What if the secret to longevity isn't luck—but how you show up? In this episode, I sit down with someone I've been wanting to interview for a long time—actor and now wellness entrepreneur, Josh Duhamel. You've seen him in everything from Transformers to Las Vegas to his latest hit Ransom Canyon. But this conversation goes beyond the screen. It's about the truth behind staying relevant, thriving in your 40s and 50s, and what it really means to lead—whether that's in your home, on set, or in your company. Josh opens up about the moments of self-doubt early in his career, the grind he still embraces, and how testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) helped him regain not just his energy, but his edge. We got real about aging, fatherhood, emotional strength, and the quiet confidence that comes from people believing in you—not just loving you. There's a big difference between the two. And whether you're leading a team or raising a family, that distinction can change everything. We also talk about masculinity in today's world—the evolving definition of what it means to be a man, and how important it is to stay grounded in spiritual connection. Josh talked about his circle of men who hold space for honest, vulnerable conversation and how that's shaped the way he leads and lives. He's not afraid to let people know he needs them, and that simple truth might just be the unlock for building loyalty, excellence, and connection in your team. This episode isn't just about fame or fitness—it's about the values that sustain you: humility, work ethic, emotional intelligence, and the courage to evolve. Josh proves that longevity in any field is earned through consistency, intention, and the willingness to stay coachable—even when you've “made it.” Key Takeaways: Why being emotionally accessible is a strength, not a weakness How testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) helped Josh reclaim his drive The importance of belief—how it's more powerful than love in leadership Creating a work environment where everyone feels needed and valued Josh's definition of masculinity and the role spiritual connection plays in his life How leaders like Steve Jobs and Mark Wahlberg modeled greatness through humility and discipline Don't just listen—share this one with someone who needs to remember what showing up with purpose really looks like.

Is Your Team Truly Committed—Or Just Chasing Goals? What separates teams that succeed from those that just survive? It's not talent. It's not resources. It's commitment. This week, I sit down with my great friend Jon Gordon, and we got real about what it takes to build a team that doesn't just perform, but thrives under pressure. Jon's new book, The Seven Commitments of a Great Team, is more than theory—it's the roadmap every leader, entrepreneur, and family builder needs. We talked about why goals aren't enough. Everybody's got goals. But not everybody is committed. Jon broke it down beautifully—commitment is about action. It's about the daily disciplines that align with your vision. Want to make a million dollars this year? That won't happen without commitments to how you show up, how you serve, and how you lead your team. “Commitment is going to cost you something,” Jon said. “You have to ask yourself—what are you willing to give, and what are you willing to give up?” One of the biggest takeaways? The power of connection and love on a team. That might sound soft, but it's not. Love is what makes great teams fight for each other. It's what transforms a locker room, a boardroom, or a household. “You'll never have commitment without connection,” Jon said—and he's right. If your team's not committed to each other, they won't be committed to the mission. And when adversity hits, that's when the cracks show. We also touched on something every leader needs to hear: emotional fatigue. Carrying the weight of your business, your team, your family—it gets heavy. If you lose your why, you lose your fire. “The crime isn't that the passion ran out—it's that you stayed around after it did,” Jon shared. That line stopped me in my tracks. Leaders, you've got to reignite your mission or risk slowly fading out. Key Takeaways: The difference between having goals and living with commitment Why devotion—not discipline—creates lasting change How prayer and purposeful rituals can unlock creative breakthroughs The role of connection and love in high-performance teams How to lead through adversity without losing your energy or edge This one hit home for me on a personal level, and I know it will for you too. Go grab The Seven Commitments of a Great Team. It's a game-changer. MAX OUT.  

Paul tells the church at Galatia, “Yall were running the race with all you had, exerting all the effort you could, but something happened and it has hindered your running.” What happened? Circumcision. It's hard to run when you've had a knife cut into private part! That is a lot of pain and it takes a little while to heal up! Paul uses two words in the Greek to explain what he means by “hinder” but we don't fully grasp it in the English translations. Check out this podcast to see what Paul means and ask. Yourself this question, “Am I giving my all for Jesus? For the kingdom? Or is something hindering me from fully serving him?

