Adam Doleac is a critically acclaimed singer, songwriter and rising country music star. Taking the Nashville scene by storm with his unique signature sound. Born in Hattiesburg, Mississippi Doleac initially chased his big league dreams with a baseball scholarship to the University of Southern Mississippi. But soon realized his true calling was creating music. Self-taught on multiple instruments, Doleac became proficient in guitar, drums and piano and soon decided to leave the sports world behind to pursue a music career.  Adam spent several years pinning lyrics from notable names including Kane Brown, Lainey Wilson, Dan + Shay, Nate Smith, Gabby Barrett, Darius Rooker, Hootie & the Blowfish and more. In 2017, his self-titled debut AP produced gold certified song famous and was followed by his debut album, Barstool Whiskey Wonderland released in 2022.  With over a half a billion audio and videos streamed today, Doleac's soulful voice and heartfelt lyrics have won over a legion of fans and audiences across the globe. We convinced Adam to bring his delightful wife, MacKinnon with him and together we talked about everything from the Enneagram to a song that brought Thomas to tears.

*This episode mentions suicide and may be triggering for some listeners. This week, we’ll hear from Erin Leigh Nelson, founding executive director of Jessica’s House, a grief support center for children, teens, young adults, and their families coping with the loss of a parent or sibling. Erin’s story is marked by deep personal loss—waves of tragedy that shaped her life and inspired a mission to help others heal. Through heartbreak and resilience, she’s found a way to create a space where young hearts can find hope, expression, and connection. Later in the episode, we’ll hear from Allie Marie Smith, a writer, speaker, mental health advocate, and founder of Wonderfully Made, a nonprofit that helps young women discover their worth. Once a high-achieving student and athlete, Allie faced a battle with depression and trauma that reshaped her path.

I wondered where God was and if He noticed. I had prayed so much for protection for my children, and I went into a raw place of grief.” - Erin Leigh Nelson “I experienced this beholding of love that was so deep—and it was beautiful in some way—because I had this feeling of God surrounding me even in the darkness.” - Erin Leigh Nelson “I adopted a practice of just sitting in silence in God’s love for ten minutes every morning. I think it really did increase my intimacy with Him because I was able to be so honest and be in a place of unbelief for as long as it took.” - Erin Leigh Nelson “When a child has support, when they can express what they’re going through, when they can find ways of expression through art and music and play, they are more likely to experience post-traumatic growth.” - Erin Leigh Nelson “If you don’t take the time to be with your healing, to surrender to the grief process that God has placed in each of us, sometimes we can miss the depth of how much healing we can discover for ourselves.” - Erin Leigh Nelson “Every day was a battle. I was struggling silently, and no one knew. The way I coped was I hustled for my worth, and I pushed back against the depression through overachieving and through perfectionism.” - Allie Marie Smith “I felt abandoned by God. I thought that when I gave my life to Him, I wouldn’t have any more troubles or I would never struggle with mental health issues again.” - Allie Marie Smith “I have been waiting my entire life to hear that I wasn’t an accident, that there was a God who intentionally and lovingly created me with awe and dignity and purpose, and that I was so loved and held by God.” - Allie Marie Smith “As we meditate on things that are true and good and lovely, God can actually heal the neural pathways in our brain. We can live our lives to the fullest without any regrets.” - Allie Marie Smith “You’re not broken. You have been chosen. You are so valuable and loved, and God has a hope and a future for you. This isn’t the end of your story—there is hope.” - Allie Marie Smith ________________________ Enjoy watching these additional videos from Jesus Calling YouTube channel!

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1104: EV service frustrations rise as electric sales grow, Honda steps into the insurance game, and Walmart unveils Sparky—its bold AI move to replace the search bar.Show Notes with links:Electric vehicle sales hit a new high in the first half of 2025, but the surge is putting pressure on service departments nationwide. According to CDK Global's EV Ownership Study, more EVs are hitting the service lane — and owners are increasingly frustrated with the experience.Q2 EV sales rose nearly 5% over Q1; first-half total reached a record 607,000+ units.Only 28% of EV owners reported same-day service in 2024 — down from 40% in 2023.85% of new EV owners needed dealership service in year one, often for recalls or minor repairs.Multiple visits are becoming common: 34% of non-Tesla owners said service took longer than for gas vehicles, with 21% saying it took 4 visits or more.Our friend David Thomas of CDK: “We know dealers are prepared for EV service, but these numbers getting worse is not a good sign as more non-Tesla EVs are on the road than ever before.”Honda is taking a big step into the insurance space with the launch of Honda Insurance Solutions — a licensed agency designed to offer customers competitive, convenient coverage as part of the overall ownership experience.Available in all 50 states, the platform provides quotes from top carriers via VIU by HUB, omnichannel insurance brokerage platform backed by one of the largest personal insurance brokers, Hub InternationalCustomers can shop for coverage on autos, RVs, motorcycles, and even homes.An OEM parts coverage option helps protect vehicle value by using only Honda and Acura Genuine Parts.Future plans include full integration into Honda and Acura's digital sales ecosystem.Petar Vucurevic, President of American Honda Insurance Solutions: “Insurance is a key touchpoint in the vehicle ownership journey... promoting safer driving and increased peace of mind.”Walmart is doubling down on its AI transformation with the rollout of Sparky, a next-gen digital shopping agent set to replace traditional search. The move marks the retail giant's most aggressive bet yet on an AI-first future.Sparky will handle everything from grocery reorders to furnishing entire apartments based on budget and preferences.The new interface will be multimodal—supporting voice, images, and video—to mirror natural human shopping behaviors and eliminate the need for keyword searches.Walmart's AI framework includes four agents: Sparky (customers), Marty (suppliers/advertisers), an associate agent, and a developer agent.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

In this segment on men's mental health, Russell Murchison, Charles Gilbert and David Thomas open up about what males are taught while growing up about emotions and manhood. And how those early lessons during childhood can shape a man's ability to express emotional needs as an adult. From being taught to 'tough it out,' to feeling misunderstood by the women in men's lives, my guests share what gets in the way. This is the third segment of the larger conversation held with my guests.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_YDP0NyYFiM  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lxex48fQilk #mensmentalhealth #mensmentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #god #godislove #spirituality #retirement

In this full-length conversation, I sit down with three men from different generations to talk about what too often goes unsaid — the emotional battles men carry behind the scenes. Russell Murchison, Charles Gilbert and David Thomas speak candidly about the pressure to stay strong, the pain of grief and identity loss, and why being vulnerable can feel so risky. As Black men, they also reflect on the added layers of cultural conditioning and societal expectations; and how those experiences can shape the way Black men navigate emotion, relationships, and healing. In my introduction, I talk about how — when we look beyond cultural differences and the histories we carry — many of us share the same deep desire: to be seen, understood, and free to be ourselves. Whether you've followed the series or are tuning in for the first time, this episode offers a raw and heartfelt look at what strength in men really means. #mensmentalhealth #godislove #mentalhealthmatters #spirituality #mensperspective #menspeak #mensmentalhealth
