  • How to Build a Strong Family on Purpose
    Jan 28 2026

    You don’t drift into a strong family.
    You build one on purpose.

    In this week’s episode of Legacy Life with the Lacefields, Chad and Megan continue their Advance series by focusing on the second pillar that shapes legacy: family. They speak honestly about how easy it is to be advancing at work while slowly drifting at home, and why winning professionally while losing relationally is never a true win

    Chad and Megan share their story of becoming parents young, choosing to fight for family despite broken backgrounds, and learning over time that alignment, not good intentions, keeps a family moving in the right direction. They explain why faith is the foundation, but family is often the first place pressure, distraction, and misalignment show up.

    This episode challenges the idea that families fail because of bad intentions. Instead, Chad and Megan point out that most families struggle because there is no clear direction, no shared vision, and no intentional rhythms holding things together.

    They unpack the powerful truth that presence matters more than perfection, especially in parenting and marriage. Kids don’t need packed schedules or more stuff, they need connection. Spouses don’t need grand gestures, they need intentional time and honest communication.

    Using Joshua 24:15, they emphasize that strong families are led, not managed. Leadership at home doesn’t mean control or micromanagement, it means clarity, consistency, and choosing your family first, even when work, schedules, and responsibilities compete for attention.

    Chad and Megan also share practical rhythms they’ve built over the years, including weekly calendar check-ins, intentional date nights, prayer walks, and simple habits that protect margin and connection. They remind listeners that if you don’t lead your family intentionally, something else will, whether it’s work, phones, sports, or busyness.

    This episode is both a wake-up call and an encouragement. You don’t have to be perfect. You just have to be present, willing, and intentional.

  • Choosing Alignment Over Resolutions in the New Year
    Jan 14 2026

    A new year doesn’t require a new you — it requires a clearer direction.

    In this foundational episode of Legacy Life with the Lacefields, Chad and Megan share the word God placed on their hearts for 2026: Advance. Not rushed growth. Not burnout-driven hustle. But forward movement rooted in faith, alignment, and intention.

    This episode is an invitation to pause, reflect, and reframe how you approach the year ahead. Instead of chasing resolutions that fade, Chad and Megan introduce a simple but powerful framework that helps guide decisions, priorities, and daily rhythms throughout the year.

    They unpack how choosing a word becomes a filter for decision-making, a posture for everyday life, and a way to stay aligned with what matters most — especially in seasons that feel busy, overwhelming, or unclear.

    At the heart of this episode are four foundational pillars that shape their family, leadership, and legacy:

    The Four Pillars of Advancement

    Faith – Building everything on a deep, anchored relationship with God

    Family – Being intentional with marriage, children, and grandchildren

    Fitness – Stewarding physical, mental, and emotional health for longevity and impact

    Focus – Living with clarity in work, calling, and stewardship

    Rather than chasing perfection, this episode emphasizes progress, self-awareness, and sustainable growth. Chad and Megan share real-life examples from their marriage, parenting, grandparenting, and careers, showing how alignment leads to peace, clarity, and momentum.

    You’ll also hear practical encouragement for listeners who feel behind, overwhelmed, or stuck. This episode reminds you that growth doesn’t happen overnight — and that even choosing one pillar to focus on can begin meaningful change.

    This is not just an episode — it’s the starting line of a year-long conversation about living anchored, intentional, and aligned with God’s direction.

  • Faith, Fitness, and Family: Building a Strong Marriage, Healthy Body, and Lasting Legacy Together
    Jan 7 2026

    What if getting healthier did more than change your body?
    What if it strengthened your marriage, deepened your faith, and shaped the legacy your kids are watching you build?

    In this episode of Legacy Life with the Lacefields, Chad and Megan welcome CJ and Sid, a married couple, parents, and faith-based fitness coaches, to talk about how health, marriage, and faith are deeply connected. Their story is honest, relatable, and encouraging for couples who want to grow together without pressure, comparison, or perfection.

    CJ and Sid share how their fitness journeys started in very different places. CJ went all-in with a bold goal, while Sid began with small, gentle steps during a season marked by postpartum depression and low confidence. What made the difference was not pressure, but patience, grace, and unwavering support inside their marriage.

    Together, they unpack what it looks like to pursue growth without forcing it, how to support your spouse when they are not ready yet, and why small, consistent habits often lead to the biggest transformation. The conversation also dives into raising kids with faith, teaching children to honor their God-given bodies, and making Christ the foundation of every area of life.

    This episode is especially powerful for couples navigating health goals, busy schedules, business ownership, and the tension between ambition and alignment. It offers practical wisdom for building a strong marriage, protecting connection, and keeping faith from becoming an afterthought.

    You'll hear conversations around:

    • How to support your spouse without pressure or comparison
    • Why small, simple steps often lead to lasting health changes
    • Navigating fitness and confidence after pregnancy
    • Building discipline without letting health become an idol
    • Making faith the foundation of marriage, parenting, and business
    • Teaching children about prayer, movement, and stewardship of their bodies
    • Setting boundaries and safeguards to protect your marriage
    • Why communication and trust matter more than control
    • How consistency, grace, and shared goals strengthen couples
    • What it means to live a legacy now, not just leave one later
