We speak from our beliefs, whether those beliefs are true or false. Since every action we make is based on a belief of some kind, we need to act from truth instead of a lie. Today, Elizabeth Rensch joins us on the podcast to discuss how to have better mindsets and beliefs about ourselves that are true and lead to a better life. It was a pleasure having Elizabeth join us, and we hope to have her on again soon.

We're thrilled to introduce you to Ian Smith. He is a professional outdoor instructor for the National Outdoor Leadership School, referred to as NOLS. His journey in becoming an instructor was an unexpected turning point when he decided to attend a 4 month course in Chile before attending law school. This NOLS course showed him how much he loved the outdoors and decided to take a new path where he can offer others life-changing adventures. We hope you enjoy our conversation with Ian as we also explore many of his other interests and a deeper insight on what it's like to be an instructor as others find their way in the great outdoors.
We are very happy to welcome Fr. Albert to the podcast. Fr. Albert is a native of the Phillipines and came to America in his service as a priest. We talk about what life looks like as a priest and how that looks serving in a foreign country. Then, we discuss finding one's vocation in life: a topic that Fr. Albert shares some great wisdom on. Our conversation ends on asking the question of what are we available for? This simple question shows what we truly love in life, and is a powerful perspective to see how we should better use our time in this life.

Usually under every epidemic that sweeps society, there is an underlying issue that isn't talked about, and this is true for the porn epidemic. Steve Pokorny is the founder and lead coach of Freedom Coaching, a counseling initiative helping so many people find freedom again. He joins us again to speak about how we move past the prison of compulsion and live once again in the beautiful reality that God has created for us. There is something we all are looking for but temptations for what seems easy detract us from the true good we are made for. We hope that this conversation will help everyone who listens find more hope and encouragement in becoming the person God made you to be.
