As he says, “Good isn’t good enough. You were created for greatness.”</p><p><strong>Reflection Question: </strong><em>What truth have you been avoiding that God is asking you to confront before the new year begins?</em></p><p>And check out the links below to learn more about how we can help you achieve greatness.</p><p>Become a Man of Greatness by joining our FREE Community - <a href="https://coach.ryanjamesmiller.com/mog" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://coach.ryanjamesmiller.com/mog</a></p><p>Take the Five Pillars of Greatess Assessment Today - <a href="https://coach.ryanjamesmiller.com/the-five-pillars-assessment" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://coach.ryanjamesmiller.com/the-five-pillars-assessment</a></p><p>Become a Man of Greatness by downloading our workbook - <a href="https://coach.ryanjamesmiller.com/men-of-greatness-workbook" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://coach.ryanjamesmiller.com/men-of-greatness-workbook</a></p><p>Subscribe for more episodes on Christian leadership, alignment, and building a life that matches your calling.</p><p>Don’t forget to leave a comment—what can you add to this topic?</p><p>Podcast recording and editing with Riverside - <a href="https://riverside.sjv.io/ryanjamesmiller" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://riverside.sjv.io/ryanjamesmiller</a></p><p>Simple AI Recoding Tool - <a href="https://plaudus.sjv.io/ryanjamesmiller" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://plaudus.sjv.io/ryanjamesmiller</a></p><p>Let's connect!</p><p>X – <a href="https://twitter.com/theryanjamesmil" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://twitter.com/theryanjamesmil</a></p><p>LinkedIn – <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/rjmsalespro" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.linkedin.com/in/rjmsalespro</a></p><p>Instagram – <a href="https://www.instagram.com/theryanjamesmiller" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/theryanjamesmiller</a></p>]]></content:encoded><link><![CDATA[https://ryanjamesmiller.com/captivate-podcast/the-brutal-year-end-truth-most-men-avoid-and-why-its-costing-you-greatness]]></link><guid isPermaLink="false">fdadc72f-a2c9-4438-9f74-6e81d237262f</guid><itunes:image href="https://artwork.captivate.fm/ac6bad7e-7409-4bf1-b737-c45e9d6e6bde/cover-design-1440x1440-1.jpg"/><pubDate>Thu, 04 Dec 2025 02:00:00 -0800</pubDate><enclosure url="https://episodes.captivate.fm/episode/fdadc72f-a2c9-4438-9f74-6e81d237262f.mp3" length="11563276" type="audio/mpeg"/><itunes:duration>24:05</itunes:duration><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType><itunes:season>6</itunes:season><itunes:episode>285</itunes:episode><podcast:episode>285</podcast:episode><podcast:season>6</podcast:season></item><item><title>When Everything Falls Apart: How God Uses Loss to Build the Man You’re Meant to Be</title><itunes:title>When Everything Falls Apart: How God Uses Loss to Build the Man You’re Meant to Be</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p><em>What if the very thing that broke you was never meant to bury you—but to build you?</em></p><p><strong>Take the Five Pillars of Greatness Assessment Today:</strong> <a href="https://coach.ryanjamesmiller.com/the-five-pillars-assessment" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://coach.ryanjamesmiller.com/the-five-pillars-assessment</a></p><p>In this powerful episode, Ryan unpacks what it means to rebuild your life and leadership after loss.

They explore why so many men struggle in isolation, wearing false badges of honor that keep them from revealing their true selves.</p><p>Bryce shares his own transformative journey—from living with walls up and chasing self-reliance to stepping into meaningful relationships that refine, challenge, and inspire.

