Episode 6 – Like a River: A Journey Through Military Service, Creativity, and Fatherhood

Life, like a river, twists and turns — sometimes calm, sometimes rushing, always moving forward.

In this deeply personal episode of The Open Booth, host Matthew R. O. Brown sits down with a guest whose life flows through the defining chapters of military service, artistic creativity, and the joys and challenges of fatherhood. Recorded on location inside the booth, the conversation captures the ebb and flow of life’s transitions — the moments that carry us forward, the rapids we fight against, and the still waters where we find peace.

Through candid reflection, the guest shares how the discipline of military life shaped his resilience, how creativity became a vital outlet for self-expression, and how fatherhood reshaped his priorities and purpose. It’s a conversation about identity, balance, and the courage to navigate change.

🎙 In this episode, you’ll discover:

• How military service can shape outlook and adaptability

• The role of creativity in personal growth and emotional health

• Lessons children teach us about love, patience, and perspective

• Why embracing life’s seasons can bring peace

With honesty and warmth, Like a River reminds us that life’s flow isn’t always predictable — but every turn can carry us closer to who we’re meant to be.
