Throughout the promotion of SOUL ON FIRE, one name kept coming up around our office- Jan Roseberry! She was booking theaters, posting constantly on social media, even sending “you got this” notes to my team during one of the busiest seasons of our professional lives. And it made me wonder: what kind of person gives so freely of their time and heart for something bigger than themselves?

Over the past few weeks, I’ve gotten to know Jan even better than I previously did. And what I’ve discovered is that what makes her remarkable isn’t one big moment. It’s a lifetime of saying yes to growth, even when the next step wasn’t clear.

And Jan’s story reminds each of us that purpose often begins with a single, small yes.

Let me explain.

This week, The Voices of SOUL ON FIRE series concludes by welcoming Mark Isham, the award-winning composer for film and television whose music has shaped some of the most moving stories of our time. From A River Runs Through It to Crash to his latest masterpiece in SOUL ON FIRE, Mark’s work carries emotion, depth, and grace. Yet what shines even brighter than his talent is his humility. He views music not as notes on a page, but as a way to communicate love, courage, and connection.

Today, Mark shares how he’s learned to listen deeply, both in music and in life. He reflects on the blank canvas every artist faces, the mix of fear and faith that comes with creating, and how the secret to lasting success in both art and relationships is communication. Through stories of working with Robert Redford, Jodie Foster, and scoring the life-changing moments of SOUL ON FIRE, Mark reminds us that the best art begins in stillness, honesty, and a willingness to keep growing.

My friends, if you’ve ever questioned your purpose, your talent, or your next step forward, this conversation is for you. You’ll leave it reminded that creation isn’t about perfection. It’s about persistence. The best work and the best life come from showing up, listening well, and believing that the best is yet to come.

The past few weeks have been humbling and joy-filled. Interviews, headlines, sold-out theaters, and messages from around the world have celebrated SOUL ON FIRE. But the greatest joy has been watching how this story has lifted the people I love most. My sisters glowed on the red carpet after years of cheering from behind the scenes. Mom hasn’t stopped smiling, and Beth’s quiet grace is being recognized everywhere.

But my favorite hero to celebrate is the one who likes attention the least: my brother Jim. Let me explain.

This week, The Voices of SOUL ON FIRE series welcomes John Corbett, the beloved actor, musician, and storyteller who portrays my dad Denny O’Leary on the big screen. Long before he became known for his roles in My Big Fat Greek Wedding, Northern Exposure, and Sex and the City, John was a kid from a small West Virginia town, whose path from humble beginnings to Hollywood success reads like a movie script itself.

Today, John shares the moments that shaped him from hydro-testing steel pipes to discovering his gift for storytelling in a college improv class. He opens up about humility in the spotlight, his deep love for his wife Bo Derek, and the raw emotion that came from portraying my father in SOUL ON FIRE.

My friends, if you need a reminder that it’s never too late for your life to take an unexpected turn, or that joy and kindness are what truly make a person shine, this conversation is for you. You’ll leave it reminded that our stories, no matter how ordinary they begin, can ignite something extraordinary when we choose to live with hope, humor, and heart.

Returning to school after the fire 38 years ago, I worried if I'd still belong. That day, my classmates embraced me, and last Thursday they again showed up in love, reminding me just how much has changed… and how much hasn’t. Let me explain.

This week, The Voices of SOUL ON FIRE series welcomes the man who brought one of America’s most beloved voices to life: legendary broadcaster Jack Buck. To capture Jack’s courage and compassion, we turned to William H. Macy, the award-winning actor and master storyteller whose humility and heart shine through every frame.

Today, William shares lessons from his father’s humor and integrity, the heartbreak and resilience that shaped his mother, and how a young man in Vermont stumbled into acting and into purpose. He opens up about failure, rejection, and what it really means to “tell the truth for a living.”

My friends, if you have ever questioned your direction, your dreams, or your ability to start again, this conversation is for you. You will leave it reminded that authenticity still matters, that faith shows up when you need it most, and that no matter your stage in life, there is still time to move forward boldly, bravely, and with heart.

None of it really makes sense.

Last Thursday, a black SUV picked up the O’Leary family and transported us to the gorgeous Powell Hall in St. Louis, MO. As the car doors opened, flashbulbs blinded our eyes and cheers filled our ears. Beth and I hopped out, followed by our boys and our daughter. We stood together by the car, waved confidently as if we had done this before, then made our way onto the red carpet and into the world premiere of SOUL ON FIRE.

Let me explain.

This week, The Voices of SOUL ON FIRE series welcomes the actor tasked with the impossible job of being as charming, joyful, and good-looking as yours truly: Joel Courtney.

Known for his breakout role in Super 8 and Netflix’s beloved The Kissing Booth trilogy, Joel’s latest role in SOUL ON FIRE may be his most inspiring yet. With a gift for bringing heart to every role, Joel shines brightest when the story he tells can spark hope in others.

Today, Joel shares how a boy from Idaho chasing a $100 commercial ended up leading major films, why he said “yes” to sharing my story on the big screen, and the lessons he carried from portraying someone who refused to let tragedy define their life. He reflects on the heroes who shaped my journey, and invites all of us to recognize the quiet heroes shaping ours.

My friends, you’ll leave this conversation reminded that there is no joy without gratitude and that the stories we choose to live can inspire far beyond ourselves. If you need a boost of courage, perspective, or hope, this episode is for you.
