Downloads matter. Subscribers matter. Landing the guest everyone recognizes moves the needle. There's a real logic to it. But the side effect is that you end up hearing the same people on the same shows, telling versions of a story you've already heard. AlignedLife is going a different direction. I'm not interested in who's already famous. I'm interested in who has something real to say --- and more often than I think we realize, those aren't the same person. Some of the most important messages I've ever encountered came from people nobody had heard of yet. There's something about the unknown voice that carries a different kind of weight, maybe because it hasn't been filtered through a thousand interviews yet. The message is still alive in it. So this is what AlignedLife stands for: finding those voices. Creating space for conversations that haven't happened yet. Introducing you to people who might just change the way you see yourself --- or the life you're building. The question I ask when looking for guests isn't "how big is their audience?" It's simpler. Do I genuinely want to sit across from this person? Do they have something worth hearing? Do I believe, somewhere down the line, the world will wonder why it took so long to find them? That's enough. There's a short list of exceptions --- people I admire enough that I'd drop everything if the call came: Kendrick Lamar, J. Cole, Rick Rubin, Russ, Chris Williamson, Rich Roll, Dr. Joe Dispenza, Steven Pressfield, Kevin Kelly, Steph Curry, Rihanna, Ryan Holiday, Natalie Portman, Jay-Z, Eckhart Tolle, Mark Wahlberg, Cole Bennett, Jessica Alba, Jimmy Iovine, Dr. Dre, and Jon Bellion. That list is always growing. But the real work --- the work I'm most excited about --- is the search. Finding the voices that are ready before the world knows to look for them. Introducing you to someone living their Authentic Life on their own terms, quietly, before anyone thought to pay attention. That's the pursuit.

  • The Five: "What Are We Running From?"
    Apr 27 2026

    This week on The Five, we're sitting with an uncomfortable question that kept surfacing across every single pillar: we know what we need — so why aren't we doing it?

    Americans are cutting off loved ones at record rates while simultaneously reporting they've never felt more alone. The research on behavior change confirms what most of us already sense — that willpower isn't the problem, identity is. A landmark medical review just validated what movement practitioners have known for years. A record $1.277 trillion in credit card debt points to something deeper than a budgeting problem. And the creative world is quietly pushing back against the pressure to be perfect.

    Five pillars. Five conversations worth having. All of them pointing to the same thing — the gap between knowing and actually living it. The Five.

    Intro music by Dylan Sitts, "Dying Daylight"

  • The Five: "Something Is Shifting"
    Apr 23 2026

    Welcome to the very first episode of The Five — a weekly show inside the AlignedLife podcast where we explore one news headline and one deeper idea across all five pillars of aligned living: spirit, mind, body, money, and creativity.

    Something is shifting in America — and this week, you can feel it across all five pillars. A generation that grew up online is quietly turning toward faith, not out of tradition, but out of a hunger for something real. A landmark executive order signed this week could change how we treat mental illness forever — and the conversation it opens goes much deeper than politics. We talk about why so many of us have mastered optimizing our bodies while losing touch with actually living in them. Two major studies dropped this month that reveal how Americans are completely rewriting what financial success means — and what the data says might surprise you. And a new study just showed that AI can now outperform the average human on creativity tests — which, rather than being a reason to stop creating, might be the clearest argument yet for why you should never stop.

    Five pillars. Five conversations worth having. This is The Five.

  • The Leap Before The Plan With Phil Wood | Convos With Friends
    Apr 10 2026

    In this episode, I sit down with my coach Phil Wood for what I hope will be a regular series of conversations — and I couldn't think of a better place to start than the story of one of the biggest chapter endings I've ever heard. Phil and his wife Jen spent 20 years as church-planting pastors, pouring their entire lives — their identity, their community, their spirituality, their income — into one calling. And then, five years ago, they walked away from all of it.

    What drove that decision wasn't a strategic plan. It was grief. It was a profound moment at his father's bedside, a release of a lifetime of seeking approval, and the gut-level knowing that the second half of life had to look different. What followed was a leap into the unknown — with three boys, no business plan, and the complete trust that the path would reveal itself.

    We get into what it actually feels like to end a chapter before you know what comes next, why so many of us stay in the wrong chapters far too long, and how Phil and Jen experimented their way into building Expansion Lab — a leadership development company that looks nothing like what they imagined on day one.

    We also explore the difference between genuine evolution and moving the goalposts, why inner work is the foundation of everything, the role of support systems when you're taking the biggest risks of your life, and what it means to bet on yourself when you have a family depending on you. This is a conversation about faith, alignment, and what it looks like to actually live the authentic life — not just talk about it.
