Planting Seeds with Soul

Show Notes

In this one, Kels and I open up about losing our family dog … 15 years of unconditional love, and man, that kind of grief hits different. We talk about what it’s like saying goodbye, especially when the bond runs deep.

From there, we get into a real convo about kids, iPads, and tech… what’s healthy, what’s not, and how different every parent’s approach can be. No judgment … just some grounded thoughts and honest reflections.

It all wraps up with me having a bit of a moment… I speak on some stuff from my past that I’m not proud of, but had to face in order to grow. It’s raw, it’s real, and a reminder that healing ain’t always pretty …but it’s always worth it.

Back into full time construction now so time’s a bit limited. These descriptions can suck up more energy than the podcast itself, so I’m keeping them simple from here.

Watene sat down with me and opened the door to parts of his life that most people would rather keep locked away. We spoke about a childhood shaped by chaos, a rough upbringing, gangs, anger, violence, addiction, and the kind of environments that can either swallow you whole or forge something powerful inside you.

The eldest stepping into high school. A threshold. The end of a season. The quiet grief and beauty that comes with watching your kids grow and something familiar slowly fall away.
