How to Build Business Without Losing Your Soul (or family!)

What’s the point of building a business if it costs you your marriage, your joy, or your sense of self?

This week on the podcast, I sat down with two longtime friends - Dave Charlson ("King of Cat Litter" from the story I share in chapter 1 of God With You at Work) and Blair Reynolds, who are on a mission to help entrepreneurs grow emotionally healthy. These guys don’t just coach; they’ve walked through the fire of burnout, breakdown, and business identity loss… and come out the other side with tools that actually work.

Their message is clear:
1. You don’t need to sacrifice yourself or your family to succeed.
2. There is a better way - one that starts with rediscovering who God made you to be.

If you’ve felt disconnected, stuck in performance, or simply overwhelmed… this conversation will speak straight to your heart.

  • Top Symptoms You’re Not Okay
  • Why “strategy” won’t fix identity wounds
  • What happens when you find emotional safety + get honest
  • Real stories of breakthrough from clients like Mike Busby (CMA Album of the Year)

Don’t wait for a breakdown to learn this... This is your heads-up, eyes-up help from people who have experienced far too many friends and heroes burn out, break down or fail.

Take the next step toward leading from a healthy, whole place.

We Hit Every Goal... and Still Lost: How to Hear God in a Business Shift
When the numbers stop making sense... what do you trust? Every business leader eventually faces a season when the spreadsheets tell one story, but God seems to be telling another. That's exactly where Johnathan and Kara Sparks found themselves. After years of building a thriving construction and real estate business with Kingdom purpose, projects stalled, revenue dried up, and millions of dolla...
The Hidden Cost of Your Head-Trash
How much energy do you spend fighting negative thoughts? I didn't realize how much of my own energy was being consumed by internal conversations until recently. Thoughts like "I'm not enough," "I should be further along by now," or "I don't have what it takes" can become so familiar that they start to sound true. Janine recently shared a simple tool that has been helping her and many others dea...
