   Ep. 21 | You Don’t Need More Followers, You Need THIS

   Welcome back to the show, where we help kingdom entrepreneurs turn their everyday lives into eternal impact. Today I am hanging out with one of my absolute favorite humans on the planet, my brother and knucklehead extraordinaire, Aaron Hoffman. Aaron is a pastor turned shaved-ice entrepreneur, a man who has walked through deep loss, wild transition, and crazy favor, and still somehow manages to send the most ridiculous voice notes that make my entire day. In this episode, we pull back the curtain on real friendship, the power of an inner circle that tells you the truth, and why most guys are starving for the kind of brotherhood that actually knows what your kitchen looks like when life is messy. We are also diving into why your business is not just a way to make money but a weapon for the kingdom. Aaron and I get into AI, influence, personal branding, and what it looks like to stop hiding your faith behind the counter and put it front and center on your platform. If you have ever felt like you were born for more, sitting on a gift you are afraid to share because you might lose followers, clients, or comfort, this conversation is for you. Get ready to laugh, get challenged, and start seeing your work as worship and your company as a cause.

   Ep. 20 | Beyond the Brush: Designing a Life of Intention

   Today, I'm incredibly excited because I'm sitting down with one of my best friends, Dave Monnig from Coast Airbrush - a friendship that spans over 35 years. This episode isn't just about airbrushing or a specific craft. It's about entrepreneurship, creativity, drive, and grit. If you're someone who wants to truly design your life instead of just letting life happen to you, this conversation is for you. As I always say, if you're not living with a plan, you're essentially a target - just waiting to get bombarded by life's challenges. Dave and I are going to share our journeys, our failures, our successes, and most importantly, the lessons we've learned about building something meaningful. We're going to dive into how two young guys with virtually nothing but determination transformed an industry, built businesses, and ultimately discovered that true success isn't about money - it's about purpose, community, and making a real difference. Having started Coast airbrush just out of High School with his Father, David became the industry standard for airbrush artists in the field of custom painters, fine artists, automotive painters, and hobbyists. Over the last 35 years, Coast Airbrush has become the leading authority in airbrush education and training and the main hub for the global airbrush community. David has been a crucial contributor to the development and innovation of airbrush manufacturers and paint manufacturers. David has a heart for helping custom painters thrive in their careers with the best products and support.

   Ep. 19 | From Athlete to Trainer: The Ripple Effects of a Disciplined Body

   In this episode of Creating a Life by Design, I have one of my great friends and personal trainers, Zach Wade, joining me! We’re going to dive into holistic personal development, centered on fitness as a transformative discipline that extends far beyond physical appearance. How does intentional physical training serve as a pathway to spiritual, mental, and professional growth? Disciplined body management creates a ripple effect across all life domains. Zach shares his personal insights into how consistent exercise primes the brain for challenges, builds resilience, and represents a form of self-love and spiritual glorification. Having Zach as a coach who provides customized guidance, accountability, and strategic planning has been a game-changer for me. True transformation comes from metabolizing truth rather than merely consuming information. During his long career as a high-level athlete and DI football player, Zach trained and worked with some of the best trainers, athletes, fitness influencers, and coaches in the world. In the process, he became a certified fitness trainer himself. Drawing on knowledge from across fields, Zach has created his own training lane that focuses on both performance and aesthetic aspects. Through his model, he has had the privilege of working with many celebrities, models, and social media influencers, helping them achieve the best shape of their lives, both physically and mentally. Zach’s ultimate goal is to help people understand that working out is not just about looking good, but about preparing you to handle everything this game of life throws at you.