True transformation happens when we refine ourselves in community and then step boldly into where God has called us.”</em></p><p>Bryce echoes this call, urging men to evaluate their identity, connect with others, and find freedom from the world’s distractions by anchoring themselves in faith and purpose.</p><p>🔑 <strong>Key Takeaways</strong>:</p><ul><li>Brotherhood is not optional—it’s essential for growth, accountability, and purpose.</li><li>You can’t refine yourself alone; community reveals truth, sharpens you, and keeps you aligned.</li><li>Freedom begins when you let go of self-reliance and trust God’s vision for your life.</li></ul><br/><p><strong>Whether you’re feeling stuck, isolated, or ready to level up, this episode will remind you of the power of faith-driven fellowship and the freedom it unlocks.</strong></p><p>🔔 <strong>Subscribe for more episodes on faith-driven leadership, authentic personal growth, and ethical business success.</strong></p><p>Don’t forget to leave a comment—what can you add to this topic?</p><p>And check out the links below to learn more about our retreats, coaching, and free resources to help you achieve greatness. 👇</p><p><strong>Links:</strong></p><p><a href="https://coach.ryanjamesmiller.com/mog" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Become a Man of Greatness</a></p><p><a href="https://coach.ryanjamesmiller.com/Identifying-and-Challenging-Negative-Thoughts-UG" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Free Guide: Identifying and Challenging Negative Thoughts</a></p><p><strong>Let's keep the conversation going!</strong></p><p>Connect with <strong>Bryce Heinbaugh</strong> – <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/bryce-heinbaugh-mba-healthcare-trailblazer-2216368/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.linkedin.com/in/bryce-heinbaugh-mba-healthcare-trailblazer-2216368/</a></p><p><strong>Let's connect!</strong></p><p>X –<a href="https://twitter.com/theryanjamesmil" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://twitter.com/theryanjamesmil</a></p><p>LinkedIn –<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/rjmsalespro" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://www.linkedin.com/in/rjmsalespro</a></p><p>Instagram –<a href="https://www.instagram.com/theryanjamesmiller" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://www.instagram.com/theryanjamesmiller</a></p>]]></content:encoded><link><![CDATA[https://ryanjamesmiller.com/captivate-podcast/forged-in-fellowship-why-men-need-brotherhood-to-thrive]]></link><guid isPermaLink="false">d52890c0-d5ff-4945-a053-de514e1defb5</guid><itunes:image href="https://artwork.captivate.fm/ac6bad7e-7409-4bf1-b737-c45e9d6e6bde/cover-design-1440x1440-1.jpg"/><pubDate>Thu, 02 Jan 2025 05:00:00 -0800</pubDate><enclosure url="https://podcasts.captivate.fm/media/f5fc4579-1cc9-41a1-8a63-801f1763a96e/bryce-ryan-full-episode-dec-17-2024-bryce-and-rjm.mp3" length="21606209" type="audio/mpeg"/><itunes:duration>45:01</itunes:duration><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType><itunes:season>5</itunes:season><itunes:episode>246</itunes:episode><podcast:episode>246</podcast:episode><podcast:season>5</podcast:season></item><item><title>The Secret to Stronger Marriages and Greater Respect</title><itunes:title>The Secret to Stronger Marriages and Greater Respect</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p><em>"When we honor and elevate the women in our lives, we’re not just blessing them—we’re blessing ourselves."</em></p><p>What if your role as a man could transform your marriage, elevate the women in your life, and earn you greater respect in every area of influence? </p><p>In this episode, Ryan James Miller dives into the biblical call for men to lead with strength, humility, and servant-hearted leadership.

<p>In this episode, I’m sharing some of the subject matter for my upcoming book, “Wounds”. Writing it was an exploration of the wounds that I have incurred over the course of my life and how those have impacted me, and I can’t wait to share the full story with you soon. For now, I’m breaking down the different kinds of wounds from our past that could be preventing us from performing our best today.&nbsp;</p>



<p>I’ll get into:</p>



<ul>
<li>9 different kinds of wounds and how they happen</li>



<li>How we are ill-equipped to deal with devastation</li>



<li>How each wound can come up later in life and challenge us</li>

<p>In this episode, I’m diving into a topic that has been building up and weighing on my heart for a long time. In the wake of the recent tragedy in Nashville, I felt the need to lean into my faith more than ever, but sharing my faith-based opinions with others doesn’t always go to plan. I want to share my faith with others with love and understanding, and without fear, so I invite you to listen in on this conversation about my love for God and my faith in the path he has laid out for me, and for all of us.&nbsp;</p>



<p>I’ll get into:</p>



<ul>
<li>Adopting a respectful and empathetic approach while addressing contentious issues</li>



<li>Understanding what it means to love others as God loves them</li>



<li>Cultivating love and understanding for others despite having differences</li>



