  • Ep. 82 - The Hallways of Growth with Laura Beth Collinson
    2025/11/11

    In this heartfelt and powerful episode of The Finding Purpose Podcast, Adam sits down with Laura Beth Collinson — top-producing real estate agent with Carl Guild & Associates, single mother of two, and a fierce advocate for personal growth and self-development.

    Laura Beth's journey is one of grit, reinvention, and grace. From leaving home at a young age and finding her footing in the restaurant industry, to transitioning into real estate and entrepreneurship, her story reminds us that purpose often reveals itself in the moments that test our strength the most.

    She shares how early lessons in teamwork, service, and leadership shaped her ability to connect deeply with people — and how her own experiences with motherhood, loss, and rebuilding taught her to redefine success on her own terms. Her metaphor of "sitting in the hallway" — the space between endings and new beginnings — offers a profound perspective on healing, faith, and trusting the process of transformation.

    This conversation explores what it means to hold space for others while honoring your own evolution, and how to navigate seasons of discomfort with courage, empathy, and unwavering belief in what's possible.

    💡 In this episode, we explore:
    • Laura Beth's journey from the restaurant world to real estate leadership

    • The lessons in empathy, adaptability, and emotional intelligence learned through hospitality

    • Grieving old versions of yourself while embracing growth and change

    • What it means to "sit in the hallway" during life's transitions

    • Motherhood, identity, and rediscovering fulfillment after loss

    • Learning to let go of control and find acceptance in uncertainty

    2025/11/04

    In this week's episode of The Finding Purpose Podcast, Adam sits down with Ginger Richardson, founder of KIN Sauna — a mobile, wood-burning sauna and cold plunge experience redefining community wellness in Fairfield, Connecticut.

    Ginger's story is one of reinvention — a journey that threads together design, healing, motherhood, and the power of human connection. Originally from Canada, Ginger's life has taken her across continents — from the U.S. to Asia — before landing in Connecticut, where she discovered a calling far beyond business: creating spaces where people could heal, connect, and grow together.

    What began as a personal search for clarity and strength during a period of transition evolved into KIN Sauna — a sanctuary built on the belief that true wellness starts with courage. The courage to sit in stillness. The courage to embrace discomfort. The courage to show up as you are.

    In this conversation, Ginger opens up about entrepreneurship, faith, and doing the inner work required to lead an authentic life. From navigating divorce and rediscovering self-worth, to building a business rooted in community and purpose, she reminds us that transformation often begins where comfort ends.

  • Ep. 76 - Finding Purpose Through Culture and Cuisine with Marcel Robert
    2025/09/30

    In this episode, Adam sits down with Marcel Robert, a chef and entrepreneur whose story is shaped by cultural diversity, curiosity, and the courage to follow his passion. Growing up in Port Chester with a Dutch-Surinamese father and a multi-ethnic mother, Marcel was immersed in different perspectives from an early age. His father's example as an immigrant who built a business from the ground up instilled in him the value of hard work and accountability.

    Marcel shares how his academic path shifted from engineering to political science to anthropology, before he found his true calling in the kitchen. Cooking, he explains, wasn't just a skill — it was the one place that gave him energy, focus, and joy. That passion ultimately led to the creation of Belle Hill Dining, his private dining company, launched in the wake of COVID. Marcel reflects on the challenges of starting a business, learning patience when traction was slow, and building consistency in both craft and mindset.

    This conversation explores themes of cultural identity, resilience, and the importance of trusting your instincts when charting a new path. Marcel's journey reminds us that purpose often emerges when we combine our roots, passions, and persistence.

  • Ep. 75 - Maria Camila Medina on Resilience, Reinvention, and Leading with Faith
    2025/09/23

    In this episode of The Finding Purpose Podcast, Adam sits down with Maria Camila Medina—a Colombian-born entrepreneur, beauty queen, and the founder of MCM Marketing Firm. Her journey is one of resilience, reinvention, and unwavering faith.

    Camila moved to the U.S. at age 12, navigating culture shock, language barriers, and bullying while holding on to the deep family roots that shaped her. After earning a marketing degree and spending over a decade in car sales, she faced a devastating season of labor abuse that led to depression and financial struggle. But instead of letting it define her, Camila found purpose in starting over.

    In 2023, alongside her husband, she launched MCM Marketing, a bilingual digital agency helping brands grow through social media, SEO, and smart strategy. At the same time, she's built a platform that reflects her multidimensional story: crowned Reina Latina, author, advocate, and now soon-to-be mother.

    This conversation explores how faith, humility, and courage can turn even the darkest seasons into fuel for growth. From infertility struggles to cyberbullying, from corporate burnout to entrepreneurial rebirth—Camila's story is proof that purpose is found in persistence and perspective.

    🎙️ In this episode, we explore:

    • Growing up in Colombia and the challenges of immigrating to the U.S. at age 12

    • Facing bullying, identity struggles, and therapy as a path to strength

    • Overcoming labor abuse in the car industry and finding resilience in hardship

    • The birth of MCM Marketing and her vision to empower brands bilingually

    • Competing and winning Reina Latina amidst personal challenges

    • Infertility, pregnancy, and what motherhood means to her journey of purpose

    • Why faith, humility, and mentorship have been cornerstones of her growth

    This episode is a reminder that even when life breaks you down, purpose can rebuild you stronger.
