Summary

Life’s biggest challenges can become our greatest catalysts for growth and in this conversation with Josh Trent we explore just how transformative that process can be. Josh shares his deeply personal journey over the past three years — navigating fatherhood, relationship shifts, and the relentless self-inquiry that comes with embracing change. We dive into emotional regulation, conscious leadership, and the tension between providing for others and staying connected to ourselves. Through candid reflection, we uncover how personal struggles — whether in love, family, or purpose — can lead to profound healing and a reclamation of sovereignty.
