  • "Was Any of It Even Real?" The Power and Damage of Compartmentalization
    Jul 8 2025

    Have you ever wondered how living a double life is even possible?

    In today’s episode, we’re diving into a topic that comes up all the time in our coaching, course sessions, and personal conversations—compartmentalization. This concept, when misunderstood, creates so much confusion and disconnection in relationships. For many betrayed spouses, understanding it begins to bring clarity to the chaos. For many husbands, it’s a lightbulb moment—finally seeing how addiction was hidden, justified, and separated from the rest of life.

    We unpack what compartmentalization looked like in our own story—how I (Clint) could act out and still try to show up as a “present” spouse, while Charity was left wondering, “Was any of our past connection even real?” We also share the metaphor that helped us finally make sense of it all—why it was so damaging, and how true healing began when I stopped living in separate “drawers” and started integrating every part of my life under God’s design for authenticity and intimacy.

    If you’ve ever felt confused, disconnected, or wondered how someone could live a double life, we pray this conversation brings clarity and encouragement. There’s hope on the other side of compartmentalization—and freedom in being fully known and fully loved.

  • Raising Littles While in Recovery: How Defiance Might Be A Cry for Safety
    Jul 1 2025

    "Have you ever wondered how your healing journey might be affecting your kids?"

    In this raw and hope-filled episode, we open up about something deeply personal: how our past addiction and betrayal affected our son in ways we didn’t fully understand until years later. From missed bonding moments to outbursts, shutdowns, and total dysregulation—what we thought were just "strong-willed" behaviors were actually cries for safety. But here’s the good news: Jesus is in the business of redemption. And the healing we've experienced has radically changed the way we parent and connect with our kids. We pray this story brings you hope and helps you make sense of your own journey.

    We’re also giving a little peek behind the scenes—sharing about our family’s move back to California and some exciting ministry updates! Our couples course is being professionally filmed, our new his-and-her workbooks are on the way, and we’re launching a leadership network that could reach couples across the globe. Through it all, we’re reminded that when we create safety in our homes, we reflect the heart of the Father—a God who never gives up on us. “There is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.” (Romans 8:1). Not for you. Not for your kids. Not for your story.

  • Raising a Porn-Free Generation: What It Means to Be Parents Who Fight with Sarah Siegand
    May 20 2025

    Is protecting our kids from online dangers actually possible—or are we already too late?
    What if the solution is simpler, and more powerful, than we think?

    In this eye-opening episode, we sit down with Sarah Siegand, co-founder of Parents Who Fight, to talk about the urgent need for families and churches to fight to protect our kids in a hyper-digital world. Sarah shares her personal journey of discovering how early and easily children are exposed to pornography and how that launched a mission to help parents build safe, spiritually grounded homes.

    With over a decade of experience, Sarah unpacks the spiritual and neurological consequences of unchecked screen time, video games, and smart devices—and what that means for the next generation of Jesus followers. We dive deep into practical ways parents can set boundaries, partner with churches, and find like-minded families to stand in the gap together. Plus, she challenges church leaders to step into their God-given authority and take a bold stand in raising spiritual champions.

    This is a must-listen for parents, pastors, and anyone passionate about protecting the hearts and minds of the next generation.
