For this Lonesome Conversation, Tim Corcoran joins me to pull apart two very different kinds of loneliness: the interpersonal ache of having no one around, and the existential kind where you feel alone in the universe even in a crowded room. We get into why the wild speaks to that deeper loneliness, why middle-aged men are statistically the loneliest among us, and why "just go find community" so often fails to fill the gap.About TimTim Corcoran is the founder of Purpose Mountain, where he offers Nature Based Purpose Guidance to support people with a love for wild nature who feel a deep yearning to discover their soul-level calling. Tim also serves as co-director of Twin Eagles Wilderness School, an organization he co-founded with his wife, Jeannine Tidwell, in Sandpoint, Idaho in 2005, dedicated to facilitating deep nature connection mentoring, cultural restoration, and inner tracking.A leader of wilderness vision quests, holistic rites of passage, and men's groups, Tim has been facilitating spiritual initiations in the wilderness since 1999. Healing the cultural rift between the mainstream and indigenous cultures, transformational consciousness work, the spiritual journey, ancestral work, the sacred hunt, deep nature connection, family, and health are all strong commitments in his life. Tim is a heart-centered father of two brilliant sons and husband to a magnificent wife, and lives in pristine Sandpoint, Idaho.Lonesome Conversations Limited SeriesLonesome Conversations is a special series from The Life Stylist, built around my new book, A Horse Named Lonesome (out November 17, 2026). Loneliness is something almost everyone goes through, and almost nobody talks about honestly. So I sat down with psychologists, philosophers, trauma therapists, teachers, and friends to find the truth about loneliness, and how we heal from it. Each episode is its own conversation, but together they walk the same ground the book maps out. (Pre-order your copy at ahorsenamedlonesome.com) You'll find new episodes alongside our regular show over the coming months.
Here are the 12 guiding principles I run my business and my relationships on. I learned them from two mentors here in Sandpoint, and they are the backbone of how I hold a coaching practice, a podcast, retreats, a university class, and a full life without leaking energy everywhere. They work as a daily practice, and I return to them imperfectly. The one word in principle number one that decides how much of other people's lives you carry Why the question you ask after a launch flops usually sends you somewhere useless What to do with the thing you are not ready to forgive yet Pick one, practice it on purpose, and notice what shifts.

What does it really look like to live out your faith beyond the walls of a church?In this episode of the Be Bold For Jesus Podcast, we sit down with Chaplain TK from Shine 104.9 to talk about what it actually looks like to follow Jesus in everyday life. TK shares how he went from working in media to stepping into ministry and serving people right where they're at. Instead of a traditional path, his focus has been on showing up, building relationships, and loving people in practical ways.
