In this ProActivators Micro Podcast, Gabriel and Scott Newson dive deep into the Family pillar—not as a feel-good idea, but as a responsibility that must be led with intention, humility, and structure.

Scott rates himself a 9 out of 10 in the family category, not because his life is perfect, but because he made a decision years ago to invest consistently in relationships that matter most. From repairing strained family dynamics through honest self-examination, to calling his parents every Sunday for over 20 years, Scott explains how relationships thrive when you put something into them.

This conversation also explores the often-overlooked idea that family is a team, and teams require meetings, communication, and accountability. Scott shares how church community became family when he lived far from home, how serving together builds deep bonds, and how vulnerability among men creates real strength.

As a newly married man preparing for fatherhood, Scott opens up about what it means to become the priest of the home—not through perfection, but through simple, repeatable habits like reading Scripture at the dinner table, praying together, attending counseling proactively, and investing in marriage before problems arise.

Gabriel adds practical wisdom from his own household, including the power of weekly family meetings—where victories are celebrated, improvements are addressed, and even finances are discussed openly to build responsibility and unity.

This episode is a masterclass in intentional family leadership. If you want stronger relationships, deeper connection, and a home built on purpose—not drift—this conversation will challenge and equip you.

In this ProActivators Micro Podcast, Gabriel walks Scott Newson through the Faith pillar—not as a belief system, but as a daily practice built through consistency, honesty, and accountability.

Scott openly rates his faith as a “5 out of 10,” explaining why spiritual growth isn’t a fixed score, but a moving scale that deepens over time. What follows is a powerful conversation about daily devotion, prayer, journaling, accountability, and how some of the most painful struggles in life can become the birthplace of the strongest spiritual disciplines.

Scott shares how his early, immature understanding of faith slowly matured into a disciplined, grounded walk with God. He explains the simple daily rules that have kept him spiritually anchored for over a decade—including a 3-minute minimum faith routine, daily Bible reading, gratitude journaling, and consistent accountability calls with other men.

This episode also dives into vulnerability and healing, as Scott reflects on overcoming addiction, the role of men’s accountability groups, and why suppressing emotions leads to distraction, anxiety, and unhealthy coping habits. Instead, he points to journaling, prayer, and honest conversations as the path toward spiritual health and emotional clarity.

If you’ve ever struggled with consistency, felt distant from God, or wondered why faith sometimes feels stagnant—this conversation will remind you that progress is built through daily obedience, not perfection.

In this deeply inspiring conversation, ProActivator host Gabriel Golindano sits down with former police chief, speaker, musician, and author Tim Eggebraaten — a man who transformed his life from law enforcement burnout into a calling of service, faith, and impact.

For nearly 30 years, Tim served his community in Minnesota, eventually becoming Chief of Police. But the same career that gave him purpose was slowly draining his spirit, distancing him from joy, clarity, and the man he wanted to be. So he did something most people talk about but never do: he changed his path.

Today, Tim travels the country spreading a message of hope, resilience, and proactive living through music, storytelling, and his signature philosophy:

“I Am, I Can, I Will.”

Together, Gabriel and Tim walk through the Six ProActivator Pillars — Faith, Family, Fitness, Finances, Focus, and Fulfillment — with raw honesty. Tim reveals how a silent retreat reignited his walk with God, how accountability made him a better father, how structure shaped his sons into men of character, and why fulfillment doesn’t come from success… but from service.

Tim’s life is proof that discipline can be loving, accountability is empowering, and fulfillment flows from pouring out your life for others. This conversation will challenge you to stop drifting, stop waiting, and start activating your life — with faith, with intention, and with the courage to change.

🔑 IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN:

• Why real change starts with personal responsibility
• How a silent men’s retreat changed Tim’s walk with God
• What it means to raise kids with structure, love & accountability
• Why fulfillment is rooted in giving more than consuming
• How to build family unity that lasts generations
• Why distraction kills purpose — and how to reclaim focus
• Why you must write your own rules for your life
• The real definition of a ProActivator