Your Greatest Superpower: The Skill Everyone Thinks They Have but Few Truly Master Most people believe they're good listeners—but are they really? Today, I'm unpacking one of the most underestimated yet transformative skills: the art of listening. And I'm not talking about just nodding your head or waiting for your turn to speak. I'm talking about truly hearing people, making them feel understood, and using this skill to deepen connections in every area of your life—from your business to your relationships. I share personal stories, including a revealing encounter with an entrepreneur who spent hours talking at me instead of with me. We'll break down why listening is not only about respect but also one of the most powerful tools for influence and impact. I'll give you actionable strategies—like asking clarifying questions, aligning your body language, and even using a simple follow-up text—to make sure people don't just hear you, but feel you long after the conversation ends. When you become an exceptional listener, people won't just like you—they'll trust you. And trust is the gateway to influence. Whether you're leading a team, raising a family, or simply building friendships, mastering this skill will set you apart. Key Takeaways: Why people respond to how you make them feel, not just what you say. The importance of asking for clarification to show you're truly present. How your body language, facial expressions, and even pauses speak louder than words. The power of acknowledgement statements to leave people feeling valued. A simple follow-up text strategy that can cement lasting connections.  Start listening in a way that transforms relationships and amplifies your influence. Because when people feel heard, they lean in, trust deeper, and follow your lead. Now let's get to work—Max Out!. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Lured Up Podcast 332 Record Date - 12/30/24 Publish Date - 1/3/25   2024 is a wrap and this has been an incredible year of Pokémon GO. We saw a slate of new mechanics and features along with an absolutely packed calendar of events. The development of the Community Ambassador program has brought players back outside. Was 2024 the perfect setup for the next 5 years of Pokémon GO? We think so!   We break down the close of the 2024 calendar with a recap of the last week of gameplay. With the events filling every week and weekend of the month, we dig into what makes an event feel worth it, and what could make it feel like filler. With the game asking more and more of its players, are we seeing Trainers decide to opt out of specific events, or does FOMO still have a solid grip on the player base.    As we roll into January, the stage is already set. With the quick New Years event and Charged Embers Hatch Day leading right into Fidough Fetch and Sprigatito Community Day. Combined with Max Mondays, Spotlight Hour and Raid Hour, hardcore Trainers will have their mettle tested if they want to be the best. We just aren't sure if Trainers are ready for that degree of commitment, when the game is continuously asking them for more time over more days.   We take a stroll down memory lane and look back at the different Seasons of 2024. It started with Timeless Travels and  has since brought us a constant flow of new features, Pokémon, events and mechanics. The GO Fest window was absolutely nuts this year, with Global being only one week after NYC. Since then, Wild Area and the release of DMAX/GMAX has fundamentally changed the way we all play. One thing is for certain, playing this game outside and with a group has never been better nor more accessible. Wild Area was definitely the closest to 2016 that this game has felt, and that is VERY promising for the future.   Elekid & Magby Hatch Day: https://bit.ly/LU331ChargedEmbers  New Years: https://bit.ly/LU331NewYears  January Content Update: https://bit.ly/LU331January  Fidough Fetch: https://bit.ly/LU331FidoughFetch  Sprigatito Community Day: https://bit.ly/LU331Sprigatito  Mega Gallade Raid Day: https://bit.ly/LU331Gallade  eMILY: https://bit.ly/LU332eMILy  Timeless Travels: https://bit.ly/LU332TimelessTralvels  Worlds of Wonder: https://bit.ly/LU332WorldsOfWonder  Shared Skies: https://bit.ly/LU332SharedSkies  Max Out: https://bit.ly/LU332MaxOut  Dual Destiny: https://bit.ly/LU332DualDestiny  LuredUp@PokemonProfessor.com     Voicemail and SMS: 732-835-8639    Use code FULLHEAL at https://tgacards.com/ for 10% off your order!   Support the show by bookmarking and shopping at TCGPlayer.com using this link - https://bit.ly/TCGPlayerAffiliate    Connect with us on multiple platforms! https://linktr.ee/PokemonProfessorNetwork    Hosts Ken Pescatore Adam Tuttle   Writer and Producer Ken Pescatore   Executive Producer  Xander   Show music provided by GameChops and licensed through Creative Commons   ▾ FOLLOW GAMECHOPS ▾ http://instagram.com/GameChops http://twitter.com/GameChops http://soundcloud.com/GameChops http://facebook.com/GameChops http://youtube.com/GameChops http://www.gamechops.com   Intro Music Lake Verity (Drum & Bass Remix)  Tetracase GameChops - Ultraball http://gamechops.com/ultraball/ https://soundcloud.com/tetracase  https://soundcloud.com/MegaFlare0   Break Music National Park Mikel & GameChops GameChops - Poké & Chill http://smarturl.it/pokechill https://twitter.com/mikel_beats   Outro Music Vast Poni Canyon CG5 & GlitchxCity (Future Bass Remix) GameChops - Ultraball http://gamechops.com/ultraball/  http://soundcloud.com/cg5-beats https://soundcloud.com/glitchxcity Pokémon And All Respective Names are Trademark and © of Nintendo 1996-2024 Pokémon GO is Trademark and © of Niantic, Inc.

