Hey, fellow lushes! Join us for an unforgettable conversation with country music sensation D'Lee as she opens up about life, music, and everything in between. At 55, D'Lee is embracing her age and taking risks like never before. We dive into the story behind her latest album, 55, exploring how each song reflects her personal journey and growth as an artist.

From the struggles and triumphs of songwriting to the vulnerability that comes with putting herself out there, D'Lee gets real about the process and the emotions that fuel her music. She talks about her childhood memories of Evel Knievel, the importance of embracing change, and the way she's living out her childhood dreams in ways she never imagined. In this episode, we get a glimpse into D'Lee's world as she prepares for her upcoming release, reflects on the impact of her music, and looks ahead to the future.

Episode Description We all face life-changing decisions that leave us feeling like we're about to strap ourselves into a rocket and shoot across a canyon. In this engaging episode, Scott Smith tackles the universal fear of change and introduces a powerful concept to help you navigate those transitions with confidence. Scott shares his personal realization about looming life changes and unpacks why even positive, well-justified decisions can still feel terrifying. Drawing from his years of coaching experience, he introduces the concept of "transitional identity"—a practical approach to bridge the gap between your current self and your future self. Discover why the uncomfortable feeling in your gut is actually a natural response to change and learn how to create a "peaceful base" that allows you to move forward with less fear. This episode offers a refreshing perspective on transformation that will help you embrace change rather than avoid it. Featured Story Scott opens with a humorous personal anecdote about his wife suddenly listening to his podcast after years of not doing so, highlighting how even small changes in our relationships can feel disruptive. This leads into his reflection on waking up with the realization that life-changing events were looming in his future, creating a perfect segue into discussing how we all face moments of significant transition that can feel as dramatic as Evel Knievel's infamous attempt to jump the Snake River Canyon. Key Takeaways Life is fundamentally about getting from where you are today to where you want to go tomorrow We view ourselves through our identity, which makes changing feel threatening The future feels fictional while our current life feels real, making apprehension a natural response Creating a "transitional identity" helps bridge the gap between your current and future self Decision fatigue can be fixed by gaining full clarity about your direction Life-changing decisions feel intimidating regardless of how exciting or justified they are The transformation from what you have now to what you want is what drives personal growth Building a "peaceful base" for today creates a foundation for tomorrow's changes Memorable Quotes "Life is all about getting from where you are today to where you want to go tomorrow." "It's the transformation from what you have now to what you want that excites growth in your lives." "As your future becomes real, your transitional identity transitions. You leave what's behind you and go to the future." Scott's Three-Step Approach Accept your current identity: Acknowledge who you are right now without judgment, creating what Scott calls a "peaceful base" as your foundation. Create your transitional identity: Develop a bridge identity that exists between who you are now and who you're becoming (e.g., "I've always been a hometown person, but now I'm learning to become a citizen of the world"). Build a bridge to your future self: Focus on the transition process rather than the gap between where you are and where you want to be, allowing your identity to gradually shift as your future becomes real.

The Past Our Prime podcast is heading into season 2 but before we look back to the future lets look ahead to the past. There were plenty of great stories in sports from 1974 starting with the Miami Dolphins repeating as Super Bowl champions behind SB MVP Larry Csonka who joined us for our 3rd episode. A week later, the UCLA Bruins 88-game winning streak ended at the hands of Notre Dame and former Bruins team captain and later their head coach Larry Farmer joined us to talk about that fateful day before joining us a 2nd time when his friend and teammate Bill Walton died suddenly this past May. And from there, we just took off... in April of 1974, Hank Aaron set the all-time record for Home Runs by hitting one out in Atlanta. That ball was caught by his teammate, Tom House who joined us to talk about Henry, and a great story about a no-hitter by Nolan Ryan when he was the pitching coach for the Rangers. Jenny Fulle became the first girl to play Little League, Johnny Rutherford won the Indy 500, Hall of Fame goaltender Bernie Parent led the Flyers to a Cup and Boston Globe writer Bob Ryan joined us for one of three times to talk about the Celtics winning it all in '74. Mike Eruzione and the Miracle on Ice. Ali beats Frazier and Foreman. Tommy John has surgery. The Oakland A's make it 3 straight. Jimmy Connors is #1 in the world and engaged to Chrissy Evert. Jennifer Chandler and John Kinsella both win gold medals. Evel Knievel is jumping over any and everything. JK MccKay and Anthony Davis are leading USC to a national title and Rocky Bleier returns from Vietnam to win the first of 4 Super Bowls with the Steelers. It was an amazing year in sports 50 years ago and we cover it from start to finish with the help of Curry Kirkpatrick and Hall of Famers Joe Delamielleure, Rick Barry and Nancy Lieberman who caps off the year talking about her friend and mentor Muhammad Ali, the 1974 Sportsman of the Year.

There may not have been a more famous person in sports entertainment in the 70's than Evel Knievel. His motorcycle jumps were legendary... both the successful ones and the not so successful ones. And in the summer of '74, Evel was on the cover of Sports Illustrated about to trade in his bike for a rocket ship... the Sky-Cycle... so that he could jump the Snake River. It too was not successful, but the attempt just increased Knievel's status with his fans... especially young boys. One of those boys was a kid growing up in the South by the name of Bubba Blackwell, who, like millions of others, idolized Knievel. But Bubba wasn't like millions of others... No, he was one in a million. And when it came to making jumps on a motorcycle, Bubba was second to none. And that includes his friend, Evel Knievel. Bubba would go on to break many of the icon's records and is best known for breaking Evel Knievel's jump record for buses using a Harley-Davidson XR-750 flat-track racing motorcycle. But when your job title is daredevil, Bubba would be the first to tell you that means sometimes you're going to bite off more than you can chew and that was the case on the 4th of July, 2001 in Del Mar, CA. Blackwell's attempt to jump 22 cars ended in a spectacular crash that almost killed the showman. Bubba went into a coma and broke 19 bones but survived... got healthy... and continued to test the limits. Now 57 years old, the fearless rider looks back on a career that saw him eclipse his idol's record jumps, talks about his greatest shows, and his worst moments, and how he got to know one of the most famous persons in the world: Evel Knievel...

My family is on vacation this week, and in honor of family trips gone wrong, here's a little summer travel excerpt from Life is Messy, God is Good:   I appreciate how Home Alone completely lowered the bar on family travel expectations after the parents left Kevin at home TWICE. Not to mention that biblically speaking, Jesus' parents lost Him for more than three days while returning home from Jerusalem.   I'm encouraged that if Joseph and Mary had a parenting fail and lost the Messiah, I can calm the heck down about the Colorado trip where we lost all of our groceries (and most of our hanging clothes) out the back of our car in the middle of the Breckenridge roundabout. And then several days later, my husband went all Evel Knievel off a bike jump, which landed him in the ER with broken ribs and a punctured lung (all of which I weirdly got on video in slow motion).    Good memories, that trip, but may it never be called a vacation.  As much as I love a good family trip, it's DEFINITELY not a vacation when the kids are involved. (Oh, and if you want to see the cringy bike accident video, follow me on Instagram and shoot me a DM.)   But I digress.    On today's show we're talking with Molly Stillman about why laughter matters.
