This episode is incredibly long overdue but the stars aligned, and I had the chance to interview someone who has been instrumental in helping me become the man I am today. That person is none other than my mom, Julie Wilson. I can’t wait for you to hear her story and mine from her perspective.
You’ve heard me talk about many of the difficult chapters in my life—losing my sister, surviving a near-fatal car crash, battling cancer—but today, you’ll hear those stories through the eyes of the woman who lived them right alongside me. And when I say literally, I mean literally beside me.
My mom has been through more than most: the heartbreaking loss of a daughter (my sister), raising a rebellious teen (yep, that was me), watching me fight for my life multiple times, and most recently, surviving a serious fall that shattered her heel and broke her wrist. And yet, she remains one of the most joyful, optimistic, and resilient people I know. Her strength doesn’t come from avoiding hardship—it comes from choosing laughter, faith, and service in the face of it.
Whether you’re a parent, a child, or someone simply navigating a tough season with life’s curveballs, this episode is packed with love, wisdom, and great perspective. You’ll learn how the positive mindset that I have today started when I was very young, why my family chooses to focus on the good things and not on the things that are out of our control, and how my mom lives with unshakable joy, even when life gets tough.
