  • Summary

  • We all long to put our families center stage. Yet, in a world that competes for our time, attention, and identity, we often give our family the leftovers instead of our full, undivided hearts. Welcome to the Famous at Home podcast, with marriage and leadership coaches, Dr. Josh and Christi Straub.

    With a realistic, grace-filled look at the struggles families face, the Famous at Home podcast is like having a cup of coffee with authentic friends who just “get you,” yet with the practical and life-changing coaching strategies Josh and Christi use to help spouses, parents, and leaders stay emotionally engaged and connected to their biggest fans.

    With topics designed to help you set healthy rhythms between work and home, be fully present with your kids, and build a rock-solid marriage, the Famous at Home podcast will awaken your own heart and revive your family.

    Because we all need to find our way back home.

  • Relational Healing Through Grief and Loss with Laurie Lokey

    Relational Healing Through Grief and Loss with Laurie Lokey
    May 1 2025
    Sometimes people come into your life as mentors, but they also become dear friends. We met Bill and Laurie Lokey in 2018 and little did we know how Bill’s cancer journey would unite our hearts and deepen our friendship.

    As we continue our series on The People Who Shape Us, Laurie joins Christi to talk about the healing nature of relationships through grief and loss. No matter the loss in your life, whether it’s the loss of a spouse or loved one, or even the loss of a dream or deep relational hurt, we hope this conversation between Christi and Laurie encourages your heart.

    Yes, we’re wounded in relationship, but we’re also healed in relationship. Laurie and Christi spend time talking about specific ways to heal the inner wounded parts of who we are and how to navigate loss while living in relational joy!

  • The Friends Who Shape Us with Luke and Courtney Smallbone

    The Friends Who Shape Us with Luke and Courtney Smallbone
    Apr 23 2025
    Have you ever been walking through life when you happen to look over and see someone else walking in the same direction? It’s like your spirit shouts, “Oh, me too!”

    This is precisely what happened to Josh and Christi with their dearest friends, Luke (one-half of 4-Time Grammy Award winning For King & Country duo) and his wife, Courtney (founder of Technicolor Woman and author of Technicolor Woman Devotional).
    Their ensuing friendship is one they share about in this episode, because it’s a testament to how our closest relationships shape our character. And that’s not just a cute social media post; it’s a scientific fact. We truly are the sum of those we spend the most time with.

    As we continue our series on The People Who Shape Us, Luke and Courtney join us to talk about how trusted friends call us higher, the beautiful consequences of letting others in, and how our adult friendships even shape our children.

    Time Stamps:
    0:00 Introduction
    4:00 How we all became friends
    11:08 The character of friendship
    19:41 The call and consequence of deeper friendship
    33:32 The way adult friendships influence our children
    40:43 How true friendship pushes us to higher living
    51:34 How we experience God differently
