  • Trees Need Wind to Grow Strong: Ashlyn Colette on Self-Acceptance
    Jan 7 2026

    Just like trees need wind to develop deeper roots and grow stronger, humans need adversity to build resilience. Ashlyn Colette embodies this powerful metaphor, having survived a devastating car accident, family trauma, addiction, and mental health crisis—all before finding her path to recovery and self-acceptance. In this vulnerable conversation, Ashlyn discusses her journey from feeling like "nothing" to discovering self-love, the difference between toxic and healing communities, and why accepting all parts of yourself, including shame and guilt—is essential for personal growth and lasting transformation.

  • Never Quite Enough: Notah Begay III on Identity and Finding Power in Service to Others
    Nov 19 2025

    What happens when four PGA Tour wins feel inadequate, when every public appearance carries the weight of representing an entire community, and when success leaves you asking "am I doing enough?" Professional golfer and NBC broadcaster Notah Begay III opens up about the exhausting psychology of being the only Native American in elite golf and sports.

    From a public DUI arrest at 26 that became a crisis management case study, to sobriety, to career-ending injuries and depression, Begay reveals how the relentless pursuit of "enough" nearly destroyed him. This raw conversation explores his transformation from self-obsessed athlete to community advocate through the NB3 Foundation, inspired by Mother Teresa's insight that real power comes through service. Both Alex and Notah mirror each other's struggle with perfectionism, the loss of presence in modern life, and the discovery that purpose isn't found in achievement - it's found in showing up for others.

    About Our Featured Charity:

    This season, Alex Perry On Fire is making a monetary contribution to each guest’s charity of choice. Notah Begay’s charity is The Notah Begay III (NB3) Foundation.
