Ever feel overwhelmed by the endless decisions you have to make as a parent - not to mention the barrage of advice from experts with ever-changing opinions?

In this episode, we get the treat of having two of the next generation Alessi couples in the podcast booth - Chris Muina and Stephanie Alessi Muina, and Richelle and Christopher Alessi.

Together, they are jumping into the raw realities of raising young kids—sharing laughs, struggles, and honest takes on gentle parenting, immunization and trusting your doctors, discipline, and letting go of comparison. You'll discover how friendship, flexibility, and faith help keep balance when every family meal and doctor’s visit brings new choices and opinions.

Hear how they navigate the pressure to do everything “right,” wrestle with modern parenting controversies, and find peace by trusting their instincts and holding on to their parental authority.

You’ll walk away with fresh perspective on giving yourself grace, trusting your gut, and savoring the everyday chaos—plus get practical encouragement for loving your kids (and yourself) through both wins and mess-ups.

Are you truly becoming a better person in 2026? Or are you just building things that won't bring you joy long-term?

In this episode, you'll discover how to become a better version of yourself in 2026 by developing the right habits, cultivating inner peace, and building meaningful relationships—both at home and in business.

Hosts Steve Alessi and Mary Alessi kick off the new year with practical advice on why becoming matters more than what you build. Instead of chasing only achievements, learn how forming healthy habits, seeking peace, and prioritizing character can set the foundation for lasting success and true happiness.

You'll hear real stories from the Alessi family’s holiday season, including lessons about handling drama-free gatherings, learning to embrace failures, and the importance of intentional, honest conversations within your family and workplace. Steve Alessi and Mary Alessi also share wisdom from decades in ministry and marriage about preparing your heart and mind for the future, nurturing self-awareness, and stepping into your role as a leader in your home.

Whether you're a young couple building a life together, a business owner aiming for growth, or someone seeking health and balance in 2026, this episode provides a roadmap for becoming who you’re meant to be while you reach for your goals.

What can you learn about your new brother-in-law while spending hours in a hunting blind? In this episode, we introduce the newest member of the family, Christian Catalayud, as he shares how he's growing a relationship with his new brothers-in-law, Chris Alessi and Chris Muina.

Christian married Gaby Alessi in October 2025, and over the first few months of their marriage, Christian has been introduced to the blessed but sometimes topsy-turvy world of being married into ministry.

You'll hear a candid conversation about what it’s like to be welcomed into the Alessi family—especially through marriage and brotherhood. With fresh stories from Thanksgiving hunting trips, heartfelt moments of bonding in hunting blinds and stands, and plenty of laughs, the guys reveal the unique dynamic that unfolds when new members join a tight-knit family.

From hilarious hunting adventures to navigating the ups and downs of family traditions, this episode offers real insight into the importance of honor, mutual respect, and intentional connection. Plus, Christian opens up about becoming the newest brother-in-law and what it’s like having your pastor become your father-in-law.

Whether you’re part of a big family or just trying to create meaningful relationships, you’ll find plenty to relate to here—because, as always, family is everybody’s business!
