Have you ever found yourself reacting bigger than the moment called for—and not really knowing why? Or maybe you’re trying to be the best parent, teammate, or leader you can be, but something keeps tripping you up.

In this episode, we talk with Mike Foster about the seven primal questions that shape how we show up in life and relationships. This conversation is full of lightbulb moments and honest reflections, helping you name the need behind the scramble, and find language for what’s been stirring in you for a while. It’s a conversation about self-leadership, grace, and the surprising strengths that come from our deepest needs.
