Welcome to the Speed Bumps Podcast – where we break down the lessons hidden in life’s setbacks.
From mental struggles to friendships, relationships, health, fitness, and business speed bumps, this show is about navigating tough moments and coming out stronger.
Hosted by entrepreneur Austin Evans, this show pulls back the curtain on the failures no one talks about—the real moments where growth happens—so you can learn, adapt, and level up.
28. Laying a Fleece: Trusting God When It’s Time to Go
Faith, Conviction & Going All In (Feat. Grayson & Scottlyn)
This episode was recorded in the Lean Kitchen kitchen in Lexington, SC right after a long, exhausting & exciting opening day. The audio isn’t perfect, but the message is.
I sit down with Grayson & Scottlyn to talk about early days of business ownership, faith & what it looks like to truly go for it when God puts something on your heart. We dive into the idea of “laying a fleece” - trusting God for clarity & direction - and how Romans 8:28 played a huge role in their decision to open Lean Kitchen.
They share their Yellow Bird Ventures story, which gives me goosebumps every time I hear it. It’s one of those moments where you realize God was working behind the scenes long before you could see it.
This episode is:
Motivating for anyone on the fence about going for it
Encouraging for couples building something together
A reminder of the power of faith

27. Just Go For It: The Nudge You Need
Sometimes the only thing standing between you and what you want… is you.
In under 10 minutes, I break down why overthinking kills momentum, how fear of failure is often just a vague shadow you’ve never actually examined, and why fear of looking stupid is the worst reason to hold back... especially since none of us are getting out of here alive.
If you’ve calculated the risks, weighed the options, and are still sitting on the fence, this is your nudge.
Do it. Don’t regret it later.

26. Parable of the Fisherman
Listen to me share one of my favorite stories— the Parable of the Fisherman— and the powerful lesson it teaches about success, ambition & fulfillment.
As ambitious people, we’re always moving the goalposts, chasing the next milestone, believing that happiness lies in the NEXT achievement. But what if we’re already living the life we think we’re working toward?
What is the balance between ambition and contentment? Not sure I know the answer to that yet...
This episode is a must-listen for anyone who struggles with the "I'll be happy when..." mentality.
