One smile, one text, one handwritten note, one choice to notice the person right in front of you. That sounds small until you realize how often the “small” thing is the exact interruption someone needs when they feel unseen, overwhelmed, or alone.

I’m joined by Jill Lublin, a powerhouse in the PR world and the author behind The Prophet of Kindness, and we go deep on what kindness looks like when it’s more than a slogan. Jill shares the moment an 85-year-old friend challenged her to imagine a “currency of kindness,” and how that idea quickly turned into a book, media momentum, and a bigger calling to spread kindness in everyday life.

We talk about Kindness Circles, the free monthly Zoom gatherings she started during COVID that have grown into a global community where people share real acts of kindness, support each other’s goals, and build relationships that outlast the moment.

We also connect kindness to mental health, grief, and presence. I share why kindness helps me move through loss, and Jill explains why she encourages one conscious act of kindness daily, not just random kindness when it’s convenient.

From retraining negative bias to building new neural pathways through gratitude, we break down simple habits that make kindness easier to live out at home, at work, and in leadership. You’ll also hear examples of kindness in business culture and why kind companies can create happier teams and stronger results.

Abortion is usually argued like a courtroom case or a campaign issue. We take a different route: a real story, a practical framework, and a challenge to build the kind of support that actually changes decisions and futures.

I’m joined by Roland C. Warren, author of Alternative to Abortion: Why We Must Be Pro-Abundant Life and President and CEO at CareNet, to talk about what happens when an unplanned pregnancy collides with fear, ambition, and uncertainty, and what it looks like to respond with faith and responsibility instead of panic.

Roland shares the pivotal moment that shaped everything: he and his girlfriend were undergrads at Princeton when a nurse assumed “of course you’re going to have an abortion.” They chose life, got married young, and watched God turn what felt disruptive into a foundation for family and calling. From there, Roland explains his “pro-abundant life” perspective rooted in John 10:10, including the connection between bios (physical life) and zoe (spiritual life). That shift reframes the goal from “win an argument” to “build the conditions for a family to flourish.”

We also get concrete about strategy: why fathers are often the most influential factor in abortion decisions, how pregnancy centers can welcome and equip men, and what CareNet does through a hotline, a national network of affiliates, and mobile ultrasound units. We talk about the rise of the abortion pill, why women need real medical care and real community, and why the local church is designed to provide “life support” through discipleship, mentoring, and loving relationships.

If you care about women, babies, fathers, and a better way to talk about the abortion issue without reducing people to politics, this conversation will stretch you. Subscribe, share this with a friend, and leave a review so more people can find the show.

Some wounds don’t start with fear. They start with the moment you realize you crossed a line, followed an order, couldn’t stop what happened, or lived through something that still feels unforgivable. That’s the heart of “moral injury,” and it’s why I invited Navy chaplain Larry Brant onto the show. Larry joined the Navy at 45, deployed with Marines in Afghanistan, and later served as an ICU chaplain during the height of COVID. Across war zones and hospital rooms, he saw the same pattern: people doing their best in impossible conditions, then carrying crushing guilt and shame in silence.

Larry breaks down the difference between PTSD and moral injury in plain language, including why they often coexist and why moral injury can make someone believe they are unlovable, beyond forgiveness, or even “contagious” to the people they care about. We talk about what actually begins the healing process: a safe, no-judgment space where someone can tell their story in pieces, be met with honor, and slowly reconnect to community.

We also get practical. Larry shares how he partnered with mental health professionals and adapted a VA model into an eight-week program focused on spiritual strength, self-forgiveness, forgiving others, and rebuilding identity. One of the most powerful tools is a two-way prayer journal that helps people step out of self-condemnation and begin seeing themselves through God’s eyes again. You’ll also hear a deeply moving redemption story about a veteran who finally chose to tell his wife the truth after twenty years of fear and distance.

If you care about veterans, first responders, medical professionals, or anyone wrestling with shame after hard choices, this conversation offers language, hope, and next steps. Subscribe, share this with someone who needs it, and leave a review so more people can find these stories of restoration.
