What happens when you mix Navy discipline, entrepreneurial hustle, and unwavering faith?
You get Joseph Blackman—a man who’s spent his life chasing purpose, building legacy, and staying grounded in God’s plan.

In this episode, Joseph and I sit down for a powerful conversation about what it means to keep showing up—as a father, a man of faith, and a leader. We talk about real growth, forgiving yourself, and how entrepreneurship becomes a refining fire when you're doing it for the right reasons.

It’s not a highlight reel—it’s real talk about how to keep moving forward when you don’t have all the answers.

💬 In this episode:

  • What military service taught Joseph about structure, stillness, and surrender
  • The role of faith in fatherhood, business, and healing
  • Why showing up every day without applause is the real work
  • How Joseph thinks about legacy and raising sons with intentionality
  • The difference between chasing income and living with impact

This one’s not about hype. It’s about depth. And it might be exactly what someone in your life needs to hear.
