Dave Barnes: Marriage, Kids, & the Life You Choose
In this episode of The Soul Talks, Theresa sits down with singer-songwriter Dave Barnes for a deeply honest conversation about success, family, faith, and what really matters in the long run.<br /><br />At the height of his career, with a hit song taking off and life accelerating, Dave found himself asking a question many of us quietly wrestle with: Is this it? What followed wasn’t just a shift in his career—but a redefinition of success itself.<br /><br />Together, Theresa and Dave explore the tension between ambition and presence, and the difficult choices that come with both. Dave opens up about choosing family over constant growth, the reality that success can never fully satisfy, and the intentional decisions that have shaped his life as a husband and father.<br /><br />They also dive into marriage—the way it evolves over time, the beauty of growing alongside someone, and the humility it takes to keep showing up through every season. Dave shares candidly about faith as a lived, everyday practice, not something performative, but something steady and grounding.<br /><br />This conversation is a reminder that a meaningful life isn’t built on bigger moments—but on choosing what matters, again and again. <br /><br />Subscribe for more soulful conversations.<br /><br />Connect with us:<br />Visit Theresa's Website: <a href="http://www.theresabruno.net/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">www.theresabruno.net</a> <br />Follow Theresa on Instagram, Facebook, and Tiktok: @Theresa.Harper.Bruno<br />Get your copy of "He's Not Coming Back": <a href="https://bit.ly/40qGX6Y" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://bit.ly/40qGX6Y</a> <br /><br />Connect with our guest:<br />Visit Dave's Website: <a href="https://www.davebarnes.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.davebarnes.com/</a> <br />Listen to Dave's Podcast "Dadville": <a href="http://bit.ly/4cOEFFT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/4cOEFFT</a> <br />Find Dave on Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/davebarnesmusic/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.facebook.com/davebarnesmusic/</a> <br />Follow Dave on Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/davebarnesmusic/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.instagram.com/davebarnesmusic/</a>

Dave Barnes: Humor, Music, and Calling
In this episode of The Soul Talks, Theresa sits down with singer-songwriter and storyteller Dave Barnes for a conversation that is as heartfelt as it is unexpectedly funny.<br /><br />From growing up in a small Mississippi town to finding his way into music later than most, Dave shares the moment when music suddenly shifted from something he heard… to something he felt. That moment would quietly shape the path of his life and career.<br /><br />Together, they explore the intersection of creativity, calling, and identity — how humor became a bridge for Dave early on, helping him find his footing on stage, and how he eventually learned to embrace both sides of who he is: the comedian and the songwriter.<br /><br />Dave opens up about the reality behind the music industry — the awkward early gigs, the lack of a clear roadmap, and the slow, organic way his career unfolded. He also reflects on writing songs for himself versus writing for others, and how success sometimes creates unexpected new lanes in life.<br /><br />This episode is full of laughter, honesty, and insight into what it looks like to follow something you don’t fully understand yet… and trust that it will lead you where you’re meant to go.<br /><br />If you’ve ever wrestled with your calling, your identity, or how all the pieces of who you are fit together — this conversation will feel like a breath of fresh air.<br /><br />Subscribe for more soulful conversations. <br /><br />Connect with us:Visit Theresa's Website: <a href="http://www.theresabruno.net/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">www.theresabruno.net</a> <br />Follow Theresa on Instagram, Facebook, and Tiktok: @Theresa.Harper.Bruno<br />Get your copy of "He's Not Coming Back": <a href="https://bit.ly/40qGX6Y" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://bit.ly/40qGX6Y</a> <br /><br />Connect with our guest:<br />Visit Dave's Website: <a href="https://www.davebarnes.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.davebarnes.com/</a> <br />Listen to Dave's Podcast "Dadville": <a href="http://bit.ly/4cOEFFT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/4cOEFFT</a> <br />Find Dave on Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/davebarnesmusic/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.facebook.com/davebarnesmusic/</a> <br />Follow Dave on Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/davebarnesmusic/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.instagram.com/davebarnesmusic/</a>

Lindsay Lawler: The Courage to Tell Your Story
In this heartfelt conversation, Theresa sits down with songwriter, radio host, and creative storyteller Lindsay Lawler to talk about the healing power of writing—and the courage it takes to tell the truth about our lives.<br /><br />Lindsay shares how journaling and songwriting have helped her process painful experiences, uncover hidden strength, and even hear wisdom from a “future version” of herself. What began as private writing eventually became songs, conversations, and a calling to help others find healing through their own words.<br /><br />Together, Theresa and Lindsay explore:<br /><br />• Why writing helps us move emotions we’ve been carrying<br />• The role of shame—and why speaking the truth breaks its power<br />• What it means when the dream you had at 20 doesn’t unfold the way you expected<br />• How dreams don’t always die… they shift<br />• The peace that comes when you finally focus on what you’re truly called to do<br /><br />Lindsay also shares the heart behind her project “We Should Write,” a movement encouraging people to write not for perfection or publication—but for healing.<br /><br />If you’ve ever felt stuck in your story, this conversation will remind you that sometimes the most powerful step forward is simply putting the words on the page.<br /><br />Subscribe for more soulful conversations.<br /><br />Connect with us:<br />Visit Theresa's Website: <a href="http://www.theresabruno.net/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">www.theresabruno.net</a> <br />Follow Theresa on Instagram, Facebook, and Tiktok: @Theresa.Harper.Bruno<br />Get your copy of "He's Not Coming Back": <a href="https://bit.ly/40qGX6Y" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://bit.ly/40qGX6Y</a> <br /><br />Connect with our guest:<br />Visit Lindsay's Website: <a href="https://lindsaylawler.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://lindsaylawler.com/</a> <br />Listen to Lindsay's Podcast "We Should Write": <a href="https://bit.ly/4rzzePr" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://bit.ly/4rzzePr</a> <br />Listen to Lindsay on Road Gang Radio at Radio Nemo: <a href="https://bit.ly/4tV67b4" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://bit.ly/4tV67b4</a> <br />Find Lindsay on Facebook: <a href="https://bit.ly/4kRML2o" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://bit.ly/4kRML2o</a> Follow Lindsay on Instagram: <a href="https://bit.ly/3MP0mLp" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://bit.ly/3MP0mLp</a>
