Today’s conversation is with my friend Jason Hickey. Jason is a husband, a father, a professional poker player, and a coach. But what really drew me to this conversation is his honesty about the work of becoming who we actually want to be.

We talk about addiction, healing, discipline, fatherhood, and what it means to build a life from the inside out. It’s a conversation about presence more than performance, and about remembering that the people we love most don’t need us to be perfect — they just want the real, authentic, present version of ourselves.

Today’s conversation is with my dear friends Steve Coughran and Jamie Davidson. Through their work, they help couples build strong relationships rooted in faith, personal responsibility, and a deeper understanding of the masculine and feminine.

We explore true partnership, parenting, and what it looks like to intentionally create a life that really reflects your values. For Steve and Jamie, it’s the road far less traveled. It’s a life of texture, and it’s included lots of border crossings in Central America and, currently, lots of chopping wood in rural Montana.

Today’s conversation is with Janet Flores Pavlovich, the force of nature and founder of Coyotas, the best tortillas on the planet. Janet grew up in Hermosillo, Sonora, the birthplace of the flour tortilla, and has spent years exploring how to restore dignity to traditional foods and the lineage of women who have nourished generations.

We talk about preserving culture through food, the importance of clean ingredients, and why looking back at the wisdom of our ancestors is essential to help us feed our families better today. And in that wisdom lies reverence, simplicity, and beauty worth preserving.
