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)

Last week while Andy and Janine were in Colorado, something shifted. Between workshops, conversations, and time with business leaders, what stood out most wasn’t the content, it was the proximity. Life shared in real time. Prayer in the middle of the day. Conversations that went deeper than strategy. It reminded me: this is how Jesus led. Not through events alone, but through relationship and p...
How to Build Without Costly Drift
  This week on Heaven in Business, we’re tackling a subtle but critical challenge for every Christian leader: drift. In this episode, Andy Mason shares a powerful picture of what it looks like to be “out of alignment”. Not the kind that's because of failure, but because of success without surrender. Without yieldedness. It’s possible to be productive, impactful, and still slowly move off course...
