The Carlos Whittaker Podcast

When I asked my friend Don Miller to come on the podcast, I expected us to talk about his new book, How to Grow Your Small Business. What I did NOT expect, was to spend the whole time catching up, talking about his faith story and how he went from being a Christian book author to a Business author.. He is SO smart and there are so many great nuggets to take in during this episode. I LOVED catching up with Don and I think this conversation will have you hooked until then end! _____ Purchase How to Grow Your Small Business HERE: https://www.amazon.com/How-Grow-Your-Small-Business-ebook/dp/B09831W8S6?ref_=ast_author_dp Follow Don on Instagram (@donaldmiller) HERE: https://www.instagram.com/donaldmiller/?hl=en _____ You can find me on Instagram (@loswhit) here: https://bit.ly/CarlosIGNotes Get tickets to see me and my friend Annie F.

HEY HUMAN HOPE FAMILIAAAA! Today we are starting a new series on Faith based on your feedback and what you wanted to hear! My faith and how I go about doing the work I do go hand in hand even if “faith” isn’t the centerpiece of my weekly conversations on Instagram and here… With this week being Easter, and faith such a cornerstone in my life, I figured what better time to dive in than now.  In this series we’ll have a wide spectrum of views, but this week I am doing something I haven’t really done before…  I am sharing my personal faith journey with you!! Like from Sunday School to questioning if God is even real to what I believe now as a member of a local church… We dive DEEP into my story. _____ Episode 044 - Dementia won’t steal my father’s story… with Fermin Whittaker  Thanks to our sponsors!!

I woke up this morning, after a lot of me talking on the internet for 3 days about the horrific tragedy that happened in my community here in Nashville TN on Monday at The Covenant School, and I had the thought… “There are LOT’S of opinions on what WE think they need. But how about asking them?” So I did… And they responded.  So my question to you is simple… Are you ready to step up for the parents of the survivors? Make sure you are following me on Instagram @loswhit as I give us marching orders this Monday… Love you fam… It’s time to care for the parents… Los Thanks to our sponsors!!!

Today I literally interview my mom and dad on the episode. The fact that my mom even said more than 2 words was miraculous because she IS NOT ME. And I'm so grateful she lent her voice to the show so you can hear firsthand from someone who is living their marriage vows unlike any other. And then you head from my dad. And then... And then we rewind 6 years and I play a clip from a message that my dad preached that was exactly what I needed to hear today. I also give you a list of things to NOT SAY and things TO SAY to a caregiver... Hope this helps... Love you fam...
