EP 75 FREE, Not Sober..23 Years Out Of The Pit

EP 75 FREE, Not Sober..23 Years Out Of The Pit

Today marks 23 years since I took my last drink. But this episode isn't about sobriety. It's about freedom. Twenty-three years ago I was overweight, addicted, depressed, angry, lost, and convinced my life was headed nowhere good. Today I'm reading portions of the alcohol chapter from my first book, I Asked God To Kill Me, and sharing the story of how God pulled me out of the pit and completely changed the trajectory of my life. This is not a story about willpower. It's not a story about self-help. It's not a story about becoming a better version of yourself. It's a story about redemption. It's a story about grace. It's a story about what happens when Jesus Christ gets hold of a broken man and refuses to let go. If you're struggling... If someone you love is struggling...If you've ever wondered whether real transformation is possible... This episode is for you. There is hope. There is freedom. There is another side to this fight. And if God can do it for me... He can do it for you. 📖 GET THE BOOK "I Asked God To Kill Me" This isn't a book sale. It's a rescue mission. Buy a copy for yourself. Buy a copy for a son.

EP 73 AGE GAP | The Truth About Our Relationship

What happens when a 54-year-old man and a woman 22 years younger build a relationship rooted in faith, discipline, leadership, peace, attraction, chemistry, friendship, and shared purpose? Apparently… the internet has QUESTIONS. 😂 So today, Jim & Allie finally address the elephant in the room: THE AGE GAP. In this episode of the Building & Becoming podcast, we talk openly about: ⚔️ why our relationship actually works ⚔️ emotional safety & masculine leadership ⚔️ chemistry vs stability ⚔️ public judgment & online opinions ⚔️ modern dating culture ⚔️ faith, discipline, and shared values ⚔️ what healthy love ACTUALLY feels like ⚔️ why attraction alone is never enough ⚔️ building a relationship that inspires growth instead of chaos This conversation is honest, funny, uncomfortable at times, and probably one a lot of people have secretly wanted us to address for a long time. And yes… we KNOW people notice the age difference. 😂 But what if relationships are supposed to be built on much deeper things than appearances, social media optics, or public approval? What if peace matters more than performance? What if the RIGHT person actually calls you HIGHER instead of pulling you backward? That’s what this episode is really about. If you’re tired of shallow modern dating culture… If you’re trying to build a stronger marriage… If you want stronger faith, stronger discipline, stronger leadership, and a stronger life… You’re in the right place🫵 ⚔️ JOIN THE BUILDING & BECOMING COMMUNITY: https://www.skool.com/building-and-becoming-3294/about ⚔️ APPLY FOR COACHING / SCHEDULE A CALL: https://calendly.com/jimmotz/schedule-your-call-with-jim ⚔️ FOLLOW ALLIE: https://www.instagram.com/alllligator_/ ⚔️ FOLLOW JIM: https://www.instagram.com/realjimmotz/ If this episode hits home… SHARE IT.