<li>Conquering fears and getting past hurdles to progress spiritually</li>



<li>Defending faith in a respectful and considerate manner, without condemning others</li>
</ul><br/>

<p>In this episode, I’m flying solo for a deep dive into our past hurt, and the idea that harboring our wounds from the past can hinder our ability to be successful and achieve the things we desire. We all want the best for ourselves and those we care about, and understanding our past hurt and actually dealing with it is a difficult but necessary thing to do if we want our desires for success to be realized.</p>



<p>I’ll get into:</p>



<ul>
<li>Three ways that past hurt can haunt us</li>



<li>Dealing with emotional baggage</li>



<li>Taking control of your inner dialogue</li>



<li>Getting over your fear of failure</li>
</ul><br/>



<p>This week also marks the 200th episode of Authentic Conversations, so join me for a drink while you listen and stay tuned to the end for some free gifts!</p>

<p>In this episode, I’m sharing my belief that the reason people fail to achieve what they want in life comes not from the outside, but from within. We all have wounds, struggles, and doubts, but we can’t let those things hold us back forever. There needs to be a way through them to reach the success we were created to achieve, and I want to help you find it.</p>



<p>I’ll get into:</p>



<ul>
<li>Finding that something inside of you that is holding you back</li>



<li>How childhood experiences can affect your self-image even now</li>



<li>Working with someone who will give you brutal honesty</li>



<li>Practicing mindfulness and becoming more self-aware</li>



<li>Setting goals to achieve, not to impress</li>



<li>Overcoming these struggles and building forward momentum</li>
</ul><br/>

<p>In this episode, I’m giving you a look inside my head and my heart as I share my experience from a 3-day fast I completed with my local church- while I’m still fasting! Throughout my journey with this fast, I was able to reconnect with and appreciate parts of my faith that I’ve wrestled with over the years, and I had the chance to gain more perspective on where I’ve been and where I’m going in life. This was an incredibly powerful and emotional experience, and I hope that this episode encourages you to look deeper into your own faith and consider doing a fast yourself.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<p>In this episode, I’m talking about some recent negative feedback that was triggering for me, and how I was able to deal with it and ultimately bring some good from it. In my own life, I’ve been on a journey to get better at empathizing and showing empathy in my content, but it isn’t always easy. I hope that sharing my experience with triggering feedback will encourage you to take negative feedback and turn it into something positive for yourself and your life.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In this episode, I’m talking about some recent negative feedback that was triggering for me, and how I was able to deal with it and ultimately bring some good from it. In my own life, I’ve been on a journey to get better at empathizing and showing empathy in my content, but it isn’t always easy. I hope that sharing my experience with triggering feedback will encourage you to take negative feedback and turn it into something positive for yourself and your life.&nbsp;</p>

But, as men, we’re also not always shown and taught healthy ways to deal with them. And until we fully realize who we are and those wounds are a part of who we are, we can&#8217;t fully be ourselves.</p>



<p>This week, I am rolling solo. I wanted to take some time to share some of my heart with you and ​​share a little bit of experience that I believe will be helpful as you are on the journey that you&#8217;re on to become the best man that you can possibly be, to become the man that God has created you to be.</p>

I wanted to take some time to share some of my heart with you and ​​share a little bit of experience that I believe will be helpful as you are on the journey that you&#8217;re on to become the best man that you can possibly be, to become the man that God has created you to be.</p>

<ul><li>How openness and vulnerability show strength</li><li>Diet culture and Tony’s struggle with body image</li><li>How to show up for you and your family, demonstrating healthy masculinity</li></ul><br/>

No one&#8217;s perfect and nobody&#8217;s ever operating at a 10 out of 10 in every area of their life 100% of the time, it&#8217;s just not real. So surrounding yourself with other people that you can emulate, go through life together and mentor is vital. Putting yourself out there requires vulnerability and humility. But once you do, you’ll unlock new levels of where you can go.</p>



<p>This week, I am joined by Jason Pearl &#8211; fellow coach and consultant, podcast host, husband, father and Christ-follower &#8211; to talk about rewiring your brain when life isn’t turning out the way you thought it would and overcoming vulnerability and insecurities.&nbsp;</p>

And he&#8217;s taken that experience and turned it into a desire to serve men that are dealing with several similar issues.</p>



<p>Together we continue to explore the topic of masculinity from Bill’s perspective, what fuels his desire to help others dealing with similar issues, and the importance of authentic vulnerability.

