345 Cam Greenwood - Outside the Status Quo
August 04, 2021 14:55Without realizing it, we can easily slip into a way of doing life that’s overly predictable and monotonous. The status quo is far from the life that God wants us to live. When you’re feeling overwhelmed with the predictability of your own life, one of the most important moves you can make is to get outside of yourself. Cam Greenwood is a guy that’s going to push you to make that move. Cam’s the co-founder (alongside his wife, Elise) and chief pioneer of Zorali - the Australian outdoor b...
344 Scott Hamilton - Skating Into Olympic-Sized Joy
July 28, 2021 01:24< One thing that you won't miss if you're tuning in to watch the Summer Olympics is loss and disappointment, more so even than victory and celebration. The games, and the journey to get there, are filled with grief, setbacks, rejection, loss, and pain. The question for every athlete who experiences loss is this: what will you do with it? Will you allow it to define you and predict your path? The same question applies to us because no one escapes those types of experiences. The most recogni...
343 Tim Timmons - Discovering God Here and Now
July 21, 2021 15:58If you've ever found yourself with a full schedule but an empty heart, you're in good company. It's far too easy to get caught up in our tasks and commitments and miss out on the presence of God who's always with us. Tim Timmons is one of my friends who reminds me that God is always available in the here and now. After two decades of ministry and a lifetime of looking for Jesus, Timmons is no stranger to pain, cancer, sorrow, failure, joy and hope. “For most of my life,” Timmons shares, “...
342 Liz Bohannon - Building a Life of Purpose and Impact
July 14, 2021 15:03We all want to make a difference with our lives, to do something meaningful and leave a mark. But for so many people, they wait too long to be zapped by a specific, unique calling. If that’s you- you find yourself waiting and wondering, maybe on the verge of feeling like you’re languishing, then you’re going to want to meet my friend, Liz Bohannon. Liz Forkin Bohannon is the founder of Sseko Designs. Sseko is an ethical fashion brand that works to educate and empower women. By providing e...
341 Lysa TerKeurst - Seeing Beautiful Again
July 07, 2021 14:54It's far too easy to take things too seriously. It makes sense- life is intense, especially the long season we just went through. Even when we approach our dreams and ambitions- things that are actually designed to bring us more life, more joy, and more adventure- it's easy to slip into a mode of intensity that saps all the goodness from us. So what does it look like to return to joy, even amid working through the tough challenges and setbacks, too? I'm so happy to have my good friend Lys...
340 Todd Tilghman - On the Edge of Ambition
June 30, 2021 15:41Some of us can sense the moments or seasons when we know deep down that the path we're on is no longer working. Whether you'd describe it as a deep dissatisfaction or a draw towards something else, sometimes it feels like we're on the edge of discovering our next ambition. For anyone right now feeling like it's about time for a change, I can't wait for you to listen to Todd Tilghman's journey on the podcast this week. Todd Tilghman is a husband and father passionate about family, adopti...
339 Natalie Decker - Steering Towards the Finish Line
June 23, 2021 15:11It's tempting to look at someone who's been successful and assume it was an easy ride for them. For most people, though success didn't come easy at all. They pushed through a bunch of obstacles and kept persevering through a variety of setbacks. Confronting fear and anxiety, tolerating a lot of risks, maintaining a relentless focus on an ambition despite the odds or opinions- those are the ingredients that differentiate folks who make it and those who don't. And it's in those realities tha...
338 Michael W. Smith - Lessons From His Father
June 16, 2021 14:15With Father's Day this Sunday, this is your official reminder- it's not too late to send a gift! Honoring the dads, granddads, and father figures in our lives is a great way to not only acknowledge them but also to give a nod to God for placing them in our lives. I know that Father's Day can be a mixed bag. Not everyone grew up with a kind, loving dad in their lives. There are many dads themselves who struggle with regret or heartbreak because of the broken relationships they have with th...
337 Christine Caine - The Toll of Being on the Front Lines
June 09, 2021 14:58For those of you who live a life of constant confrontation- whether it's with the status quo or injustice, you know what it's like to push through. You've developed the fortitude, strength, and resilience to keep moving and keep fighting. But, have you developed the "unforced rhythms of grace" you need to continuously restore your soul, too? As we transition to summer, this is your official invitation to take care of yourself. We all need you to be at your best and have everything you need...
336 Carey and Toni Nieuwhof - Setting Absurd Expectations for Marriage
June 01, 2021 23:16Nobody stands at the altar on their wedding day and vows, "Hey- let's just shoot for typical, ok?" Rather, wedding days are filled with hope and imagination for a beautiful life spent together. But then real life happens. Marriage is certainly not an easy endeavor. And rarely does anyone get taught how to navigate the complexities of marriage, like navigating conflict, financial stress, career struggles, or raising kids together. With all of that, you throw in a global pandemic on top o...
335 Michelle Williams - Getting Real and Sorting It All Out
May 26, 2021 14:18There are so many ways to get distracted from pursuing our big ambitions. Some of them, though, are much more serious than others- like depression and other mental health challenges. We can't separate our mental health from the rest of our lives- it's the foundation for everything. That's why it's so important to develop habits of getting real, being authentic and honest with friends, and seeking help when you need it. This week, on the Dream Big Podcast, we're engaging in a serious disc...
334 Michael Hyatt - How to Win at Work
May 19, 2021 14:04We talk often about what we do for work- it's one of the most common questions and points for conversation. But rarely do we talk about how we work, which matters as much if not more than what we do. When we're not approaching our work with thoughtful intentionality, when we aren't allowing others to speak into our approach, our calendars, and our commitments, we miss the opportunity to experience more joy, meaning, and impact. So this week I wanted to spend some time inviting Michael H...
333 Bart Millard - A New Stride
May 12, 2021 13:56As we’re shifting gears from pandemic to post-pandemic, it’s important to be mindful of the commitments we make. We have an opportunity to create our own rhythms, and the battle for our ambitions will be one on the spaces of our calendars. What are you certain about? What matters most to you? What does it look like for you to create your commitments based on those bigger things, and create a new stride as the world reopens? One of the friends who’s inspired me over the years the most to ...
332 Ginny Owens - Listening to Another Voice
May 05, 2021 14:18As we try to think through shifts in our careers or moving forward on our ambitions, nothing will debilitate us faster than focusing on the roadblocks or distractions. Our human nature will draw us to see things that just aren't there, or to miss the important pieces altogether. That's why I asked my dear friend, Ginny Owens, to shed some light on what it looks like to listen to another voice. Blind since age three, Ginny’s unique approach to music and books on darkness, life, and faith h...

April 29, 2021 20:39When we started the Dream Big Podcast, our hope was to provide some inspiring and empowering content for a few of our friends who’d participated in past Dream Big workshops.

330 Greg McKeown - Clearing Out the Nonessential
April 28, 2021 15:46It's far too easy to get busy and focused on things that don't matter. Whether it's a Netflix binge, a relentless pursuit to get your inbox down to zero, or trying to be all things to all people, distraction can plague your priorities. As my friend Greg McKeown says, most things are trivial, and very little is actually essential in our lives. But figuring out what that is and how to make it effortless to focus is a huge challenge. That's why I wanted him to come onto the podcast this week...
