Episode Synopsis

In today's episode, I sit down with author Justin Whitmel Earley.  Justin's career began as a missionary in China until becoming a business lawyer. Along the way, he faced a tough mental health crisis that changed everything for him. What came out of that season? A totally different way of living. One that was shaped by intentional habits and vulnerability.  We talk about the two spiritual habits he leans on the most, how being vulnerable can strengthen our friendships, and what it looks like to build deep connections with our kids (even in the midst of chaos).  He also shares about his book The Big Mess - a reminder that the messiness of life, especially with our kids, can actually be a gift.  Grab a copy of Justin's new kids book: The Big Mess: https://amzn.to/3YHlxSi  Thanks to our amazing partners on this episode: International Justice Mission & Vern Eide International Justice Mission is a global nonprofit working to end slavery and violence around the world, taking special care of survivors from the moment they're rescued all the way through their healing and restoration.