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">During our conversation, I had the opportunity to hear first hand about her iconic 2015 CrossFit Regionals injury and continued performance (linked below), we discussed the most recent season of her life that caused her to examine who she believed herself to be and how she was living that out, very practical tools to evaluate your life and grow into the person God created you to be.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">I cannot tell you how happy I was to have this conversation with Julie. She will always be that iconic CrossFit competitor, but more importantly to me, she will continue to be an example of living a life of authenticity&#8230;even when it hurts.</span></p>

<p>What Joel has done better than near everyone else on LinkedIn is taking his online connections offline. When Joel and I connected on LinkedIn nearly two years ago, he quickly followed up to schedule a call.

<p>This episode is packed with so much wisdom on utilizing LinkedIn to build your brand, create community, and help you produce the professional outcomes you are after.</p>
<p>We also hit on the nonsense people are doing (pods, automated connections and messages) to feed their vanity, the mistakes to avoid when using social media to build your brand and business, and how to create referrals and inbound sales opportunities.</p>
<p>No matter who you are, or what industry you are in, you MUST listen to everything Joel has to say here.</p>

<p>Immediately after Danielle and I were introduced through LinkedIn, I knew we were meant to connect and have this conversation. She&#8217;s a powerhouse with a keen sense of self that she utilizes to help other people find theirs.</p>
<p>This episode not only tells the story of how Danielle found her most authentic self through meditation, but how we can do the same. We discussed some deep struggles including why some desire to take their own lives when the pain cuts so deep. This is a great conversation to tune into distraction-free so you can take as much away from it as possible.</p>

Eric has become a great friend over the last couple of years and even a client.</p>
<p>In this episode, Eric and I discussed how I <span style="font-weight: 400;">started my business with $500 bucks to my name how I have fought to live out the dream I have for my family (it&#8217;s still a work in progress). </span></p>
<p>We also dug into:<b></b></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;">Coaching people to be the best versions of themselves</span></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;">Helping people to produce the best outcomes in their business</span></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;">My vlog (video blog) – sharing everyday situations that occur, a way to show authenticity</span></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;">How COVID19 crushed my business, costing me $20K a month in contracts</span></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;">How I put myself back together (again) to figure out a new way to keep my business going</span></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;">Helping people admit when they need help as the only way to make it through</span></li>

Eric has become a great friend over the last couple of years and even a client.</p>
<p>In this episode, Eric and I discussed how I <span style="font-weight: 400;">started my business with $500 bucks to my name how I have fought to live out the dream I have for my family (it&#8217;s still a work in progress). </span></p>
<p>We also dug into:<b></b></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;">Coaching people to be the best versions of themselves</span></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;">Helping people to produce the best outcomes in their business</span></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;">My vlog (video blog) – sharing everyday situations that occur, a way to show authenticity</span></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;">How COVID19 crushed my business, costing me $20K a month in contracts</span></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;">How I put myself back together (again) to figure out a new way to keep my business going</span></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;">Helping people admit when they need help as the only way to make it through</span></li>

He is the creator of Transformation Theory and author of the bestselling book, The Wonder Switch.</p>
<p>Harris impacted my life personally back in 2017 when in the midst of a magic show that he was performing for a business conference I attended, he told a story of wonder and imagination that stuck with me to this day. At that point, I began following him on social media and learned last year he was releasing a book, The Wonder Switch.</p>
<p>As I read The Wonder Switch, I further believed in the need to learn from more life growing up and understand not only how my life&#8217;s story got me to where I am, but how my life&#8217;s story can be used to impact others.</p>
<p>In this podcast episode, Harris and I discuss the misuse of our imaginations as adults, the difference between child-like and childish, the lies we tell ourselves that damage our wonder (and ability to tell our story), his definition of wonder and how to explore it, and so much more. He even blew my mind at the very end with a concept called &#8220;liminal space&#8221;. I may be new to the party, but it&#8217;s definitely a term with digging into (especially in our current times).</p>
<p>Thanks for listening and make sure to connect with Harris III and learn more about The Wonder Switch as well as all of the other amazing stuff he is doing.</p>

