An attempted assassination on a president should stop a nation in its tracks, not blend into the weekend like background noise. We sit with that chilling “new norm,” then ask the harder question: what are we doing to each oth...

A year can pass in a blur, and then one date cracks everything open. We sit down again, husband and wife, to revisit the phone call she dreaded for years: the one that told her the police needed her to identify her mother. Wh...

We juggle a sick kid, zero sleep, and a late-night recording, then land on the one story we promised: how Good Friday and Easter Sunday reshaped our faith. We talk about grief after suicide loss, the power of being prayed ove...

Episode 300 hits on a day that feels bigger than a calendar date. I’m looking back at six years of the Share the Struggle Podcast, 300 consecutive weeks with no hiatus, no missed shows, and no hiding from the messy parts of b...

I didn’t expect a 24-hour lesson to smack me in the face, but it did: wake up in Maine and go to bed in Texarkana, Arkansas, and you realize how much life can fit inside one day. I’m running hot lately, riding deadlines, feel...

The fastest way to feel crazy as a small business owner is to do “everything right” and still watch people walk by with empty hands. We just got back from the Eastern Maine Sportsman Show at the University of Maine in Orono, ...

Everybody loves the highlight reel of entrepreneurship. The booth photos, the road trips, the “we’re chasing a dream” energy. What people don’t see is who’s back home keeping the whole machine running when one of you leaves a...

The dust hasn’t settled, and maybe that’s the point. We just wrapped Daytona Bike Week 2026 with a week that threw everything at us—flooded tents, leaky air mattresses, midnight engines, and a sales curve that swung from reco...

The engines are loud, the tent is louder. From a canvas floor pooling with rainwater to a sales board we feared wouldn’t budge, our Daytona Bike Week run at the Cabbage Patch starts rough and gets real. We gambled big on a ne...

Two truths can coexist: headlines can drown out the soul of sport, and honest stories can still cut through the noise. We open with a candid look at how the Olympics should feel—earned pride, shared sacrifice, and a country p...

Eight people dead within days and two countries, and yet the first casualty was clarity. We open the mic on a hard truth: when mental distress goes unmanaged, when policy favors speed over stability, and when media framing ou...

The biggest stages in sports are supposed to pull us together. This week we ask why the Super Bowl halftime and the Olympic spotlight feel more like battlegrounds than bonfires—and what it would take to get the joy back. We s...

A number on a license plate. The same number at checkout minutes later. That strange echo was the push we needed to move from doubt to a full-send commitment: we’re heading back to Daytona Bike Week for the 85th anniversary, ...

Ever feel like you’re doing everything “right” but one email, one comment, or one awkward moment wipes your motivation clean? We’ve been there. Today we flip the script with a simple, powerful playbook: change the question, c...

Ready for proof that letting go creates room for better? We open the new year by celebrating real momentum—Rising Star growth, marathon listening, and fan-favorite ratings—then move straight into a candid story about alignmen...

What if the real upgrade this year isn’t a new purchase, but a new pattern of thinking? We open the door to a raw, relatable conversation about why we obsess over stuff, set punishing deadlines, and then watch our motivation ...

New Year, new kind of resolution: what if choosing patriotism—real, responsible, everyday patriotism—could lower the temperature, raise our standards, and bring some pride back into the room? We kick off 2026 by breaking down...

Midnight won’t fix your life, but a decision might. We’re closing the year by doing the uncomfortable work most people avoid: naming what we will leave behind so we can walk lighter, clearer, and truer. Instead of stacking ne...

Snow outside, lights low, coffee at night, and a toddler determined to cameo—this Christmas special is equal parts cozy and chaotic. We leaned into it. From goofy elf names to heartfelt family memories, we explore how the hol...

Time moves quietly, until you realize 2016 is somehow a decade behind you. We lean into that jolt and turn it into a practical tool to calm holiday anxiety: look back ten years, then name the next ten with intention. Along th...

Holidays have a way of turning up the volume on everything—joy, grief, pressure, and hope. This week, we follow a small family errand that became a marker moment: a dad, his daughter, his brother home after 15 years, and thei...

A snow globe of a day turns into a reunion years in the making as we welcome my brother home and share our first Thanksgiving together in decades. We open about addiction, boundaries, small business stress, and the hope that ...

Holidays bring glitter and gravity at the same time. We’re laughing about hot coffee and bulldogs one minute, then staring down the second anniversary of my dad’s passing the next. That’s real life at our place: farm chores, ...

The kind of moment that keeps a dream alive doesn’t always arrive with a banner; sometimes it’s a quiet ping at the register and a lump in your throat. We finally crossed the sales number we set five years ago—through shutdow...
