Tim Timmons was diagnosed with incurable cancer in 2001 and given five years to live. Over two decades later, he's still here — and his music has become a testimony to what carried him through.
In this episode, Tim talks candidly about the diagnosis that changed everything, what it felt like to face mortality head-on, and how his faith held steady when the future didn't. He opens up about the years since — building a career as a worship leader and Christian recording artist with albums like Cast My Cares — and what it's taught him about purpose, doubt, and resilience.
This is a conversation about facing the hardest news of your life without losing hope.

Episode 46: Emma Zinck
Emma Zinck moved to Nashville from Fredericksburg, Virginia six years ago with nothing but a guitar — and built her career the hard way, one Broadway bar set and writing room at a time.
In this episode, Emma talks about the grind of establishing herself in Music City, the leap of faith that brought her to Nashville in the first place, and how her persistence caught the attention of hitmaker Bridgette Tatum (writer of Jason Aldean's "She's Country"), leading to her first publishing deal with SoNash. Emma also opens up about the craft of songwriting and what it takes to develop your own voice while learning from artists who've already had the hits.
Listen as artists, creatives, and entrepreneurs turn their dreams into a life on the open road.