<p>Jake and I met through LinkedIn and I was immediately drawn to his desire to do right and his relentless pursuit of helping individuals and organizations making a positive impact in their communities. I was fortunate to hear Jake share his belief in the benefit of frameworks for business and life, the uniqueness of B-corps, why he loves helping other organizations that operate for good cause, amazing marketing tips, and so much more.</p>
<p>I would also like to apologize upfront as my audio in this episode (due to Zoom issues) was subpar.</p>

He is focused on improving content and messaging performance for cause-driven organizations.</p>
<p>Jake and I met through LinkedIn and I was immediately drawn to his desire to do right and his relentless pursuit of helping individuals and organizations making a positive impact in their communities. I was fortunate to hear Jake share his belief in the benefit of frameworks for business and life, the uniqueness of B-corps, why he loves helping other organizations that operate for good cause, amazing marketing tips, and so much more.</p>
<p>I would also like to apologize upfront as my audio in this episode (due to Zoom issues) was subpar.</p>

While I get the reasons why this is the case, I just don&#8217;t feel that&#8217;s the approach to take if we ever seek to reunite a deeply divided nation.</p>
<p>What&#8217;s fascinating to me is that like it or not, I&#8217;ve had more and more people asking for my opinions on a lot of these issues. Maybe it&#8217;s because I&#8217;ve gained some influence in the business community? maybe it&#8217;s because I currently serve as a pastor of a small church? Or maybe it&#8217;s because I&#8217;m a white male and not enough of us are speaking up and speaking the truth.</p>
<p>In this episode of the podcast (part 2 of 2), I was fortunate enough to have my friend Kody Fairfield join me in discussing a lot of these highly charged and extremely important topics. Kody has a background in politics and is an all-around really smart guy with a huge heart so I&#8217;m sure you&#8217;ll appreciate a lot of what he has to say. As you listen, I encourage you to do so with an open mind and an open heart and more than anything, a lot of grace.</p>
<p>You may not agree with some of the things we say and as a matter of fact, some of the things may actually make you angry. While I understand that that could happen, I want you to know but I&#8217;ll still be your friend regardless of how you think about the things I think and how you think about these topics yourself.</p>
<p>As always, thank you so much for listening and supporting me on this journey to be the best version of the person that I believe God has created me to be.</p>

These two severe issues were compounded an already significant problem driven by division over politics (amongst other things). I decided it was time to use my platform to share my voice on these issues.</p>
<p>This episode of Authentic Conversations was taken from an AC Live I recorded on June 12, 2020. In it, I not only share my views on those issues above, but I share my own personal challenges with forgiveness and reconciliation that have spanned my entire adult life. I have been hurt and I have hurt others. And I was brought to the point where I needed to resolve the issues in my own heart before I could ever make a positive impact on someone else&#8217;s.</p>
<p>Please take the time to listen to my heart on these issues and share it with others. I believe my thoughts are worth considering and the topic is something we must continue to speak on and make a positive change for.</p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In this episode of Authentic Conversations, Jenn shares a few of her most impactful moments, including the decision to abandon her early vision of becoming a school principal as well as the desire to leave a lucrative coaching career in the health and wellness space. She launched her Impact to Income Academy at the beginning of the COVID-19 shutdown and hasn’t looked back. Her passion, and gift to others, is helping entrepreneurs to grow their impact and scale their income as a result. </span></p>

<p>Darren and I had a great conversation and really pushed in the belief that progress is possible in healthcare when we seek change through innovation and passion. We discussed problems in healthcare as well as the opportunities to drive change, the amazing innovation in cancer research, and so much more. Also, don&#8217;t miss the fact that I initially brought Darren on because one of his employees recognized him as a great leader. You will hear him demonstrate that through the things he says, and does, in the organization he serves.</p>

<p>1. Our purpose in our organizations is to become a great leader that serves our people and our customers (no title required).<br />
2. We must have the ability to draw others into the direction we desire for our team/organization.<br />
3. We need to have the passion to believe what we are doing is right and the ability to convince others of the same.<br />
4. We must have a continued desire to model learning and growth amongst our team and organization.<br />