The Max Battle System fundamentally changed the daily routines of countless Trainers, with deeper levels of engagement and strategy trickling their way into different mechanics like defending Gyms, trading, and walking Routes. Hats off to MAX OUT!   Dual Destiny is our next Season and it is hitting the ground running in December with a packed slate of content. We revisit the conversation of how demanding this game has become on our calendars, with more and more destination in game events. Pair that with nearly all events having a ticketed component, FOMO is sure to make an appearance at some point this Season.   December weekends are packed with small window events while over arching events span the weekdays. Trainers will have something to do every single weekend in December. Maintaining a game/life balance will be tested this month, and it will be a challenge for some to stave off the burnout. Is there ever a point where too much in game content is too much? We aren't sure but if there is a month to help us find out it will be this December.   Details on the Unova Tour have dropped which opens the door for a great conversation. We dig into how IRL Communities have more events than ever to build upon for their locals, and how even if a Community wants to host 3 events a YEAR, they have good reason to do so. We are confident that the Max Out Season was a catalyst for getting back to in-person play, and the future is bright for those Trainers that are willing to embrace it and get outside to play.   LuredUp@PokemonProfessor.com     Voicemail and SMS: 732-835-8639    Use code FULLHEAL at https://tgacards.com/ for 10% off your order!   Support the show by bookmarking and shopping at TCGPlayer.com using this link - https://bit.ly/TCGPlayerAffiliate    Connect with us on multiple platforms! https://linktr.ee/PokemonProfessorNetwork    Hosts Ken Pescatore Adam Tuttle   Writer and Producer Ken Pescatore   Executive Producer  Xander   Show music provided by GameChops and licensed through Creative Commons   ▾ FOLLOW GAMECHOPS ▾ http://instagram.com/GameChops http://twitter.com/GameChops http://soundcloud.com/GameChops http://facebook.com/GameChops http://youtube.com/GameChops http://www.gamechops.com   Intro Music Lake Verity (Drum & Bass Remix)  Tetracase GameChops - Ultraball http://gamechops.com/ultraball/ https://soundcloud.com/tetracase  https://soundcloud.com/MegaFlare0   Break Music National Park Mikel & GameChops GameChops - Poké & Chill http://smarturl.it/pokechill https://twitter.com/mikel_beats   Outro Music Vast Poni Canyon CG5 & GlitchxCity (Future Bass Remix) GameChops - Ultraball http://gamechops.com/ultraball/  http://soundcloud.com/cg5-beats https://soundcloud.com/glitchxcity Pokémon And All Respective Names are Trademark and © of Nintendo 1996-2024 Pokémon GO is Trademark and © of Niantic, Inc.

