Do you ever feel like you need to be funny to be liked? How do you handle pressure to always “perform” for others? In this candid, hilarious, and unexpectedly moving episode of On Purpose, Jay sits down with comedian, actor, and podcast superstar Bert Kreischer—famously known for his shirtless stand-up and his ability to keep audiences laughing nonstop. This conversation goes way beyond the jokes as Jay and Bert dive deep into the real stories behind the spotlight, revealing the layers of vulnerability, self-doubt, and emotional growth that make Bert more than just a party-loving comic. Bert shares what it was like growing up with a tough, old-school dad who believed in powering through pain and never showing weakness. That mentality helped shape Bert’s work ethic but also left him carrying emotional weight for years. In one of the most touching moments of the episode, Bert shares how a simple, unexpected conversation with his dad, while they were both high on edibles, changed everything, helping them finally see each other clearly and connect on a deeper level. With Jay’s thoughtful guidance, they unpack Bert’s real-life struggles with anxiety, chasing approval, and feeling like you’re never enough, things so many of us can relate to. Bert is refreshingly honest about his mental health, his parenting ups and downs, and what it's like trying to stay grounded while raising two sharp, hilarious daughters who aren’t afraid to call him out. In this interview, you'll learn: How to Stay Humble While Chasing Big Dreams How to Raise Kids Who Keep You Grounded How to Keep Showing Up Even When It's Hard How to Use Vulnerability as a Superpower How to Manage Anxiety Without Shame How to Turn Criticism into Growth How to Stay Grateful Through Every Stage of Success This episode is full of laughs, a few tear-jerking moments, and plenty of insight into what it really means to show up, be yourself, and keep going, even when it’s hard.

What if the grief you've tucked away is the very place where healing, purpose, and restoration are waiting to meet you? In this deeply personal conversation, Natalie Born sits down with author and speaker Tara Nicole Dorsey to talk about grief, healing, and the faith journey that followed the stillbirth of her daughter Phoebe. Tara shares how journaling became her tool for healing, leading to the creation of her book Blessed to Bear Fruit: Devotions for the Mom in Waiting. With honesty and hope, she unpacks the emotional and spiritual challenges of loss, the layered grief couples experience, and how God used her pain to reach and support other women.

As parents we can all agree on a few things.   That we want our kids to be healthy and happy.   That eating nutritious food is an important part of being healthy. That putting kids and healthy food together can be difficult! In this episode we are going to talk about why helping our kids eat healthy food, even though it can be difficult, is important, is worth doing, and in fact can be done. Ryan takes the lead to interview me and asks me: Why is it important for kids to eat healthy food? How early should you start? How would you start doing this with kids who aren't used to it?  How would you handle “picky eaters”? How do you handle it when you are at a restaurant, event, or someone else's home? What would you say to someone who feels overwhelmed?  Our journey to a whole-food diet wasn't all sunshine and rainbows.  Just wait - you'll hear some stories!     I know I can't control what choices my kids will make when they are no longer with me.  But I know that they have the knowledge, the skills and the experience they need to make healthy choices if they want to. I also can't entirely control my kids' health outcomes.  But I want to be able to say that I did my very best with the knowledge that I had.   In this episode we are sharing how we help our kids eat healthy food.