I felt like now was a good time to share my answers, and help other people answer these wonderful questions for themselves. After answering them last week on a live webinar, I decided to share the audio with you here.</p>
<p>Here were the 8 questions I answered<br />
1. What&#8217;s your life been like these last few weeks?<br />
2. How have you found ways to succeed in the midst of trials?<br />
3. How are you overcoming loss?<br />
4. Have your habits and disciplines helped you, hurt you, or disappeared?<br />
5. Who, or what, do you turn to when you have a bad day?<br />
6. Do you need help? Can you offer help?<br />
7. What are you building for the future?<br />
8. What are some areas you are focusing on for growth?</p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">I had the pleasure of hosting Mark on the podcast and we dug deep into the reason for his book, and more importantly, why he is so passionate about helping others with social anxiety. We spent time talking about what social anxiety is, why it’s important to recognize social anxiety is a perception, the benefits of a great diet on mental health, and why fear is important when balanced appropriately.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Mark is a great guy and has accomplished so much already. You will find a ton of value in this episode so check it and let me know what you think.</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Kyle and I had a fantastic conversation. We have been connected for some time and I have to say he is one of the most consistent people across every place I have engaged with him. I appreciate his passion for people, his joy for his work, and his commitment to do the best he can in everything he does. As we talked, Kyle shared some of the amazing ways in which he helps people find the best career for them (sometimes it’s within the company they already work at). Some of the other topics included:</span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;">Why giving advice is not the first job of a coach.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;">How his upbringing helped positively shape who he is.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;">The necessity of work/life balance.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;">Oh, and we dug into why he loves Disneyland so much. </span></li>

He and his team at Blue Light have developed an industry-leading content planning, production, and distribution process and teamed up with some of the best technologies in the industry to create results that matter.  </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Apart from what you read in a traditional bio, Mikhail is an amazing human and has become a good friend to me. As you will hear many times in this episode, what I admire Mikhail most for is his character, his leadership, and his heart to serve others and that’s exactly what made this episode one of the best I’ve ever recorded.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We spent time talking about the near-unbelievable challenges Mikhail had to overcome early in his life, what he believes really brings about joy and happiness, the keys to running a successful company, and why taking a helicopter to lunch should be a necessity for every hungry entrepreneur. </span></p>

And recently, Ryan Sullivan invited me to do just that on his podcast, Fatherhood on Fire. Here’s what he had to say to describe our conversation together.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Ryan brings the heat! We talk about Servant Leadership at home. The challenges he had to overcome to be the leader he wants to be at home. We dive deep into the social media post that caused me to reach out to Ryan as a guest. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Ryan&#8217;s oldest daughter, in her senior year, was informed she was going to play on the JV Water Polo. After the initial anger subsided she made the very mature decision to step back from water polo and focus on swimming which she is stronger at and expects to finish well at. She took the extra step to sit down individually with each of her coaches and explain her thought process around her decision and express her gratitude to them. Both coaches said it was the first time a student-athlete had ever had such a conversation with them. What we can take away from this as fathers: Give your children time to work through those situations instead of forcing them to make a decision when we want them to make it.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It happened because their household celebrates effort over outcomes. As a result, they&#8217;re able to identify the leading indicators for why things are or are not going the way we hoped them to. By them as parents demonstrating their commitment to reward and punish based on effort, not outcomes allows their kids to test the waters and figure these things out instead of the fear of &#8220;I did or did not make the team.&#8221; Laying that foundation as parents have produced really great results in times like this.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">AND that means as adults in the house we need to set the same standards for ourselves.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">At the beginning of 2019, for the first time in more than 10 years, Ryan decided not to write down any goals. He chose instead to focus on who he wanted to be as a person, based on the identity below, and focus on the habits that lead to the fulfillment of that identity. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">10 Habits:</span></p>
<ol>
<li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Read Everyday- First thing in the morning: Bible, current events, books that make him a better Christian, husband, father, coach, or consultant.</span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Work out 5 days a week &#8211; focus first on health, then improvement, then achievement.</span></li>

