The Rollercoaster Podcast – Details, episodes & analysis

This is the hardest episode I’ve ever recorded.

Marc and Holly Cram sat down with me to share the unfiltered, gut-wrenching story of losing their 13-year-old son, Beckham, in a tragic drowning accident. Holly opens up about the very fear she’d carried for years, her child drowning, becoming her reality. We walk through the moment it happened, the chaos that followed, and the sacred, soul-shifting days that came next.

But this isn’t just a story about loss. It’s about love, connection, and the invisible bridge between this world and the next. Marc and Holly speak candidly about how Beckham still communicates with them, how trauma freezes in the body, and how intentional healing has rebuilt their marriage and redefined their faith.

We also talk about Holly’s new course, How to Speak to God, a powerful invitation to reconnect with your own divine guidance, no matter your beliefs.

This episode will break your heart and put it back together in the most unexpected ways. If you’ve ever lost someone or wondered what healing could really look like… this conversation is for you.

Warning: This episode contains graphic discussions of child exploitation and abuse.

In this episode, I sit down with Paul Hutchinson, entrepreneur, undercover operative, and producer of The Sound of Freedom, for one of the most emotional and confronting conversations I’ve ever had. Paul opens up about the darkest corners of the world he’s entered to rescue children and the toll it’s taken on his life, his soul, and his healing journey.

We talk about the myths and heartbreaking stories he’s witnessed firsthand, and why awareness alone isn’t enough. Paul doesn’t shy away from the controversy; he addresses recent media accusations head-on and shares what it really means to put your life on the line to save others.

But this episode isn’t just about darkness, it’s about healing. Paul shares how plant-based therapy, spiritual surrender, and radical self-forgiveness changed his life, and how his healing retreats are now doing the same for survivors.

If you’re a parent, a truth-seeker, or someone who’s ever wondered how to protect your family in a broken world, this conversation is for you.

This is the most vulnerable conversation I’ve ever shared on the podcast. My guest, Liz Hartke, opens up about the day she gave birth to her stillborn son and nearly lost her own life. What unfolded was a series of medical oversights, a last-minute surgery, and a divine moment of surrender that changed everything. Liz shares the harrowing details of hemorrhaging alone in an ER, the nurse who saved her life by speaking up, and the spiritual clarity she gained when she thought she wouldn’t make it home to her children.

This episode is about more than trauma. It’s about faith in the fire, how God meets us in our darkest hour, and what it truly means to surrender your will. Liz’s story is a testimony to trusting the divine even when the outcome is unknown, and it will shake you, soften you, and maybe even help you find clarity in your own calling.

If you’re a mother, a leader, or someone wrestling with purpose or grief, this episode is for you.
