Life doesn’t send a warning.
Sometimes everything looks fine on the outside…
But on the inside? You’re exhausted. Overwhelmed. Not okay.

In this episode, I sit down with executive coach and author Craig Muster for one of the most honest conversations we’ve had yet.

We talk about burnout.
We talk about breakdown.
We talk about what happens when high performers quietly hit the wall.

And more importantly…
We talk about how to come back.
If you’ve ever smiled publicly but struggled privately — this episode is for you.

Because sometimes the bravest words you can say are:
“I’m not okay.”

MY NEW NORM Podcast- S6 E3
Episode: The Dismantling of Fatherhood
Guest: Pastor Chad Harris
Host: Barry Scott Young

In this powerful, unfiltered episode, Barry Scott Young sits down with Pastor Chad Harris to confront one of the most urgent cultural and spiritual crises of our time:
The silencing and sidelining of fathers.

Pastor Chad Harris, Lead pastor at Crossing Church- Chattanooga, Tennessee.
Church info: www.crossingchatt.com

Episode Purpose:
To call men back to biblical fatherhood, restore dignity to the role, and confront the silence of the faith community while culture sidelines fathers.

Show Notes:
The dismantling of fatherhood is not accidental.
It is systemic, cultural, and deeply consequential.

This is not about masculinity.
This is about responsibility, presence, and legacy.

What Does “Dismantling” Mean?
To dismantle fatherhood is to undermine, minimize, or remove the role of fathers from the family—emotionally, spiritually, and socially—until their presence feels optional instead of essential.

How Fatherhood Is Being Dismantled
1. Cultural Messaging
Fathers are often portrayed as unnecessary, incompetent, or even dangerous. Media narratives replace honor with humor and authority with ridicule. Over time, this reshapes expectations—especially for boys growing up without a model to follow.

2. Redefinition of Family
When fatherhood is redefined out of the family structure, children lose a vital source of identity and stability. Scripture consistently presents fathers as anchors of generational faith and responsibility (see Book of Malachi).

3. Absence Normalized
Father absence—whether physical, emotional, or spiritual—has become culturally tolerated. The consequences are measurable: fractured identity, increased behavioral struggles, and spiritual drift.

4. Silencing of Fathers
Men are often discouraged from leading, disciplining, or guiding for fear of being labeled harsh or outdated. The result is passivity, not peace.

You don’t erase men first.
You erase fathers.

The Impact on Children and Society
When fathers are removed:
• Homes weaken
• Children drift
• Identity fractures
• Faith becomes fragile

When fatherhood collapses, society doesn’t become freer—it becomes fatherless.

The Call Forward
The solution is not louder arguments, but restored responsibility.
• Fathers must return to presence, not passivity
• Families must honor the role, not replace it
• The church must speak clearly, not cautiously

A culture that doesn’t know God will always struggle to understand fathers.
But a generation without fathers will struggle to know God.

Fatherhood is not the problem.
Its absence is.

Podcast: MY NEW NORM Podcast
Episode: Season 6, Episode 2 — “Abandoned, Broken and Healed”
Guest: Roger Helle

PG- 13
SHOW NOTES
THIS IS NOT A SAFE STORY.

This is a REAL. RAW. UNFILTERED conversation about pain, war, survival, and REDEMPTION.

In this episode of the MY NEW NORM Podcast, Roger Helle shares a life story forged in abandonment, combat, and near death — and how God met him in the darkest moments and rewrote his future.

WHAT YOU’LL HEAR IN THIS EPISODE

ABANDONED AT THE START

Roger opens up about being abandoned by his parents, a wound that shaped his identity and fueled years of pain.

VIETNAM WAR – INTO THE FIRE

Roger served in the Vietnam War, where courage met chaos. He was severely wounded in combat and earned some of the highest military honors:

-Bronze Star Medal with Combat “V”

-Three Purple Heart Medals

-Multiple additional military honors

PRONOUNCED AS GOOD AS DEAD

Doctors told his brother he wasn’t expected to survive. What happened next will leave you speechless.

FROM BROKEN TO HEALED

Through faith, grit, and God’s intervention, Roger moved from physical and emotional devastation to healing, purpose, and mission.

TRAUMA DOESN’T GET THE FINAL WORD

Childhood abandonment. Combat trauma. Near death. None of it disqualified him.

YOUR “NEW NORM” CAN CHANGE

If you’re stuck, wounded, or barely holding on — this episode is for you.

WITH GOD, NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE

This story doesn’t point to human strength.

It points to DIVINE REDEMPTION.
