  • Designing Success Through Discipline
    Jan 22 2026

    In this episode of SHARE THE LIFESTYLE, Steven and Ron talk with Andy Manz about building a sustainable business and life by trusting proven systems, prioritizing relationships, and defining success beyond money. You’ll learn:

    How consistent habits and non-negotiables create long-term momentum
    Why hospitality and relationships often matter more than tactics
    How to design your schedule around family, faith, and focus

    Steven and Ron sit down with Andy Manz to unpack more than a decade of lessons from building a high-performing business rooted in discipline, trust, and long-term thinking. Andy shares his journey from early uncertainty and market skepticism to establishing a business that delivers both professional success and personal freedom.

    The conversation explores why trusting the process matters more than chasing shortcuts, how focusing on the right clients creates stability, and why hospitality is about how people feel, not just what you do. Andy also reflects on defining success through time, relationships, and experiences rather than status or material gain.

    This episode is a grounded, honest look at what it takes to win over the long haul and design a life that aligns with your values, not just your revenue goals.

  • Root Cause Medicine for Modern Families
    Jan 19 2026

    Most people are living in a body they don't fully understand. In this premiere episode of Share the Lifestyle, we’re pulling back the curtain on the "manual" for human health.

    Steven and Moriah Schowengerdt sit down with world-renowned expert Dr. Kyle Gillett to deconstruct the truth about functional medicine, hormone health, and the personalized care that the traditional system often misses.

    We dive deep into the foundations of root-cause medicine, covering:

    • The Postpartum Shift: What every mother needs to know about the hormonal "re-wiring" after birth.
    • The Metabolic Truth: Why your lifestyle choices—not your genetics—are the biggest needle-movers.
    • Hormones & Peptides: The science behind testosterone, peptides, and the "social media health trends" you should avoid.
    • Parental Performance: How to balance stress, sleep, and energy while raising a family.
    • The Blood Work Blueprint: Which markers actually matter and why "normal" isn't the same as "optimal."

    Whether you’re a professional hitting a wall or a parent looking for clarity in a world of complicated protocols, this episode is your actionable guide to feeling better and living with more confidence.
