Have an episode suggestion? Text us!This one's for the guys who never ask, and for the partners who wish they would. I answered 12 of the most honest, uncomfortable, and important questions I get asked (usually in DMs) from men trying to figure out who the hell they are, how to change, and how to make things right.We're talking shame, trust, accountability, marriage, relapse, what Paige actually did that helped, and whether love is enough to save a relationship. I get into the biggest lies I told myself, the moment I knew Paige might actually leave, and what it really looks like to become a better man...not just a sober one.If you've ever felt stuck, ashamed, or like no one gets it, I promise something in here will hit. This episode is honest, gritty, and full of the stuff most people are too afraid to say out loud.Support the showFind video clips and full length video from this episode on YouTube and our other social media pages!On the web:www.twfo.comOnline Course: www.independentlystrong.comUse code WHEELIES75 for 75% off the entire course!Soberlink Device:www.soberlink.com/wheelsCheck out our blog:https://twfo.com/blogFollow us on TikTok:https://tiktok.com/@twfo_coupleFollow us on Instagram:https://instagram.com/twfo_couple/Follow us on Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/TWFOCoupleFollow us on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@twfo_coupleFind Taylor Counseling Group:https://taylorcounselinggroup.com/Donate to Counseling for the Future Foundation:Donate Here

Are you searching for lasting peace amid life’s storms? Stress, anxiety, and uncertainty are common struggles, but the peace Jesus offers is unlike anything the world can give. In this devotional, Vivian Bricker shares how the peace of Christ surpasses temporary fixes and brings lasting transformation. Through trusting Jesus as Savior and Lord, we can experience a profound peace that calms our hearts even in difficult times. Highlights The world offers fleeting relief through self-help tips and distractions, but Jesus offers lasting peace that truly satisfies (Philippians 4:7). Accepting Jesus as your Savior—believing in His death and resurrection—is the key to receiving His peace (1 Corinthians 15:1-4; 1 John 3:1). Jesus’ peace does not fade or get taken away, even when life feels chaotic (John 14:27). You can surrender your worries, anxieties, and fears to Jesus and find rest at His feet (John 16:33). Lasting peace often grows gradually; remain open-hearted and patient as Jesus works in your life. Counseling and therapy can coexist with faith, complementing the peace Jesus provides.

In this episode of the LoCo Experience Podcast, I spoke with Julian Faure, the Founder and Owner of Momentum Counseling and Consulting. Julien is a member of Loco Think Tank's Next Level III chapter and has grown his company significantly, from a start-up solo practice in 2021 to over 100 employees in 13 offices in a few short years. One of the topics we discussed was the challenge of constantly hiring and training and the high rate of burnout in the mental health industry. Julien  shared the significance of building a supervisory internship model at Momentum to train new therapists. He emphasized the role of community in mental health and how the decline in organized religion and service clubs may be impacting people's psychological well-being - isolation is our enemy.  Julian's life and business journey is inspiring; he moved from France to Florida for college, overcame language barriers during his first few years, and attended law school and practiced law for several years before finding his calling in counseling.  We reflected on the factors leading to the immense growth of Momentum Counseling and the risks and rewards of growing an enterprise vs. operating a practice. Finally, Julian shared his perspective on emerging trends in mental health, including the acceptance and benefits of telehealth and the potential benefits of chemically assisted trauma therapy.  His is an inspiring and still early-stage journey, with lots of great insights into mental health and well-being, so please enjoy - as I did - my conversation with Julien Faure.  The LoCo Experience Podcast is sponsored by: Purpose Driven Wealth Thrivent: Learn more

Have an episode suggestion? Text us!In this episode, we talk with a guest who opens up about the quiet, painful, and often invisible process of leaving a long-term relationship with someone struggling with addiction. This is not a story of one big moment. It's about years of internal conflict, emotional detachment, financial planning, and facing the truth that love alone wasn't going to fix it.She shares what it felt like to carry the weight of the home, raise children in chaos, and slowly lose pieces of herself while hoping things would change. When nothing did, she stopped hoping and started preparing.

How can the church help with mental illness and special needs?

Today is a really special session with a very special person, because today I sit down with my friend, and my “real life client”, Levi Lusko. A few years ago, Pastor Levi Lusko went through a devastating season filled with unexpected anxiety, panic attacks, and “spiraling”, and it hit him hard. We sat down for a raw, real, honest conversation about that difficult season, and processed his experience and what he learned as he navigated that hard time, including the morning he picked up the phone and called me to let me know he needed help. I am beyond proud of my friend, all that he's learned, and how strong he's become over the past few years. This guy is the real deal, and I couldn't be more honored to have played a small role in his healing journey. If you're struggling in this stage of your life, please don't miss this important session with Levi Lusko.  You can also ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠watch the full episode on YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

What if the very skills that make you a great counselor, pastor, or people-helper aren't the same ones needed to help someone grow? Many professionals feel a stirring toward coaching but aren't sure how it differs from what they already do. The overlap with counseling can feel confusing, especially when your heart is wired to support others. In this episode, we unpack the five core differences between coaching and counseling. You'll gain clarity on what coaching is, how it works, and why it matters. If you've ever wondered how to begin, whether additional training is necessary, or how to navigate dual roles with integrity, this conversation will guide you with insight, practical help, and encouragement. In this episode, you'll discover:     • Why coaching and counseling serve different purposes and how that affects your approach     • How to tell which role you're in and why that distinction matters     • What motivates coaching clients and how it shifts the conversation     • Key ethical and legal considerations for offering both services     • What to look for in solid, professional-grade coach training Start your journey to become a Professional Christian Life Coach! https://professionalchristiancoaching.com/
