Ep. 52 - The 52 Project Conclusion w/ Landon Merrell

I can’t believe we made it! I’m wrapping this thing up the same way we started, with my brother Landon Philip Merrell!

In today’s convo, we reflect on the rollercoaster journey of creating 52 episodes of the podcast. We discuss the challenges and adjustments made during the process, as well as the completion of Landon's short film earlier this year.

We also touch on the excitement of Landon and his wife Katy, relocating to Tennessee and some even BIGGER NEWS you’ll just have to listen to the episode to find out :)

Landon shares his passion for storytelling and the importance of living a life worth telling a story about. We also share some plans for the future, including a new ebook, podcast, and creative projects in 2024!

To our wonderful listeners, thank you for your continued support as we navigate this beast called "The 52 Project"! We're almost wrapped up! I am preparing for my upcoming book "Freed Up to Build Up," set for release in Spring/Summer 2024, and excited to begin the next phase of the podcast and resources to help people. None of this would be possible without this community's kindness and encouragement.

In today's episode, I have my wife and best friend, Holly Ann Merrell, with me! This is technically her "2nd" time on the podcast, but the first go was with our 7-month old, Joy. Holly deserved her own episode without the distraction of our sweet little baby girl :)

We dive into the vulnerable and honest journey of Holly's personal growth and the transformation she's experienced over this past year! We also talk about the most important factor to our marriage relationship growing deeper and more connected than ever before!

Throughout the convo, you'll hear about the challenges we've faced—from discomfort in spiritual practices like praying together to dealing with daily conflicts, anxiety, and misunderstandings that many couples may find familiar.

Holly opens up about her path to transformation, the changes she's experienced from counseling to Crossfit, and her continued growth personally and in our marriage. But this isn't just a story about struggles; it's one of hope, learning, and spiritual and relational breakthroughs. We'll talk about how we've moved from awkwardness to deep spiritual intimacy through consistent prayer and the way we've seen faith transform not just our own lives but our marriage as well.

We've nearly reached 20 years of friendship (11+ years of marriage), and take a back at the last 48 weeks for Holly and an impactful year for myself. Together, we'll reflect on what it means to reinforce commitment in marriage, the support needed for growth, and the joy of looking forward to the future with hope and anticipation of what the Lord has in store for us.

In today's episode, I have my friend, Justin Wimberly, with me! Justin is a FORCE. Beyond owning and running a successful gym and training the next generation of collegiate and professional athletes, he is a devoted Husband and Father to four daughters. He is a man of passion and conviction! There aren’t many times you don’t know what he thinks or how he feels about something he cares about. I love that about him! He’s confidently and unashamedly HIMSELF wherever he goes. He loves the Lord and is unequivocally loyal.

Unfortunately, even loyal to a hot garbage team like the Green Bay Packers 😏⁠ ⁠

I’m so thankful for his friendship over these past several years and for the way he’s challenged and sharpened me as a man in so many areas! It’s been one of my greatest gifts in this season of life to have been invited into their Life Group six years ago! I know today’s conversation will inspire you and encourage you to take one step closer to getting freed up from what’s holding you back so you can build up who you were made to be! ⁠
