In this episode of Created to Be Podcast, the team explores the question: Who or what is shaping you? Through honest stories of failure, disappointment, people-pleasing, loss of platform, and unmet expectations, the conversation unpacks how the process of formation in the life of the believer reveals what’s already inside us. Rather than avoiding discomfort, they discuss how God uses it to bring awareness, refine posture, and form us into who He’s already shaped us to be. This episode invites athletes and leaders alike to stop striving, start noticing, and trust the God who is faithful to complete His work.

In this episode of the Created To Be Podcast, the gang is back kicking off a new semester of FCA by catching up and diving into the cultural conversation around “2026 is the new 2016.” As student-athletes and leaders navigate a fast, filtered, always-on world, Bethany, Justin, Darius, and Brandi, reflect on what life looked like before algorithms, constant connectivity, and performance-driven pressure.

Through stories, laughter, and nostalgia, they talk about early social media, landlines, built-in boundaries, and why those limitations may have actually helped shape healthier relationships and deeper identity. From an FCA perspective, this conversation points us toward a bigger question: who are we becoming, and what is forming us?
