8 OTT 2026 · For some reason, we inherently believe that joy is a byproduct of success. Yet, we finish the project, celebrate for five minutes, and move on to the next thing, waking up one day confused as to why the joy didn't seem to follow.
In this epsiode, Dr. Josh shares why so many leaders and parents lose joy, and what joy really is: not a feeling or a byproduct of success, but a present-tense experience rooted in our trust in God. Where happiness depends on circumstances; joy depends on position.
Here are some takeaways and highlights:
- Ask: does my family experience me as proud of what they do, or delighted that they exist?
- Screens keep us in the left brain. Relational joy lives in the right brain.
- Gratitude has to be experienced, not just listed.
- Your calendar is discipling you. What is it teaching you about joy?
- How and why God scheduled joy.

1 OTT 2026 · When was the last time you jumped in a pile of leaves without taking a picture of it? And do you know what not doing this is doing to your nervous system?
In this week's episode, Dr. Josh talks about what it means to go analog in a digital world. He covers why our screens have quietly become our masters, what half-attention teaches our kids, and the small two-degree shifts that bring us back to our own soul, our spouse, and our kids. You don't have to get rid of your devices. But you may need to get rid of your vices.
Here are some highlights:
- Anything you can't fast from owns you.
- Connection comes from small two-degree shifts, not one radical decision.
- Kids notice your continous partial attention. When they say "look at me," they deserve all of you.
- Go analog: find what works for you (e.g. no dings, phone stays inside when you play, one screen-free room, one screen-free time of day.)
- Boredom isn't the enemy. It's where creativity starts.
- Use screens to create, not just consume.
- God often speaks in the silence, and our noise can drown Him out.

22 SET 2026 · What if you could have a rock-solid marriage in just 15 minutes a day? This is not a gimmick.
Emotional disconnection rarely happens all at once. It happens through small, subtle shifts as work, kids, schedules, and the demands of life slowly pull us away from each other.
In this episode, Dr. Josh shares the fundamental exercise he's seen help marriages grow by leaps and bounds. It's a simple daily practice he calls the 15-Minute Exercise.
You’ll learn:
- The simple daily question every couple can ask each other
- Why your spouse is a person to love, not a problem to solve
- The three most powerful words to transform a difficult conversation
- How to listen without fixing, defending, or becoming defensive
- How this simple practice can become a lifestyle rather than another item on your to-do list
Your marriage doesn’t always need a major overhaul. Sometimes it needs a two-degree shift.

9 SET 2026 · What if becoming a healthier leader at home doesn’t require a major overhaul, but simply a two-degree shift?
High-capacity leaders know how to solve problems, make decisions, and get things done. But the skills that make you effective at work don’t always translate at home. That’s because your greatest strengths, like your drive, capacity, and ability to fix things, can keep you from slowing down, listening, and connecting with the biggest fans under your roof.
In this episode, Dr. Josh explores how small relational shifts can change the way you lead in your marriage and family. He also provides small, practical, two-degree shifts that can change the trajectory of your family and the atmosphere of your home. You don’t need a 90-degree turn. You just need two degrees.

9 LUG 2026 · A major new study just dropped on faith transmission across generations — and Josh breaks it down. Drawing from Passing the Torch (Institute for Family Studies), decades of research by Vern Bengston on relational warmth, and John Gottman's data on repair, this episode answers the question we’re all asking as Christian parents: Will my kids keep the faith when they leave home?
Josh not only covers the key research findings, but more importantly offers practical strategies and connects the dots between your own spiritual growth and the faith your kids carry into adulthood.

1 LUG 2026 · If you've ever wrestled with complicated family dynamics or wondered how to honor your parents or in-laws while protecting your own family, this episode will encourage and challenge you with a deeply biblical perspective.
What does it really mean to honor your father and mother in a culture that often encourages us to walk away from difficult relationships? In this episode, Josh explores why honoring your parents doesn't mean denying your pain—but it does require a biblical perspective on love, boundaries, forgiveness, and generational legacy.
In this episode, Josh discusses:
- How your children are learning from the way you treat your parents
- Why we've inflated words like toxic, trauma, and boundaries
- The difference between honoring someone and enabling unhealthy behavior
- Why healing doesn't always require cutting people off
- The power of reframing your family story
- Practical ways to navigate difficult relationships with parents and in-laws
- How to discern between characterological versus circumstantial expectations of your parents / in-laws

24 GIU 2026 · Parents today have more resources, information, and support than ever before—yet anxiety, fragility, and emotional struggles among children continue to rise.
In this conversation, bestselling author and counselor David Thomas joins Josh to explore a difficult question: Have our good intentions as parents unintentionally gotten in the way of raising capable, resilient kids?
Together they discuss:
- Why confidence grows from competence—not constant praise
- How over-helping can undermine a child's resilience
- The surprising connection between failure and emotional health
- Why happiness should never be the primary goal of parenting
- The dangers of "rescuing" kids from every struggle
- How healthy boundaries create security
- What today's anxiety epidemic reveals about modern parenting
- Why children need opportunities to struggle, fail, and recover
- Practical ways to build capability at every age
David also shares one simple challenge every parent can implement this week to begin raising children who are resourceful, resilient, and prepared for life.
If you've ever wondered whether you're helping your child too much—or how to raise kids who can thrive in an increasingly fragile culture—this episode is for you.

17 GIU 2026 · Most men were never taught how to be emotionally present. They were taught how to provide, how to perform, and how to push through. And for a long time, that felt like enough. But if you've ever come home after leading hundreds of people at work and felt completely lost in your own living room, you're not alone. This is why famous at home exists in the first place.
In this episode, Josh discusses the tension men feel between the demands of their professional lives and the deeper call of their homes. Drawing on decades of research—including what one USC longitudinal study found is the single greatest factor for passing faith across generations—his own coaching work with high-capacity men, and two personal moments where he heard the quiet voice of God, Josh unpacks the three relationships every father must tend: with his wife, with his kids, and with Jesus.
Whether you lead hundreds at work and feel lost at home, or you're simply trying to figure out what a present, emotionally engaged husband and father looks like in practice — this one's for you.
