Had an AHA or Insight? Share it:What happens when life strips away everything — your home, your art, your sense of self?In this episode of The Business Growth Architect Show: Founders of the Future, I speak with Christopher Wesley, a storyteller and transformation coach who lost everything in the Altadena fire. But instead of letting tragedy define him, he used it to rebuild his identity and purpose from the ground up. If you have had an event where you felt as if your world was falling apart, this conversation will give you ideas to reframe what “loss” really means—and how to find freedom in what's left. Christopher shares his storytelling blueprint and how he is transforming this catastrophe into his future opportunity.

In this powerful episode of Case Studies, Casey sits down with Jon Adams, a partner in a billion-dollar wealth management firm, for one of the most heartfelt and faith-filled conversations in the series. Jon opens up about growing up in his grandfather's truck, learning grit and integrity on the family sod farm, and discovering entrepreneurship through pure initiative long before he built a career in finance.The heart of this conversation centers on unimaginable loss. At age 34, Jon's wife, Janelle, passed away suddenly, leaving him to raise four young children alone. What follows is a story of grace and divine timing; of friends and family who showed up when he could not stand on his own, and of faith that deepened through tragedy. Jon shares sacred experiences that reshaped his understanding of God's presence, the power of community, and the beauty of second chances when he later met and married singer-songwriter Callie Reed.This is an episode about faith in the dark, love that endures, and the quiet miracles that follow when you keep walking toward the light.00:00 | Meeting Jon & the Adams brothers02:31 | Farm-raised grit & the first land flip08:42 | Hustle play: Jazz floor seats → warm leads18:50 | Radical honesty in wealth management22:30 | Partners, roles, and why differences work23:04 | High-school best friends to marriage (Jenelle)26:29 | Early marriage, duplex, and the first job29:12 | Hospital shock: ITP diagnosis & teeter-totter care33:10 | The hardest call: intubation & final goodbyes44:04 | “I'm here to talk to Jon”: stake conference mercy56:04 | The song, Callie Reed, and a second chance59:45 | “Faith in His timing” (sometimes it means now)01:16:43 | Lessons on grief, God, growth, and becoming Hosted on Acast.

What followed was a decade-long battle with grief, addiction, and identity, hidden behind a flawless exterior of success and discipline.Nathan shares how he went from broken and lost, drowning in pain and denial, to rebuilding his life through faith, purpose, and service.

We would love to hear from you! Text us any feedback. What happens when you lose everything but discover what truly matters? In this deeply moving conversation, Andrea Hryszczuk shares the harrowing yet hope-filled story of watching her family home burn completely to the ground in May 2020.The fire began unexpectedly in their garage during pandemic lockdown, with the family unaware for crucial minutes as flames engulfed their truck and spread toward the house. Andrea recounts the terrifying moments of uncertainty, not knowing if everyone had escaped safely, followed by overwhelming joy when the family reunited on their front lawn. While firefighters battled the blaze that would ultimately destroy their home entirely, the Hryszczuk's experienced a profound shift in perspective – they were alive, they were together, and nothing else mattered.What followed was nothing short of extraordinary. Despite losing all identification, credit cards, photographs, and possessions, the family witnessed God's provision in remarkable ways. A neighbor offered their vacant house before they even needed to ask. Envelopes of cash miraculously survived the inferno when their fireproof safe did not. Small treasures emerged from the ashes that felt like personal messages – a singed paper reading "To God be the glory" and a necklace with the words "Where your treasure is, your heart will be also."Andrea reveals the intentional strategies she and her husband employed to guide their family through trauma – what she calls "good defense and good offense." They refused to let their minds dwell on devastating what-ifs, instead taking those thoughts captive and deliberately practicing gratitude at every turn. When painful losses surfaced, they attached new, hope-filled meanings: "We're alive to make new memories" became their response to losing irreplaceable family photos.Five years later, having rebuilt on the same property, Andrea's definition of home has been forever transformed. "Home is just where my family is. It's not a building anymore," she explains. The experience deepened her longing for her eternal home while strengthening her conviction that God remains sovereign and good regardless of circumstances.Whether you're navigating your own tragedy or simply seeking perspective on what truly matters, this conversation will challenge your thinking about possessions, faith, and finding beauty in life's most devastating moments. As Andrea reminds us, "He brings beauty always through the ashes – sometimes in the physical realm, but always in the spiritual realm."Episode 10 - Preserving Precious Memories https://www.buzzsprout.com/admin/2232091/episodes/14598639-10-streamline-your-life-series-week-2-organizing-your-photos-and-memorabilia-creating-a-legacy-of-cherished-memories-with-sheri-meissnerJOIN ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA:Follow Along @ - https://www.instagram.com/nikkicronksmith/

