What Happens After the Dream? The Cost of Becoming with Flobo Boyce

Who Are You Without the Mask? When Shame Meets Grace with Wesley Farnsworth

What happens when the life everyone sees on the outside doesn't match what's happening on the inside? In this powerful episode of Balance & Breakthroughs, host Wil Singleton sits down with author, speaker, and podcast host Wesley Farnsworth for an honest conversation about faith, identity, addiction, shame, and the courage it takes to live authentically. Growing up as a pastor's kid, Wesley became what he calls a "master chameleon"—someone who learned how to fit in everywhere while slowly losing sight of who he really was. Behind the mask of being the "good Christian," he battled a hidden pornography addiction for nearly two decades, fueled by a deep-rooted need for approval and acceptance. Wesley shares his journey through secrecy, recovery, Celebrate Recovery, and the life-changing moment when he finally confessed what he had been hiding for years. Together, Wil and Wesley explore the difference between symptoms and root issues, why so many people struggle behind masks in both church and everyday life, and how vulnerability becomes the pathway to true freedom. They also discuss: • The dangers of living for other people's approval • Why addiction is often a symptom of deeper wounds • The role confession plays in healing and recovery • The unique struggles men face with authenticity and emotional health • How faith grows when we surrender control • Finding purpose in our pain and turning our mess into a message • Wesley's books The Blueprint of Becoming and When Faith Meets Fire • Why it's never too late to reclaim your identity and start again Whether you're wrestling with addiction, shame, people-pleasing, or simply feeling disconnected from who you truly are, this episode offers hope, practical wisdom, and a reminder that freedom begins the moment we stop hiding. Key Takeaway: You are not defined by your mistakes, your struggles, or the masks you've worn. Healing begins when you're willing to step into the light and embrace the person God created you to be. Listen now and discover what might be waiting for you on the other side of the mask.

In this powerful episode of Balance & Breakthroughs, Wil Singleton sits down with parenting coach, speaker, and author Sue Donnellan — also known as the “Reformed Yeller” behind Ask Mom Parenting — for an honest conversation about the chaos, guilt, control, and transformation that comes with raising children. After going from one child to four overnight with surprise triplets, Sue found herself overwhelmed, exhausted, and constantly yelling. But when she realized her words were no longer reaching her son, everything changed.

Whether you’re parenting toddlers, pre-teens, or teenagers — or simply trying to break generational cycles — this episode offers encouragement, actionable insight, and the reminder that perfect parenting doesn’t exist… but intentional parenting does. Listen now and discover how connection, leadership, and self-awareness can completely transform the culture of your home.