<li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Date wife twice per month.</span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Invest or save a minimum amount of money each month.</span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Give a minimum amount of money each month.</span></li>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Tim has been a close friend to me for many years so I enjoyed digging into his story of growing up as a pilot, working for his dad’s charter jet company, and having to make the difficult decision to leave the family business and “fly” on his own. As you can imagine, both working for and leaving a family business can be very difficult. Yet Tim has managed to work his way into an amazing new opportunity that has quickly realized great success.</span></p>

The more he shared, the more I realized how much I wanted to hear the story from her. And doing so on this podcast seemed like a fitting context</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Heather Falcone is the CEO of Thermal-Vac Technology, Southern California’s premier brazing, heat-treating, and finishing facility. They work with some of the Aviation and Aerospace industry’s most recognized brands including NASA, Aerojet Rocketdyne, and Space-X.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It took all of about two minutes into our conversation for me to love listening to Heather share her story. She opened up about growing up in a family business and eventually taking the reigns, her crazy reaction to being challenged to do an Ironman while she was overweight and out of shape, the horrific cancer diagnosis that could have ended her life, processing through her treatment with (and without) her family and friends, and her journey up Mount Kilimanjaro. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">You will be deeply impacted as you hear Heather tell her story of fighting for her life, finally giving in to life-saving help, and why climaxing the mountain wasn’t the victory she celebrated when she was done. Her journey to this point and what she’s taken away are things we will all resonate with deeply, whether we are climbing an actual mountain or experiencing an uphill battle that we can’t wait to overcome.</span></p>

The more he shared, the more I realized how much I wanted to hear the story from her. And doing so on this podcast seemed like a fitting context</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Heather Falcone is the CEO of Thermal-Vac Technology, Southern California’s premier brazing, heat-treating, and finishing facility. They work with some of the Aviation and Aerospace industry’s most recognized brands including NASA, Aerojet Rocketdyne, and Space-X.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It took all of about two minutes into our conversation for me to love listening to Heather share her story. She opened up about growing up in a family business and eventually taking the reigns, her crazy reaction to being challenged to do an Ironman while she was overweight and out of shape, the horrific cancer diagnosis that could have ended her life, processing through her treatment with (and without) her family and friends, and her journey up Mount Kilimanjaro. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">You will be deeply impacted as you hear Heather tell her story of fighting for her life, finally giving in to life-saving help, and why climaxing the mountain wasn’t the victory she celebrated when she was done. Her journey to this point and what she’s taken away are things we will all resonate with deeply, whether we are climbing an actual mountain or experiencing an uphill battle that we can’t wait to overcome.</span></p>

<p>Nate and I dug deep into the ways in which the HR role needs to change and why that will be an enormous benefit to organizations everywhere. He shared a couple really cool stories from the crazy days of Tesla (like the day when every employee became a salesperson). Nate was way ahead of his time in bringing strategic solutions to HR and benefits efforts and the wisdom he shares on the podcast is so valuable.</p>

She is a recent transplant to California from Nashville (who leaves Nashville?) though originally from Philly. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">While Hannah and I had a lot to talk about, a large majority of our time was spent discussing chronic illness, food sensitivity, and a need for personal responsibility in our healthcare. At the age of 13, Hannah began to experience some health issues related to food sensitivity that quickly grew into what seemed near uncontrollable. While some doctors were as helpful as they could be, much of the traditional health system was not helpful in her addressing the root cause of her issues. She began eliminating foods and exploring nutritional supplements (along with prescribed medication). She was officially diagnosed with Hashimoto disease (among other issues) in 2015. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Even after being diagnosed, her traditional healthcare providers were not much help. She determined the Paleo diet was best for her, started following healthcare innovators like Chris Kresser, did some testing including the DUTCH test, a saliva test, and various blood tests, and ended up engaging a local Functional Medicine Doctor in Lake Forest, CA by the name of Dr. Nick Deliberato.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">I believe a story like Hannah’s is critical for us all to listen to. But as we talked, we made sure to remind people over and over again that what’s good for one is not good for all. Your body is unique. If you are experiencing health issues, you need to seek out experts that will create a plan specific to you. </span></p>

