What does choosing joy really mean when you’re living through pain, pressure, or exhaustion? In this deeply personal solo episode, Choosing Joy host Deborah Joy Winans Williams sits down—not as an actress or celebrity, but as herself—to answer your questions, share her heart, and reflect on what joy looks like when it’s uncomfortable, spiritual, and hard-won. Deborah opens up about motherhood, mental health, faith, grief, self-worth, and how she learned (and is still learning) to choose joy daily—not just on stage, but in real life. From the lessons of her Winans family legacy to her girls' trip epiphany with Merle Dandridge to the quiet prayers that sustain her, this episode is a soulful, grounding invitation to go deeper. Whether you’re a woman of faith, an artist in progress, a mother in motion, or just someone trying to pour from a not-so-full cup—Deborah’s raw honesty and wisdom remind us that joy isn’t a mood... it’s a decision.

So many Christians believe that money is evil, when in reality the Bible makes it clear that the love of money is the root of all evil. That's a big difference! This truth is especially important to understand, because real wealth is defined by God, not by us. And based on what we learn from the book of Proverbs, God's definition of wealth might be something you've never even heard before. Get ready for what is one of the most revolutionary principles as it relates to the family enterprise!

Today we welcome Tim Metcalf, a Lafayette entrepreneur whose name is tied to some of Acadiana's most beloved establishments. Owner of Deano's Pizza, Prejean's Restaurant, and Marcello Wine Market, along with ventures in real estate, storage, and assisted living, Tim has built his life around preserving local traditions while bringing fresh ideas to our community. A Family Legacy in Restaurants Tim's entrepreneurial roots trace back to his father, who left behind a thriving restaurant career in California where his pizzeria drew in celebrities and locals alike. Fess Parker and Steve McQueen were regulars as they could hang out in the days before paparazzi. “He left very successful restaurants in California just because he didn't like the political, sociological climate. He was a country boy, an Idaho potato farmer, and the fast lifestyle of California didn't sit well with him.” A Korean War veteran, his father moved the family to Lafayette in 1970, opening Deano's in 1971. "Lafayette was booming. Oilfield, oil and gas. You know, he just didn't come to Lafayette on a whim. He read entrepreneurial magazines saying how it was one of the fastest growing cities in the country at the time," says Tim Metcalf. The original Deano's on Bertrand Drive was a simple pizzeria: counter service only, draft beer, pizza, a little green salad, and fountain drinks. “You wouldn't recognize it at all today… when Dad first started, there was no waitress. It was counter service. That didn't work in Lafayette. He soon changed it.” Deano's menu from the 1970s. Posted by Mona Bernhard on Lafayette Memories's Facebook Page. Tim, then ten years old, adapted quickly to Louisiana life after growing up in Santa Barbara. “They said, well, you can trade your surfboard for maybe a horse or a mini bike. I'm like, I'm okay. That sounds good to me.” He helped his dad around their rural property on Ridge Road and learned the value of hard work. "“We had pigs, sheep, rabbits, chickens… and a pretty big garden. Dad had a rototiller — an old Sears knuckle buster — and it was a lot of work, and it all fell on me.” As the youngest of four, Tim shouldered much of the responsibility for cutting grass, working the compost pit, and tending to the garden. “The older ones were in high school and had jobs. So from cutting the grass to road tilling, to manure, to compost, it all fell on me.” Looking back, he credits that hard work with shaping his character. “It taught me some really solid work ethic. I was never afraid of work, and still I'm not.” By the 1980s, Tim had taken over the reins of Deano's. Recognizing the need to adapt, Tim expanded both the hours and the menu. “When I got aboard, we started lunches and then we started other food and expanding the menu. 1983–84 — we had to do something else.” His biggest shift was weaving Acadiana's food culture into the pizza kitchen. “That was an awakening — to start taking the Cajun food, the great food that we have in this area, and incorporating it into our pizzas and our menu. Sausages, boudin, shrimp.” Photo by Paul Kieu for the Advertiser Expansion and Adaptation Tim later partnered with his son to open a South Lafayette Deano's, which quickly became a success. “My son and I have this great working relationship.” When COVID hit, they pivoted to selling pizzas and ranch dressing in grocery stores, personally delivering orders across Acadiana. “We kept our whole staff busy. We didn't have to lay anybody off.” That resilience fueled further growth. When the Guilbeau family approached him about Prejean's, Tim stepped in. “I wanted to keep it as pure and original as possible… I wanted to make it the spot in Carencro for the locals to hang out.” Prejean's: Preserving a Cajun Landmark The opportunity to purchase Prejean's came unexpectedly. “I had a good customer that goes, hey, you know Bob Guilbeau? He wants to talk to you about Prejean's. Next thing I know,

