Fight Me A podcast about humor, self-improvement, and sometimes crossing the line. I’m Jami - a coach, a mom, and someone who’s not afraid to call out the nonsense or the source of it (which is usually me). This is where unfiltered conversations meet personal growth and just life in general. Plus, my fearless husband, Chad, will jump in the ring along side of me. He will take punches. And hopefully dish them out. We’ll take swings at limiting beliefs, family dynamics, cultural chaos, and any ...

What if the most generous thing you could give isn’t money, but a chance? We kick off with playful family sparks, music versus screens, Christmas movie sacrifices, and The Office episode hot takes, then pivot into the heart of our series: how sharing talent, skill, and influence can change a life. Olivia walks us through her path into sound enginee…

What if the way you think about people when they’re not around is shaping you more than it affects them? Jami goes solo to dig into generosity of thought, assumption, and hope, showing how small shifts in our inner dialogue can create huge changes in peace, relationships, and results. This isn’t about pretending everything is fine; it’s about build…

A spilled cup sets the tone, and then we zoom out to the big stuff: a pristine Superman No. 1 found in an attic selling for over nine million dollars, a Titanic pocket watch stopped at 2:21 a.m., and what those artifacts teach us about how time preserves what we protect. From there, we get practical about generosity that isn’t about money, it’s abo…

Want to see what generosity actually does when it lands in a real place with real needs? We open part one of our series with a candid look at life as support-based missionaries in Guatemala, how monthly gifts keep our family afloat, how a pandemic turned highways into ghost roads, and how food bags and open doors led to something bigger than we ima…

What do your weekend rituals, first concert, and secret talents reveal about you? We swap questions and pull back the curtain on our lives, sushi Saturdays, VIP movie nights, and that post-gym coffee that sets the tone. We talk about why a crowded city walk can reset a week, how sports now serve as a light backdrop rather than the main event, and w…

What if disappointment isn’t the end of the story but the beginning of a better one? We dive into the messy, everyday realities of marriage and dating, where unspoken expectations clash with real people and real seasons, and offer a path from silent frustration to practical hope. Instead of chasing an idealized script, we show how to translate “the…

When did “I’m so busy” become the default greeting? We’re pulling that thread and rebuilding something better: meaningful margin you can actually feel. We talk honestly about why saying no is hard, how guilt warps our calendars, and what it takes to turn life from reactive to intentional. Along the way, we share funny high school excuses, night-shi…

The most honest moments in parenting show up where control ends and trust begins. We sat down to map that messy, meaningful stretch between childhood and early adulthood: teens who want to self-solve, parents who want to protect, and the space where both can grow. From chaotic Guatemalan roads where our daughter learned to drive to the quiet car ri…

What if your calendar told the truth about your relationships, who fuels you, who drains you, and where you’re giving your best hours? We dig into a practical, honest audit of your friendship circles and show how small, clear boundaries can protect your peace without shrinking your heart. Between bursts of dad-level humor and a few life-in-Guatemal…

A big dream should energize you, not paralyze you. We open with a few playful “would you rather” sparks (Oscar or Olympic gold? Unicorn horn or squirrel tail?) and then dive into the real engine of progress: breaking a bold vision into the next doable step. Jami shares a raw, practical account of navigating five knee surgeries over two years, from …

The scariest health problems rarely shout, they whisper. We open up about family history, cholesterol that crept higher than expected, and the mental gymnastics that make us delay tests we know we need. What starts as playful would-you-rathers turns into a grounded look at resistance to change, why exercise alone didn’t move the numbers, and the si…

Are you driving your life or just along for the ride? This powerful question sits at the heart of our exploration into the stark difference between living a default future versus creating a generative one. Like Bill Murray in Groundhog Day, many of us find ourselves stuck in cycles we didn't consciously choose. We wake up one day wondering how we e…

Guatemala's Independence Day traditions stand in stark contrast to what most Americans might expect. While the United States celebrates with brilliant fireworks displays, Guatemalans mark their freedom with torch-running ceremonies and the playful (if somewhat aggressive) throwing of water bags at runners. The symbolism runs deep – flames of freedo…

After 18 years of marriage and raising two teenagers while runnin…

In my first episode I explain briefly why I was prescribed Ativan and why I decided to come off. First thing first, I am not a doctor. I am a registered nurse and I solely share my experiences during my withdrawal from Ativan. …
