Ep 218: Life is Hard. God is Good. Let’s Dance. w/Brant Hansen, Part 2
Today I welcome back to the show Brant Hansen. He’s a best-selling author, award-winning syndicated radio host, podcast host of the Brant and Sherri Oddcast (my favorite podcast), advocate for children with correctable disabilities with CURE international, and he’s on the autism spectrum. He is hilarious and wise and witty and I just cannot believe I was able to sit and ask him questions for a full hour.
This is Part 2 of a 2-part conversation. Be sure to go back and listen to EP217 for Part 1 before you listen to this.
We discuss:
- What we pay attention to is what we are becoming
- How NOT having a big vision or big goal for his career has brought Brant peace
- The prayer Brant prays daily to help him create 20 new pieces of content for his radio show every day.
- A funny story about the time he caused a company-wide emergency by making toast.
- Jesus’ favorite subject
- Why Brant refuses to leave the faith
- What is on Brant’s to-don’t list
- Encouragement for overwhelmed moms
