   “When Life Doesn’t Go to Plan: How to Stop Feeling Alone and Start Again”

   In this episode of Man on the Mic, Jeffrey Mann sits down with his friend Olivia “Liv” Barnett, host of the Twenty Something podcast, for an honest, funny, and real conversation about dating, relationships, faith, and learning how to navigate life when it doesn’t go the way you planned. From Utah dating culture to awkward dates and “weirdos,” this one is equal parts meaningful and entertaining. Liv opens up about seasons of feeling alone and what actually helped her climb out of it. She shares why vulnerability is harder than it looks, how leaning on family and friends can change everything, and what it means to stop pretending you’re fine when you’re not. If you’ve ever felt stuck in a hard chapter, this conversation will feel like a deep breath. Jeffrey and Liv also talk faith and prayer, including how to build a relationship with God that isn’t only about asking for things. They explore the tension of wanting good desires like marriage and companionship, while still trusting God’s timing and staying steady when life doesn’t match your timeline. They wrap with practical dating wisdom, from how to handle uncomfortable dates to what traits actually matter in a partner, plus Liv’s word for the year: brave. And the question that might shift your perspective completely: What would you attempt to do if you knew you could not fail? Follow Liv and listen to Twenty Something on all platforms, and if this episode helped you, share it with someone who needs it.

   “Why I Kept Saying Yes to God, Even When It Didn’t Make Sense”

   In this episode of Man on the Mic, Jeffrey sits down with his friend Hayes Krause for a real conversation about faith, fitness, and becoming the person God is shaping you to be. Hayes shares how the gym became more than muscle for him, it taught him discipline, confidence, and the ability to keep showing up when progress feels slow. Hayes opens up about the role faith has played in his life, especially growing up as one of the few members in his high school in Colorado. He talks about how those core values protected him, and how his mission became the turning point where his testimony became his, not something he borrowed from his parents. From being called to Nairobi, Kenya to being reassigned to Arizona, then finally making it to Africa and later getting sent to Louisiana, Hayes walks through the twists in his mission story and the lessons behind the detours. He shares powerful experiences of seeing faith in people who had so little, witnessing miracles, and returning home with a deeper understanding that God’s timing is always deliberate. Today, Hayes is still serving, just in a different way, through coaching, content, and a fitness app built to help people grow physically and spiritually. If you’re in a season where you feel stuck, unsure, or distant from God, this episode is a reminder that small steps matter, and that His hand is still reaching for you. Chapters: 00:00 INTRO 04:23 "Faith and Values Through High School" 08:17 "Mission Call to Nairobi" 12:17 "Lessons Learned on My Mission" 13:46 "God's Timing in Kenya" 17:02 "Missionaries Reflect on Excess" 21:16 "Struggles and Faith in Africa" 24:31 "Trust God, Serve a Mission" 28:04 "Choosing Fate Through Emotion" 29:22 "Finding Clarity Under the Stars" 33:51 "Family, Faith, and Rekindled Spirit" 37:30 "Spiritual Blessing and Healing" 39:24 "Faith, Baptisms, and Transformation" 43:44 "Faith and Reaching Out" 46:09 Teaching Faith Through Struggles 51:46 Passion, Faith, and Positivity 53:41 "Complete Fitness Program Offer"

   “Filters Are Breaking Our Kids.” Trey Warner on Fatherhood and Social Media

   Today, Trey Warner joins me for an honest conversation about faith, identity, and what it looks like to stay grounded in a world full of noise. Trey opens up about ego death, humility, and the real work of showing up when life feels heavy. We talk about money, missions, and the lessons he learned from failure, leadership, and learning to build from a place of love instead of ego. Trey shares why he believes God is part of the process, and why faith is not about perfection, but about continuing to turn back to Christ. The conversation takes a personal turn as we talk about social media, filters, and the pressure it puts on our kids and on ourselves. Trey shares a moment with his daughters that changed the way he sees online validation, and we talk about what it means to build real connection instead of performing for approval. We also dive into dating culture in Utah, healing after divorce, and the tension of feeling out of place while still choosing to stay close to God. This episode is for anyone trying to find peace in the middle of insecurity, rebuild their relationship with God and themselves, and take the next step even when it feels small.