Lured Up Podcast 329 Record Date - 11/20/24 Publish Date - 11/22/24   Wild Area Global is almost here and we have plenty to unpack and dig into. Hopefully everyone in your community has done plenty of Drilbur in preparation of GMAX Toxtricity, and is managing their Max Particles correctly to balance powering one or two of them up. We will get you prepped and ready to go for Wild Area Global, and will touch on some of the issues that Trainers are facing this week.    Into the wild put Toxel behind 10km eggs but the Community seems pretty chill about it, knowing that Toxtricity is just on the horizon. An issue with the event's Raid ticket however, has Trainers calling Niantic out for some misleading advertising. With a quiet update to the blog, Niantic has flipped on how bonus Raid passes were to be included with the ticket, causing some unrest in the Community. With their credibility being under a microscope, future events that include bonus Raid passes may require some additional explaining on what exactly is included.   We had a few quality of life updates this week starting with increased Pokémon and item storage, which is always welcomed before a major event. Pair that with a Black Friday PokéCoin sale, and Trainers have some pretty good incentive to spend up before the weekend.The big news of the week however was the addition of Raid Attendance being visible from the Friends List, with the ability to jump directly into a Remote Raid without an invite. (NOTE - Since the time of this recording we have learned that this is a temporary test that is scheduled to end after the Wild Area Global event).   WIth the Max Out Season coming to a close, it is fair to say that this has been one of the most action packed Seasons to date. With new visuals, mechanics, and ways to play the game, it has been moving at a fast pace since its first day. The Max Out finale will keep the pressure on, bringing new Pokémon, but also additional tickets to purchase, which also puts the pressure on Trainer's wallets.   Simply Groundbreaking: https://bit.ly/LU327Groundbreaking  Into The Wild: https://bit.ly/LU328IntoTheWild  Niantic Boo Boo: https://bit.ly/LU329BooBoo  Wild Area Global: https://bit.ly/LU329Global  Increased Storage: https://bit.ly/LU329Storage  Black Friday Sale: https://bit.ly/LU329BlackFriday  Raid Attendance QoL: https://bit.ly/LU329RaidAttendance  Trainers Love It: https://bit.ly/LU329FleeceKing  Trainers Hate It: https://bit.ly/LU329MrAvalanche  Max Out Finale: https://bit.ly/LU329Finale  LuredUp@PokemonProfessor.com     Voicemail and SMS: 732-835-8639    Use code FULLHEAL at https://tgacards.com/ for 10% off your order!   Support the show by bookmarking and shopping at TCGPlayer.com using this link - https://bit.ly/TCGPlayerAffiliate    Connect with us on multiple platforms! https://linktr.ee/PokemonProfessorNetwork    Hosts Ken Pescatore Adam Tuttle   Writer and Producer Ken Pescatore   Executive Producer  Xander   Show music provided by GameChops and licensed through Creative Commons   ▾ FOLLOW GAMECHOPS ▾ http://instagram.com/GameChops http://twitter.com/GameChops http://soundcloud.com/GameChops http://facebook.com/GameChops http://youtube.com/GameChops http://www.gamechops.com   Intro Music Lake Verity (Drum & Bass Remix)  Tetracase GameChops - Ultraball http://gamechops.com/ultraball/ https://soundcloud.com/tetracase  https://soundcloud.com/MegaFlare0   Break Music National Park Mikel & GameChops GameChops - Poké & Chill http://smarturl.it/pokechill https://twitter.com/mikel_beats   Outro Music Vast Poni Canyon CG5 & GlitchxCity (Future Bass Remix) GameChops - Ultraball http://gamechops.com/ultraball/  http://soundcloud.com/cg5-beats https://soundcloud.com/glitchxcity Pokémon And All Respective Names are Trademark and © of Nintendo 1996-2024 Pokémon GO is Trademark and © of Niantic, Inc.

If you could go back and give advice to your younger self, what would you say? That's the question I got recently from a young man at a live event, and it's one that hit me hard. I realized that I'd give up every dollar, every luxury, just to relive that energy, that drive. The truth? Right now is the youngest and most powerful you'll ever be again. Whether you're 20 or 53, there's no better time to start living fully, with focus and intention. One of the biggest lessons I wish I'd learned earlier? Only control what you can. So much of my life I spent trying to control outcomes, people's opinions, or circumstances. But focusing on what I couldn't change drained my energy and stole my peace. Imagine the freedom if you could just let go of that need to control every little detail and focus solely on what's in your hands—your actions, your attitude, your growth. That's where the power lies. In this episode, I dive into the importance of protecting your energy—what I call your vibrational frequency. The highest energy wins. The most successful people aren't just the most skilled or the smartest; they know how to show up with full presence, clarity, and focus when it matters most. To reach that level, you've got to stay aligned with your purpose and keep the distractions, doubts, and energy-draining worries out of your way. Finally, I talk about raising your standards, not just setting goals. Goals are great, but they come and go. Standards? They shape who you become. Decide what level you're truly comfortable with in every area of your life—relationships, finances, fitness—and watch how that “thermostat setting” drives you to either rise or cool back down. You will never exceed what you think you deserve, so set that thermostat high and surround yourself with people who challenge you to stay there. Key Takeaways: Focus only on what you can control, and let go of the rest. Protect your energy and show up with your best frequency. Set and maintain high standards—don't settle for less. Surround yourself with people who push you to elevate. This is your moment. Max out your life, kick some butt, and live so that, at the end, you're proud of every single choice. God bless, and go all in. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Lured Up Podcast 326 Record Date - 10/30/24 Publish Date - 11/1/24   It's been a big week in Pokémon GO with the release of Gigantamax Pokémon causing quite the stir. The Community sentiment over the mechanic is split, and it seems like community size plays a very important role. We start with a recap and work our way through the news, but the looming GMAX conversation is heard throughout the episode.   November is already here and we have our final month of Max Out in front of us. We will be having a very Raid heavy November as we work towards the Wild Area. With the return of many familiar Legendaries and a packed Raid Hour lineup, we will be very busy. The start of the month brings us GO Battle Weekend into the Harvest Festival. Could this be the calm before the storm?   The big news is the community sentiment over the release of GMAX> With large communities of 30+ having amazing activations, while others, are so down on the mechanic that they don't even try. We have plenty to say on the topic, including an interesting take from Adam.   We also announce our social experiment, the New Hampshire Rural Community Project. This 6 month initiative is designed to build an organized community of Trainers in rural Rochester, New Hampshire.

