Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ep.545: Midlife Money That Matters with John Coleman
Q: John, what's the most important aspect to start with in midlife money decisions?
Anchor in your life values first, then align spending, earning, giving, investing, and saving with those values to pursue the good life rather than chasing arbitrary abundance.
Ep.541: Grace Will Meet You There with Katie Blackburn
Q: How did community help you survive and rebuild for the long term?
She highlights friends, family, and a broader 'redwood' community that carried practical help (meals, cleaning, support during chaos) and emotional support, which allowed her to keep going and heal with others.
Ep.541: Grace Will Meet You There with Katie Blackburn
Q: Can you talk about that moment when your life started to change and you realized grace would be there?
Katie describes realizing grace wasn't a shield from hardship but a support during upheaval, particularly after the collapse of her marriage and the addiction issues in her family—leading to rebuilding life with help from her community.
Ep.538: Wide Awake in Midlife with Emily Love, Emily Jamieson and Krista Gilbert
Q: How have you handled your emotions historically, and what growth can you practice in navigating emotions?
The guests stress emotional regulation as essential for leadership and relationships; techniques include journaling, seeking coaching, slowing down, naming feelings, and acting in alignment with values rather than reacting impulsively. They frame emotions as gifts that guide growth when managed with integrity.
Ep.538: Wide Awake in Midlife with Emily Love, Emily Jamieson and Krista Gilbert
Q: What is your current assignment that God has given you right now in this season?
They discuss assignments as temporary, changing tasks within a larger calling. The coaching team notes their current work with the Transformation Triad and the ongoing effort to facilitate growth and transformative leadership, while acknowledging these roles can evolve but the underlying purpose endures.
