Easter has such a deeper meaning for me this year. It’s been a slow roll but I really came back to my faith over the past 2 years.

Long story short, I was in one heck of a dark place for quite some time, even though my life looked great on the outside. Nothing could satisfy my soul and nothing brought me peace or hope.

I found it in my dude Jesus. Wasn’t a quick fix but man, over time so much changed. I know He’s real because He changed a man like me. I threw off religion and made it a relationship instead. Game changer

It’s Easter Sunday. He was tortured and murdered on a cross BUT He came back to life and made a way out for all of us. Absolutely epic!

GREATEST COMEBACK IN HISTORY BABY! 🙌🏽

“Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is not here; He is RISEN!” Luke 24:5-6

*Straight up… I’m not the poster child of being a believer in Jesus nor do I live a perfect life. I still struggle & fail like everyone does but I’ll tell you what, def found true love

Happy Hump Day beautiful people! Episode 175 is up with What truly remains in the heart of a first responder after seeing and experiencing all they have done? Join us as our special guest, Anthony Hernandez, a veteran firefighter who unveils the raw truths of a life dedicated to emergency services. From the front lines of wildland blazes to the intense demands of municipal firefighting, Anthony’s career is a mosaic of courage, growth, and the relentless pursuit of balance amidst the smoldering challenges of the job.

The weight of the badge carries more than just responsibility—it bears the heavy toll of mental health, a topic often overshadowed by the the stigma of being weak. Anthony’s candid account extends into his transformative journey with Frontline Behavioral Wellness, where his personal experiences with PTSD and alcoholism illuminate the path for aiding veterans and first responders. As we share stories of camaraderie and the fortitude found in peer support, we’re reminded that the mission of saving others transcends beyond the emergencies—it’s also about safeguarding the minds and hearts of those who serve.

In the echoes of the firetruck’s departure, we discover tales of faith, family, and friendships that bind and heal. Anthony and Tim explore the nuanced dance between personal trauma and professional valor, where the strength of relationships and the power of faith carve a refuge from the chaos. Every shared experience, from the serenity of silence to the laughter with a friend, manifests as a beacon of hope, guiding us toward a future where first responders can embrace vulnerability as courageously as they face their jobs.

Thanks for taking the time to listen in. Please leave us 5 stars on Spotify & Apple Podcasts with a review. THANK YOU!

Episode 173 is up with … We welcome the incredible Stephen Sanchez, whose stories of carving through Newport Beach’s formidable waves on his trusty ‘roller coaster’ surfboard crafted by Alex Gamino set the stage for a profound exploration of the intersection between surfing and life’s broader challenges. As we talk about our mutual respect for the art of shaping and the local surf scene, Stephen shares stories from the ocean’s depths that serve as powerful metaphors for the personal growth and gratitude cultivated through early morning dawn patrols and navigating life’s unpredictability.

Overcoming doubt and building confidence, our guest discusses the parallels between learning to ride the waves and mastering the art of tattooing. The heartfelt stories of personal loss and the quest for inner peace resonate as we discuss the importance of embracing one’s unique self and navigating the intricate tapestry of life’s adversities with resilience.

Join us for an episode that’s far more than just a conversation on surfing and tattoos—it’s a philosophically rich dialogue on seeking wisdom, fostering a positive mental outlook, and the search for joy amidst grief. Stephen’s ethos of focusing on the present and giving one’s best in each moment underpins an inspiring narrative that encourages listeners to face fears with courage, embrace their individuality, and live life to its absolute fullest.
