  • Nellie Beall: From Malaysia to Arkansas, Identity, Grief, and the Power of Showing Up

    Nellie Beall: From Malaysia to Arkansas, Identity, Grief, and the Power of Showing Up
    Apr 15 2026
    What does it take to leave home at 18, move halfway across the world, and build a life from scratch? In this episode of The Resilience Playbook, Cole Rodgers sits down with Nellie Beall to talk about leaving Malaysia for Arkansas in 2001, arriving just before 9/11, and navigating identity, survival, and belonging in a completely new world. Nellie shares how she chose the University of Arkansas because she wanted to challenge herself, even though almost no one from Malaysia went there. She arrived with a $15,000 check from her parents, stretched every dollar, and learned to survive on her own while adapting to a new culture far from home. After 9/11, she received instructions from the Malaysian embassy to keep a bag packed in case she had to leave quickly, while carrying the emotional weight of protecting her family back home from everything she was experiencing. The conversation also explores Nellie’s journey with code-switching, losing parts of her identity, and eventually reclaiming the richness of both cultures. She opens up about going back to Malaysia in 2023 after 17 years, the loss of her father during that trip, her infertility journey, autoimmune disease, and the years of counseling that helped her rebuild her sense of self. Cole and Nellie also talk about service, leadership, and why showing up matters. In 2014, she co-founded Intersection, a weekly dinner service in Fayetteville for the unhoused and food-insecure community. More than a meal, the work is built around dignity, consistency, and making sure people feel seen. If you have ever wrestled with identity, grief, belonging, or the challenge of showing up for others while carrying your own pain, this conversation will meet you where you are.

  • Father Patrick Friend: The Courage to Say Yes When God Calls You to More

    Father Patrick Friend: The Courage to Say Yes When God Calls You to More
    Apr 1 2026
    What does it take to walk away from everything the world says will make you happy—career, wealth, marriage, family—and step into a life most people can't understand? In this episode of The Resilience Playbook, Cole Rodgers sits down with Father Patrick Friend, a Catholic priest, chaplain, and teacher at Catholic High School for boys in Little Rock, Arkansas. This is a conversation about faith, suffering, calling, and what it actually means to surrender your life to something bigger than yourself. Father Patrick grew up in a faith-filled home where prayer wasn't optional and Mass was non-negotiable. His father showed him what it meant to love sacrificially. His mother showed him what it meant to live faithfully. And his uncle, a priest himself, showed him that joy and holiness could coexist. But even with that foundation, the priesthood wasn't a straight path. It was a calling he put aside in seventh grade when he discovered girls, dated seriously in college, and planned on dental school—until his mother was diagnosed with stage four kidney cancer two weeks after he graduated. What followed was a crash course in faith under fire. Watching his mother face terminal illness with unshakable peace cracked something open in Patrick. He started going back to Mass. He started praying again. And in the chapel at Catholic High, where he had taken a teaching job to be near his family, God started speaking. This conversation goes deep. Patrick talks about the moment he heard God's voice while mowing a stranger's lawn, the fear and freedom that came with saying yes to the priesthood, the six years of seminary formation that followed, and the spiritual warfare that shows up the second you start moving toward something holy. He also unpacks some of the hardest questions we face: Why does the good person suffer? What is evil? How do we carry the weight of life without breaking? And why does resilience require more than just grit—it requires grace. If you've ever wrestled with your faith, questioned your calling, or wondered how to keep going when life doesn't make sense, this episode will meet you where you are. IN THIS EPISODE • Growing up in a home where faith was lived, not just taught • The moment Patrick knew he wanted to be a priest—at eight years old • Discovering women in seventh grade and putting the priesthood aside • His mother's stage four cancer diagnosis and the worst news of his life • Witnessing faith in the face of suffering and what it taught him about God • Teaching at Catholic High and returning to prayer during his mother's illness • The prayer that changed everything: "Lord, I do not want what you want for me—help me to desire your will" • The moment God spoke while mowing a stranger's lawn • Understanding evil, sin, and the devil from a theological perspective • Six years of seminary formation and what it takes to become a priest • Why the good person suffers—and why suffering is part of the story • Carrying the weight without breaking: the truth that no man is an island • The Desert Fathers and the call to get back up until you die • Spiritual warfare and why the enemy attacks the moment you move toward holiness • What it means to live a life of surrender, service, and joy ABOUT FATHER PATRICK FORTIN Father Patrick Friend is a Catholic priest serving as chaplain and teacher at Catholic High School for boys in Little Rock, Arkansas. He teaches freshman English, sophomore biology, and junior religion while caring for the spiritual needs of students, faculty, and families. Ordained alongside his younger brother Joe, who is also a priest, Father Patrick is known for his authenticity, humor, and ability to meet people exactly where they are. He is the son of Jerry and the late Betty Friend, nephew of a priest, and a man who said yes to a calling that cost him everything the world values—and gave him everything that matters.

  • Dustin Moseley: The Hidden Struggles of Pro Baseball and Building Mental Toughness

    Dustin Moseley: The Hidden Struggles of Pro Baseball and Building Mental Toughness
    Mar 15 2026
    What does it really cost to chase a dream all the way to the big leagues? And what happens when the game that defined your identity suddenly disappears? In this episode of The Resilience Playbook, Cole Rodgers sits down with former MLB pitcher Dustin Moseley for an honest conversation about pressure, loss, reinvention, and the kind of resilience that only develops when success stops being the whole story. Drafted 34th overall by the Cincinnati Reds straight out of high school, Dustin went on to pitch seven seasons in Major League Baseball with the Los Angeles Angels, New York Yankees, and San Diego Padres. From the outside it looked like the dream. Behind the scenes it was injuries, rehab, loneliness, doubt, and the weight of a performance-driven relationship with his father that shaped him long before professional baseball ever did.

He also shares what it meant to have his identity tied to performance, what repeated setbacks taught him about discipline and gratitude, and how he ultimately built Proformance Sports Academy into a place where young athletes develop not only as players, but as people. If you are a parent, coach, athlete, or anyone rebuilding life after things didn’t go according to plan, this conversation will resonate. IN THIS EPISODE • Growing up in Texarkana and becoming a first-round MLB draft pick • Choosing professional baseball over college • The pressure of performance-based approval • Losing his father to addiction in 2004 • The emotional toll of injuries and rehabilitation • Why discipline, accountability, and competition still matter • Learning a cutter from Billy Connors with the Yankees • The football field moment that changed his career trajectory • The full-circle moment in Chattanooga that ended his playing career • Building Proformance Sports Academy from the ground up • Why gratitude is the foundation of lasting fulfillment • What he would tell his younger self today ABOUT DUSTIN MOSELEY Dustin Moseley is a former Major League Baseball pitcher who played seven seasons with the Los Angeles Angels, New York Yankees, and San Diego Padres.