Before we jump into today's episode, I am personally inviting you to a once-in-a-lifetime, in-person event with me in my home. On December 9th, I'm opening my home for an exclusive event where I'll personally take you through my 12-step System, which has transformed thousands of lives. This is your invitation to MAXOUT in 2025. But make no mistake—this isn't for the timid. It's for those who want to crush the limits holding them back. There are limited spots left, so secure yours now at https://maxout2025.com. This week's episode is a taste of what you can expect from this amazing event... Romanticize Your Future: The Key to Unlocking Your Best Self Imagine if you could fall in love with your future. Not just daydream about it, but truly romanticize it in the same way you might cherish a loved one. When you care deeply about something, you protect it, nurture it, and give it the attention it deserves. Today, I'm challenging you to approach your future this way—to fall in love with the life you want to create. When you do, the way you show up in the world changes. You start seeing opportunities that were always there, but now they stand out, clear as day. The difference between winning and losing, success and failure, often comes down to a few pivotal moments. These moments define us, and being ready for them is critical. Life's big breaks don't come with a warning—they arrive when you least expect them. That's why preparation is everything. You can't rely on luck. Instead, you need to be consistently ready for those moments that could change your life. In this episode, I dive into how our thoughts shape our reality and how holding onto positive thoughts for just 15 seconds can shift your energy and set you up for success. I'll walk you through the concept of "thought stacking," where focusing on a thought for over a minute begins to reprogram your brain to notice opportunities that align with your goals. This isn't just about thinking happy thoughts—it's about creating a vibrational frequency that attracts the right people, opportunities, and circumstances into your life. I'm sharing strategies to interrupt negative patterns before they take root and how you can train your mind to stay focused on what you truly want, not what you fear. What if I told you that romanticizing your future could be the key to unlocking a life you can't wait to live? When you care for your future like you care for someone you love, you'll do whatever it takes to make it happen. You'll start seeing the world differently, and that's when life really starts to transform. So today, we're not just talking about setting goals or improving your mindset. We're talking about creating a future so compelling that you can't help but fall in love with it—and in the process, becoming the best version of yourself. Key Takeaways: The difference between success and failure often comes down to a handful of moments. Holding a thought for over 15 seconds can shift your vibrational frequency, attracting what you desire. Thought stacking can help you reprogram your mind to focus on positive outcomes. Romanticizing your future helps you care for it in a way that makes success inevitable. Interrupting negative thought patterns before they take root is essential to maintaining focus and control. So here's my challenge to you: Start romanticizing your future. Fall in love with the life you're building, treat it with the same care you'd give to something or someone you deeply cherish. Remember, you were born to do something great, and someone out there needs the best version of you. Let's make sure you're ready for that moment when it comes. And don't forget, to join me for “MAXOUT 2025" on December 9th for an exclusive event. This will be an intimate experience where you'll get to learn directly from me in my home.

Are You Ready to Rewrite the Story of Your Life? Today, I dive into one of the most powerful truths that can shift everything in your life—the story you're telling yourself is shaping your reality, and here's the kicker: YOU have the power to rewrite that story. For too many of us, our lives are defined by old narratives—stories of trauma, failure, and fear that keep us stuck in patterns that no longer serve us. But let me tell you, you're ONE decision away from flipping the script entirely. You weren't born to be ordinary. You were born to be GREAT. So, it's time to take control of your story, free yourself from the limiting beliefs that are holding you back, and start living a life that reflects your highest potential. You are the hero of this journey, and it's time to pick up the pen and write a new chapter—one filled with triumph, growth, and fulfillment. Don't let the story of your past define your future. It's time to take control starting NOW. In this episode you'll learn: Your Story Shapes Your Life: The narrative you believe dictates your outcomes. Change the story, and you change your life. One Decision Can Change Everything: A single mindset shift can alter the entire course of your journey.

