Most people don’t choose their life — they drift into it.

In this episode, Ally and I go behind the scenes on how we’re trying to build our dream life with intention, especially in a season where a lot still feels uncertain. We talk about faith, family, discipline, trade-offs, and why “someday” thinking quietly steals your future.

You’ll hear:

• Why goals feel empty when you don’t know what you actually want
• The “perfect day” exercise (and what it reveals about your real priorities)
• The kind of parents we want to be — and how trust is built through communication
• Respect, discipline, and the small habits that shape a home
• Phone distraction, presence, and why we’re trying to build those habits now
• The trade-offs: what we’re willing to sacrifice — and what we’re not
• Gratitude as a foundation (even in waiting seasons)

The Dream Life Framework (5 Questions):

1. What kind of life do I want?
2. What values will define my home?
3. What am I willing to sacrifice?
4. What am I not willing to sacrifice?
5. Who do I want to become in the process?

Getting After It is for those who. want to silence their self-doubt. Refuse to be owned by comfort. Understand their limits are man-made and breakable. We live in a time of constant comparison. Social media drowns us in highlight reels and overnight success stories. But what most people don’t see is the grit behind it all. The reps. The quiet mornings. The sacrifices. The failures.

You are just getting started. Keep Getting After It.