Lori Smith never imagined she'd find herself sitting alone in a dark parking lot, tears streaming down her face, begging God for direction after her world collapsed. As publisher and executive editor of Life Media Group—a thriving media company with eight newspapers across Florida's Emerald Coast—Lori now radiates confidence and purpose. But the road to her current success required navigating through extraordinary pain."I lost everything," Lori reveals in this raw, emotional conversation with host Valerie Peterson. Her story unfolds as she details facing a painful divorce after a decade of trying to save her marriage, mourning her mother's death, enduring financial devastation, and relocating to a community where she knew no one—all simultaneously. The image of Lori crying in her car before work, during lunch breaks, and on the drive home paints a vivid picture of someone in pure survival mode.The turning point came through divine intervention when, during her darkest moment, she heard God audibly release her from her marriage—a direction that contradicted everything she believed about divorce. This moment of clarity didn't eliminate her suffering but provided the permission she needed to move forward. Throughout this valley, Lori clung to specific worship songs that articulated her pain when she couldn't find words to pray, and to the promise that faith "the size of a mustard seed" was enough to sustain her.What makes Lori's testimony particularly powerful is her transformation from brokenness to becoming what she calls a "marketplace minister"—someone who brings Christ's presence into professional settings without formal ministry credentials. Now leading a successful media company, she prays with clients, speaks hope into business relationships, and uses her platform to influence others for Christ. Her journey proves that our darkest moments don't define us—they can become the very experiences God uses to equip us for greater impact and purpose.Ready to experience hope in your own journey? Listen to Lori's full testimony and discover how faith can sustain you through your darkest valleys.

Against the backdrop of industry upheaval and the rise of AI, Nicholas Lam joins hosts Ava Benjamin Shorr and David Kruta to explore what it means to future-proof creativity. Lam critiques performative diversity initiatives, warns against chasing trends, and makes a case for human, low-fi storytelling as the antidote to algorithmic content. Taking a personal turn, Lam recounts losing his home in the Los Angeles fires of January 2025, and shares how the filmmaking community rallied to support him, reshaping his priorities and reinforcing the importance of showing up for others. That experience reframes his view of work, stripping away the false urgency of the industry and grounding him in relationships over accolades.Nicholas Lam's Instagram | WebsiteAva Benjamin Shorr's Instagram | WebsiteDavid Kruta's Instagram | WebsiteThis episode is sponsored by Fujifilm, Sandisk and TCP Insurance.

This is a first for me - a part 2. If you haven't heard my first interview with Riordan Maynard, the businessman who got sent to maximum security prison in the US for 6 years, go back and listen now! The reaction from that first episode was astonishing so we simply had to get him back in to answer all those burning questions you all had sent in…We talk about the lasting impact of prison on his confidence, his identity, and most of all, his family. And of course, dive into the ins and outs of what prison in the states is really like.We cover:•⁠ ⁠The PTSD he now lives with after leaving jail•⁠ ⁠The unexpected friendships (and business offers) he made in prison (including an offer to be the European Cocaine King!!)•⁠ ⁠Mental resilience he developed inside•⁠ ⁠The impact of his time away on his kids and wife•⁠ ⁠How he's rebuilding his life nowThis is a conversation about second chances and what it really takes to rebuild your life after everything has fallen apart. I admire Riordan's honesty and sheer resilience more than ever - and I think you'll understand why.If you're interested in finding out more about Riordan's work, you can head to https://www.mindfort.co/If you enjoyed the show, you can also follow usInstagram - www.instagram.com/greatcompanypodcastTikTok - www.tiktok.com/@greatcompanypodcastAnd if you've got thoughts, questions and comments, you can email us at greatcompany@jampotproductions.co.uk--THE CREDITSExec Producer: Jemima RathboneProducer: Helen BurkeEditor: Dan KingAssistant Producer: Emily D'SouzaVideo: Jake JiSocial Media: Laura CoughlanGreat Company is an original podcast from JamPot Hosted on Acast.