Small Wineries Under Pressure: On today's AgNet News Hour, the Ag Meter hit the road for an on-location interview at Ziveli Winery, tucked between Kerman and Fresno. Host Nick Papagni spoke with John and CalebCaleb Caleb, who shared their family's rich Croatian winemaking roots, the challenges of keeping small wineries afloat, and what it takes to market wine in a rapidly changing industry. A Family Legacy in Wine John Nale explained how his grandparents immigrated from Croatia in 1928, eventually settling in the Central Valley and planting vines that would lay the foundation for generations of winemaking. Their winery today blends that family heritage with a modern vision for community, offering weddings, events, and tastings in a beautifully restored barn. “Every year we do a little project, and this is what we get,” John said, noting the pride in carrying on the tradition. Struggles Facing Small Wineries The Nales were candid about the headwinds California wineries face. Declining wine sales, high labor and equipment costs, and rising regulations have left many operations in the red. “There might be three or four wineries that are making any money,” John admitted. The family has been forced to take on off-farm jobs to make ends meet, with John warning that small wineries often need 1,000 acres and no debt to stay sustainable. Caleb added that younger consumers often see wine as intimidating, preferring seltzers, cocktails, or sugary alternatives like Stella Rosa. He emphasized the importance of educating new wine drinkers and offering sweeter, approachable wines to attract them. Wine slushies and canned wines may not appeal to traditionalists, but they're entry points for a new generation. Competing in a Global Market The interview also highlighted how imports from Italy, Chile, and Mexico are undercutting California growers. John noted it can even be cheaper to ship frozen grapes from Chile than to buy locally in Lodi. “If that's true, we have a lot of issues,” he said. High costs and strict regulations, they argue, are pushing small farmers to the brink while international competitors thrive. Despite the challenges, the Nales remain committed to keeping their family winery open. “We decided a long time ago that we're going to keep farming until we're made to put a sign up for sale,” John said. For the full conversation with John and Caleb Nale of Ziveli Winery, listen to the AgNet News Hour.

How does a family legacy of church work influence younger generations? The Rev. Dr. Todd Allen Jenks (pastor of St. Paul Lutheran Church in Ames, IA) joins Andy for our Set Apart to Serve series to talk about his journey into the pastoral ministry, who had the greatest influence on his decision to consider and enter the pastoral ministry, the story of his family of church workers including his father and siblings, an endowed scholarship in honor and memory of his father at Concordia Seminary St. Louis, how a scholarship like this helps others pursue the pastoral ministry, and his encouragement for those who are considering entering the pastoral ministry. Christ's church will continue until He returns, and that church will continue to need church workers. Set Apart to Serve (SAS) is an initiative of the LCMS to recruit church workers. Together, we pray for workers for the Kingdom of God and encourage children to consider church work vocations. Here are three easy ways you can participate in SAS: 1.

The Bulletproof Dental Podcast Episode 405 HOSTS: Dr. Peter Boulden and Dr. Craig Spodak GUEST: Dr. Brian Harris DESCRIPTION In this engaging conversation, Dr. Brian Harris shares his journey from burnout to rediscovering his passion for dentistry. He emphasizes the importance of patient enrollment and how virtual consultations can enhance the patient experience. The discussion covers the psychology behind patient interactions, the role of technology in modern dentistry, and the significance of building trust and transparency with patients.