Lured Up Podcast 321 Record Date - 9/24/24 Publish Date - 9/27/24   We have plenty to discuss this week as the hits just keep on coming. Niantic is keeping their foot on the gas pedal with Max Out, as new events, Pokémon and Shinies are inbound to the game this month.   We begin with a recap of our last week of gameplay including the Psychic Spectacular and Dynamax Beldum Raids. We loved seeing a fleshed out and diverse event that provides a bit of gameplay for many different disciplines of Trainers. The focus this week however is on DMax Beldum, which while not too tough a boss in the end, definitely took a lot of Trainers by surprise in their first few battles. This makes DMax even more promising as a vessel to release new and exciting content to the game.   Oranguru and Passimian Research Day delivered as expected with simple tasks and plenty of Shinies. Having events like this that support free to play players and the most hardcore at the same time is no simple feat. In the end, these types of events just work out well for everyone that plays them. We also have news of the Galar Starters coming as Max Battles along with Falinx, which will keep that DMax Train chugging along.   Plenty of miscellaneous news this week including Sewaddle Community Day, new TCG inspired Stickers, Campfire on browser, and sharing items in Party Play. This season is absolutely jammed with content and October looks to keep it going.    Baltimore Regionals were this last weekend and many notable Battlers have spoken up about the state of PvP negatively impacting the event. When Niantic makes a known issue as resolved, yet it rears its head on the world stage, it is never a good look. We hope that in the end all of the battles played were decided fairly.   Between Legendary Heroes and Galarian Expedition, we have Zacian and Zamazenta returning, but this time with their Shiny forms. We have a strong feeling that Raids will be popping off for the next two weeks.

Want to Feel Like You're Living a Longer, Fuller Life? Does it feel like time is flying by faster as you get older? In this solo podcast episode, I'm revealing a powerful secret to slow time down and experience a FULLER RICHER LIFE by creating new, dense memories.

Practical tips on how to break out of your routine, like brushing your teeth with the opposite hand or taking a different route to work. The challenge to pick two new experiences over the next year that will enrich your life and create lasting memories. How anticipation of upcoming events can make your days feel longer and more meaningful. The importance of living with intention to create a life that feels fuller and more impactful. In this episode, I'm challenging you to stop letting time slip away and start living more DELIBERATELY. Whether it's learning a new hobby, taking a new approach to your daily habits, or exploring a different aspect of your life, it's all about engaging with the world around you in fresh, exciting ways.

This week, my good friend BRENDON BURCHARD and I are digging into a fundamental question that challenges every one of us… HOW DO WE MANAGE THE BUSY SEASON OF OUR LIVES and come out on top? 

“I LOOKED OVER MY SHOULDER, AND THERE HE WAS, FACE DOWN, INSIDE OUR GATED LOCKED POOL……HE WAS LIFELESS, HIS FACE WAS BLUE……”“THE DOCTOR CAME IN AND TOLD US THERE WAS ZERO PERCENT CHANCE OF HIS BRAIN EVER FUNCTIONING RIGHT AGAIN……”I warn you, this is not an easy episode to listen to, and you will cry just like I did.This week you're going to hear the emotional and tragic story of country music superstar GRANGER SMITH.Every parent's worst nightmare came true for Granger and his wife, Amber, in 2019 when their son, River, drowned in a pool accident, plunging Granger and his family into a world of deep despair.But his story is also about a man finding a path of REDEMPTION AND PURPOSE after a spiritual encounter, leaving the music business behind to pursue a future in ministry, which Granger details in his recently released book, Like a River: Finding the Faith and Strength to Move Forward After Loss and Heartache.Although losing his child is a difficult story to hear, Granger's story is also about FAITH, HOPE, and finding PEACE after your world has been turned upside down.Since that moment, he has sought ANSWERS to the most profound questions in life, taking him in new directions he never could have imagined.Above all else, our hour spent together is a deep discussion of how GOD impacts our lives in ways we can't begin to understand until we're going through challenging times.From these times, one of the great LESSONS OF LIFE is that when rising from the worst of all imaginable tragedies, we are often reborn…And just like Granger Smith, we find our TRUE LIFE'S PURPOSE as part of our healing process.