When life knocks the wind out of you, how do you find your way back to yourself?In this episode of Asking for a Friend, we sit down with Cristina Simmons—a mother, occupational therapist, Faster Way coach, and now author of Eat Your Feelings. Her journey reads like a survival manual for the modern woman: deep grief, childhood trauma, infidelity, chronic stress, raising adopted twins with prenatal drug exposure, and navigating the complexities of raising a child with autism.But Cristina didn't just survive—she rebuilt. Piece by piece.After years of numbing pain with food, ignoring the signals from her body, and losing her sense of self, Cristina hit a breaking point. What followed was a radical shift toward healing—physically, emotionally, and spiritually. She discovered the transformative power of functional fitness, nervous system regulation, and true community support.This episode is a lifeline for women stuck in survival mode—especially in midlife, when the emotional backlog can no longer be ignored. Cristina offers practical tools rooted in her EAT method (Educate, Accept, Transform) to help you move through grief, overwhelm, and identity loss with compassion and clarity.If you've ever wondered, “Is this all there is?” or felt like you're disappearing under the weight of caregiving, trauma, or unmet expectations, Cristina's story will meet you where you are—and light the way forward.

We all chase something—success, money, status—believing it will make us whole. I chased those things too. And I had them. I had everything. Until one day… I didn't. What followed was the hardest season of my life. But it was also the most important. In my latest video, I share the raw, unfiltered story of how losing everything that mattered—my marriage, my identity, my sense of control—led me to the one thing I had ignored for far too long: God. This isn't just a story about failure. It's about rediscovery. Faith. Purpose. And becoming who you were meant to be. If you're feeling stuck, empty, or like something's missing—even if everything on paper looks perfect—this video might speak to your soul. Let it remind you: Even in the darkest moments, God is still good.

Anxiety can overwhelm us, especially in times of deep loss. How do we fight our fears of the future when so much has already gone wrong?

This woman is absolutely incredible. Lindsey Graham - The Patriot Barbie - is back for her third time on ALL IN. That makes her my only three-time guest ever. And there's a damn good reason for that. Two years ago Lindsey was running a successful salon in Oregon with 25 stylists. Living her dream. Building her business. Then she made one decision that changed everything. She reopened during the lockdowns. Defied the mandates. Stood up for what she believed was right. The government came after her with everything they had. Cancel culture destroyed her career. She lost her entire business. Everything she'd built for 15 years. Gone. But here's what's incredible about this story. She didn't break. She didn't back down. She didn't apologize.Connect:Connect with Rick: https://linktr.ee/mrrickjordanConnect with Lindsey: https://patriotbarbie.com/ Subscribe & Review to ALL IN with Rick Jordan on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/RickJordanALLINAbout Lindsey: Lindsey is a business owner who opened her salon against the government-mandated closure. We made national news and are fighting the government, suing for the violation of our rights and harassment.

In today's episode, I reflect on the moments that reshaped my life, from losing everything in bankruptcy to rebuilding with a new perspective. I share the pivotal lesson my wife taught me about real change, the mindset shift that made loss easier to navigate, and why the people we surround ourselves with shape more than just our success. I also answer audience questions on personal growth, resilience, and redefining self-worth beyond financial achievements. Whether it's navigating setbacks, strengthening relationships, or staying committed to core values, this conversation is about embracing the behaviors that move us toward the life we truly want.