In this episode of The LoCo Experience podcast, I sat down with Reed Miller, the owner of Northern Colorado Insurance Agency (NCIA) and a LoCo Think Tank member!  Reed shared insights on the changing landscape of insurance, detailing how NCIA serves multiple areas for health insurance, including employee benefits, Medicare, and individual plans. We also delved into the various options for group plans, the principles guiding his business, and the significant growth NCIA has experienced since he purchased the business 2+ years ago.Reed spoke at length about his family legacy in business, starting with his grandfather's Coca-Cola distribution company and continuing with his father's agency's inception and growth before partnering with a larger insurance brokerage - which grew to become the dominant regional player over time.  Reed's desire to strike out on his own was fueled by a commitment to transparency and ethical business practices, seeking to align his financial incentives with those of his clients. This focus extends to his personal life as well, where he balances business responsibilities with spending quality time with his wife Hannah and their two young boys.Outside of work, Reed is actively involved in his community, notably serving as the President of Northern Colorado United for Youth, a volunteer organization that raises significant funds for local children's charities - and has their annual Suitcase Party coming up on August 15th! Despite the various responsibilities, he manages to find time for travel and personal interests. Stories from his travels, including a memorable and somewhat nerve-wracking visit to Israel, highlight his adventurous spirit and commitment to both personal and professional growth.  So please join me in enjoying my conversation with Reed Miller.  The LoCo Experience Podcast is sponsored by: Purpose Driven Wealth Thrivent: Learn more

Remember what it feels like to have something to prove? To show your family—and yourself—that age hasn't dimmed your spirit? That's exactly what drove me to orchestrate one of the most exhilarating motorcycle adventures of my life: purchasing Amtrak tickets for my family's westbound journey through the Rocky Mountains, then chasing that train along parallel country roads on my motorcycle while they watched and filmed from the windows.The pure joy on my eight-year-old grandson's face as he spotted his sixty-something "Papa" racing alongside their train was worth every mile. This wasn't just about showing off—it was about creating a memory that might someday become family legend, a story he'll hopefully tell his own children about his grandfather who truly embraced life's adventures.This experience perfectly captures what makes riding country roads so magical. Whether paved or dirt, these lesser-traveled paths offer a unique form of soul therapy you simply can't find on highways. The moment your tires hit loose gravel, time slows down. You're no longer just passing through a landscape; you're becoming part of it—breathing in pine-scented air, feeling the earth beneath your wheels, and experiencing a meditative connection to nature that washes away the stresses of modern life. Like John Denver's iconic "Country Roads," these journeys represent more than just physical travel; they're pathways to rediscovering joy, peace, and that essential spark that keeps us feeling alive regardless of our age. Why not take the road less traveled on your next ride? The memories you create just might last generations.

In this episode of The Spine Pod, hosts Courtney Schutze and Brady Riesgraf sit down with Dr. Christopher Yeung, the current President at the Desert Institute for Spine Care (DISC) in Phoenix, Arizona, a nationally recognized leader in endoscopic spine surgery and a driving force behind the shift toward outpatient, function-preserving procedures.     Dr. Yeung's approach to spine care blends innovation, mentorship, and generational legacy. As the son of Dr. Anthony Yeung, one of the earliest pioneers of endoscopic techniques in the U.S., Dr. Yeung was immersed in the world of minimally invasive spine surgery from an early age. His training under Dr. Robert Watkins IV, renowned for treating elite professional athletes, further shaped his philosophy of preserving function, reducing recovery time, and getting patients back to the activities they love.     Today, Dr. Yeung carries that mission forward as the spine surgeon for Arizona State University, the Arizona Cardinals, Arizona Diamondbacks, and a host of additional professional sports teams. His work with high-performing athletes continues to influence his broader practice, reinforcing the value of outpatient surgical care, early mobility, and long-term performance.     In this wide-ranging conversation, Dr. Yeung shares how combining endoscopic tools with a spine-focused ASC model is transforming both outcomes and the patient experience. He discusses the evolving expectations of active patients, the accelerating shift towards outcome-driven decisions, and why outpatient spine care is no longer just for athletes, it's for anyone who values function, mobility, and a faster recovery.     In this episode, you'll learn: • Why outpatient spine surgery is gaining traction across patient populations and what it takes to do it safely   • How Dr. Yeung's work with professional athletes shaped his thinking on recovery, function, and surgical decision-making   • How Dr. Yeung's father, Anthony Yeung, MD, pioneered endoscopic spine surgery in the U.S. and how Dr. Yeung has built upon that foundation over the past 20+ years   • The importance of motion preservation, function, and expectation-setting when preparing for spine surgery   • The variety of modern treatment options for patients struggling with chronic neck, leg and/or back pain     This conversation captures the mindset and momentum of one of the field's most forward-thinking MIS and endoscopic spine surgeons and offers a glimpse into the future of spine care.     Learn more about Dr. Yeung:   • DISC: https://www.sciatica.com/   • LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/christopher-yeung-01a10347/   • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/yeungspine?igsh=OWVtM2xwMGhuZHVk   • Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DesertInstituteforSpineCare     You can find The Spine Pod on all Podcast Streaming Platforms, including:   • YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheSpinePod   • Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0DBzWfVt1ExQE0qTjhOERa?si=EEBPwQgRQSujyZsaXnJagA   • Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-spine-pod/id1745442311   • Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/98fd41ad-75ee-4371-bb70-c5b274324a47/the-spine-pod?ref=dm_sh_kmfvSHB5iY109GDslhiJul22E   • iHeart Radio: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-the-spine-pod-174320414?cmp=ios_share&sc=ios_social_share&pr=false&autoplay=true     Follow The Spine Pod to learn more about the latest episodes and happenings in the world of motion preservation: ⁠   -Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?...   -Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thespinepod...   -TikTok: www.tiktok.com/@thespinepod      The information in this podcast is for educational and informational purposes only and is not intended as medical advice.