If you remember, Kris was my guest on Episode 9 (</span><a href="https://ryanjamesmiller.com/exsellence-in-emotional-intelligence/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Exsellence in Emotional Intelligence</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">) and we had an amazing conversation. It’s my most-listened-to episode to date and if you heard it, you know why.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This time around, we shoot right out of the gate talking about her new book “#NoApprovalNeeded: Women Of The World Talk About Life In Their Forties”. While this book contains stories from women all over the world, it’s a great read for all. We talked about the commitment to writing, why she wrote it, and the beautiful and challenging stories women shared with her. She even sticks me with a couple of very difficult questions women asked of men. I know my answers won’t be popular with everyone (even Kris and I didn’t see eye to eye), but they were honest and from my heart.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Beyond the book, we again dig into:</span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;">Emotional intelligence</span></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;">Overcoming fear, self-doubt, and challenges</span></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;">Gender equality and the current gaps in society</span></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;">and so much more</span></li>

<p>While the audio is not to the quality I prefer, I believe the content and takeaways are worth listening to.</p>
<p>More on this keynote:<br />
By creating a visible and consistent personal brand that demonstrates expertise while communicating a desire to offer value, you will draw your ideal clients to yourself. We must lean into who we are and what makes us great. Then and only then can we create a process to achieve the success we desire.</p>
<p>Through great tragedy, I was inspired to reflect on this very idea of who I had become professionally. I thought I had it dialed in before only to realize I had lost a sense of who I was, clouded by my past successes and failures. Thankfully, my commitment to learn and grow from that experience resulted in me becoming an industry influencer, gaining the respect of my peers and the eye of my ideal clients. And I want the same results for others!</p>

I thought I had it dialed in before only to realize I had lost a sense of who I was, clouded by my past successes and failures.

With sensitive skin, she and her family tried an endless variety of products to make it resemble &#8220;normal&#8221;. Many products caused breakouts (even laundry soaps). They wanted all natural products, but most they found listed some ingredients that were baffling (even some of the &#8220;organic&#8221; ones), or they were ridiculously out of their price range. Being the lover of handmade items, they set out to make their own. They loved knowing &amp; being able to pronounce all the ingredients. They loved how their skin felt &amp; looked. They loved it so much, they wanted to share. Thus, Valley Vintage Soap Co. was born and remains a small owner-operated family business.</p>
<p>I met Amanda after being blown away by their products (Delicious Beard balm for the win!) and reaching out to thank her for her great product and service. It didn&#8217;t take long for me to consider Amanda a great guest for the podcast.</p>
<p>In this episode, Amanda and I talk about going the extra mile in serving customers, never compromising even when it costs you, and powerlifting! Check it out and let me know what you think!</p>

Managing a young, growing team thousands of miles away and whose members are of a difficult culture is a totally different level altogether.</p>
<p>But Devon Higgins, VP of PhotoUp, did it smoothly. How? By providing opportunities for better lives and professional growth for young, creative, and talented people over in the Philippines. In this podcast, he explains how PhotoUp was able to bridge the cultural and language gap between two cultures through a genuine, mutual desire to help one another.</p>
<p>The PhotoUp team lives its core values every day, in and out of the office, through the amazing FRESH brand. Listen to the stunning story of how FRESH took off, which is now wholeheartedly embraced by the entire PhotoUp organization.</p>
<p>Devon also reiterates that businesses must focus on helping people realize their goals, and not just making bucks. Finally, he talks about the discipline of staying true to your organization&#8217;s integrity, vision, and purpose.</p>

Managing a young, growing team thousands of miles away and whose members are of a difficult culture is a totally different level altogether.</p>
<p>But Devon Higgins, VP of PhotoUp, did it smoothly. How? By providing opportunities for better lives and professional growth for young, creative, and talented people over in the Philippines. In this podcast, he explains how PhotoUp was able to bridge the cultural and language gap between two cultures through a genuine, mutual desire to help one another.</p>

But once you give this episode a listen, you may think that statement isn&#8217;t too far from the truth.</p>
<p>Julee Huy is a full-time mom and wife (not to mention one of my dear friends). In this episode of the Exsellence Mindset, we discuss internet trolls, the value of mom’s in the office and in the home, balancing control and flexibility, loving oneself, and instilling discipline in the household.</p>
<p>Julee considers organizing and structuring her time as a crucial aspect of her life. Giving good structure to your personal life, family life, or business, gives you focus and direction. It encourages you to go for what you have always wanted.</p>
