This episode is brought to you by:

the fact that we want to keep podcasting and love doing this shit.

Steve & JP (and Eleanor) are back again with a little bit shorter than usual episode on this crisp, autumn day. The fellas return to the roots of the podcast by bringing back their book exchange, with Steve gifting JP "The Book of Secrets" by Deepak Chopra, all about unlocking the hidden dimensions of your life and the deep personal potential of yourself. Steve touches on his reading habits and his love for the literature of Wayne Dyer. We're going to keep this tradition alive every couple of episodes, stay tuned for more recommendations, reviews, and let us know if you have recs of your own!

They also get real about their views on religion, and how no belief system is perfect but that each one has it's own unique lessons to be learned from. JP even tells his favorite story from the Bible, "The Prodigal Son" with a different twist on how to be kind to both others and yourself.

This is our 12th week in a row of releasing a new episode of "Who Thought We'd Be Here?" and we are really proud of the consistency and dedication that we have been putting into these episodes. We couldn't do this without the people who listen every single week, and we'd love to hear from those who appreciate the content that we are putting out. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, and let us know what we can do in the comments to help you build a better self with our platform.

This episode gets pretty deep, so come along for the ride with us. This is Part 1 of a 2 part episode.

Steve and JP get candid about how communication is important in friendships and business relationships, and discuss how they maintain a balance for both in their day to day lives and careers. They also break down prioritizing goals that are within your control, as well as never counting yourself out when pursuing a dream that feels and seems impossible.

This episode required a lot of honesty from both Steve and JP in their own ways, and they get very real about how life changing it can be keep it real with friends in order to grow together. They make it a point to say that it's never too late in life to regroup and make a change in your life, and that sometimes you have to trust your gut when making a big decision instead of overthinking all the little steps that will come down the road later.

Stay tuned for Part 2 next Monday!!!
