In Episode 26 (encore), I get to share with you stories with the one person who has been the biggest part of my story, my wife, Lynne. Lynne, and I look back on our life together over the past 45 years.

We laughed, we cried, and most of all, we talked about all our life lessons straight from the heart. There wasn't ever any schedule of what we were going to talk about. We just started at the very beginning and we went from there.

We hope, in sharing these life lessons, you can relate to our story in some way.

We want you to know you are never alone and there is always hope!

This is Part 1 of 2 for Episode 26 - Life With Lynne... A True Love Story

In today's episode, I talk to Steve Arnold, Morgan Arnold-Slone and Dr. Madison Arnold... a dad and his two daughters. We talk "Family Dynamics in Sports".

What made it work? Was it all worth it?... and the life lessons they learned along their journey. Team Arnold, indeed a dynamic family with great life lessons to share.

This is an episode every family involved in sports should listen to. A Master class of Family Dynamics in Sports.

Be sure to pay close attention. There is one great life lesson to learn after another. I hope you enjoy the episode.

My guest today, Kevin Katafias, is someone I've known for over 30 years. He was my principal in the school district where I taught, a fellow high school basketball official and someone I'm fortunate to call a friend. Kevin brings a wealth of knowledge and life lesson experiences to us all.

He recently retired after 35 years in education. Kevin was a classroom teacher for six years, then a school administrator for 29 years. His roles included assistant principal, athletic director and school principal. He has officiated high school football 49 years and is in his 48th year as a basketball referee.

Kevin shares life lessons on leadership and the importance of building relationships with people from his years as a school administrator and high school referee.

Today my guest is young, Mr. Noah Roundy. What's unique about this conversation with Noah is, as we were talking, I suddenly realized this was literally the first time he had ever taken the time to look back on his own story.

Noah talks about how sports made a major impact on his life, family relationships and his own coaching journey. Also, the life lessons three influential coaches each taught him.

He's honest, vulnerable and speaks straight from the heart.

Be sure to have a great day!

"In the end... YOU are the one you've been waiting for!"

You may or may not know my guest today, Suzanne McCulley, but after you listen to her story of life lessons, I promise, you'll want to be the first one in line to become a member of Suzanne's Fan Club. After listening to her story and her wisdoms, you'll want to do the same thing I wanted to do... just give her a big hug. This is a person of enthusiasm, bravery, strength, and a love for life.

She uses words like honor, privilege, balance, and love. You'll also hear Suzanne use the words cancer, oncologist and chemotherapy.

Like me, I'm sure you'll be so impressed with how Suzanne allows herself to be so vulnerable in telling her story.

In today's episode, I talk with my very first guest on the podcast, John Cullen. When you listen to my conversation with John, you're going to hear and feel the wisdoms of John's words.

We share our life lessons:

• being grandpas, a great time in both of our lives
• how grateful we both are to enjoy our grandkids, their activities, sports and lives
• the importance of just showing up and being present for the kids.

John talks about these 2 beautiful thoughts...

1. "emptying the tank in giving mode..."
2. "relationships, walking through life together..."
