There are conversations… and then there are the ones that stay with you.
This is one of those.

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Dan Peters—psychologist, executive coach, author, and host of Make It a Great One—for a deeply honest and hope-filled conversation about the power of purpose, presence, and embracing your own evolution.

We talk about:

• Letting go of expectations and choosing alignment over achievement
• Why slowing down might be the most productive thing you do
• Parenting with awareness and heart
• What it means to live from your values in a world that often tells us to hustle harder

Dan shares the story behind his own podcast, his path to creating impact through quiet leadership, and how “making it a great one” can be a way of living, not just a catchy phrase.

If you’ve ever found yourself wondering, Am I doing this right? Am I becoming who I’m meant to be? — this conversation will remind you that you’re not alone.

And that’s the heartbeat of Hope Comes to Visit: real stories, tender truths, and reminders that even in the in-between, you’re not alone—and transformation is possible.