Singer Sid Sriram was born in southern India, but his family moved to Fremont when he was just a year old. His voice and his sound are the product of his family's legacy as carnatic traditional signers and of  a childhood in the Bay Area suburbs, listening to jazz and hip hop. Sriram has already achieved fame in India, his career expanded globally after singing for Grammy-Award winning composer A.R. Rahman, and he was recently featured in an NPR Tiny Desk Concert. He joins us in our studio to sing from his new album and talk about growing up Indian-American in the Fremont and what it's like to be more famous halfway across the world than where you went to high school.

Have you ever asked yourself: "Why does it feel like I'm the only one trying to improve our marriage?" "How do I break the destructive patterns I inherited from my own upbringing?" "What if true change in our relationship starts not with her, but with me?" If you're feeling alone in your journey, frustrated that your spouse isn't "on board," or simply tired from the grind of family life, this episode is a powerful beacon of hope. Today, Larry Hagner sits down with Gina Trimmer of Revitalized Womanhood for a raw, honest conversation about what it really takes to build strong marriages and families. The profound takeaway: Lasting change begins when both partners courageously own their personal growth, instead of trying to fix each other. Larry shares his own vulnerable journey—growing up without a consistent father figure, the deep pain it caused, and how that very experience led him to create The Dad Edge community. He speaks candidly about his struggles as a father, the pivotal moment he decided to break destructive generational cycles, and why "doing the work" is a never-ending commitment, not a quick fix. Gina Trimmer bring the invaluable perspective from the women's side, describing the magic that happens when men and women's growth communities work together. They reveal the truth that self-investment sometimes meets unexpected resistance—not just from society, but often from our own partners. But, as Gina Trimmer notes, change is ultimately contagious: When one person genuinely steps up, the other often follows. Become the best husband you can: https://bit.ly/deamarriageyoutube In this vital conversation, we dig into: The "Fix Each Other" Trap: Why trying to change your spouse is a dead end, and how focusing on your own growth ignites mutual transformation. Breaking Generational Cycles: Larry's personal journey of overcoming a fatherless upbringing to build a new legacy of intentional fatherhood. The Contagious Power of Personal Growth: Gina Trimmer reveal how one partner's commitment to self-improvement can inspire profound change in the other, even if there's initial resistance. The Magic of Parallel Growth Communities: How men's and women's self-improvement tribes can work together to strengthen individual partners and, by extension, the marriage itself. The Never-Ending Commitment: Why building a marriage and legacy worth leaving requires consistent investment in your personal development, not a one-time solution. This episode is a powerful reminder that building a marriage and legacy worth leaving requires facing hard truths, investing in your personal growth, and refusing to settle for "just fine." Here's what research and observation highlight about relational growth: Studies show that when one partner actively engages in personal growth, it leads to a 30% increase in the other partner's likelihood of pursuing self-improvement within 12 months. Couples who prioritize shared personal growth report a 25% higher level of marital satisfaction and resilience in facing challenges. Breaking destructive generational patterns through conscious effort can lead to a 40% improvement in family communication and emotional health across generations. www.thedadedge.com/533 www.thedadedge.com/mastermind
