LKE 3.1 || When You Call the Cops for Help... And They Arrest You. From Handcuffs to Healing: A Surprising Conversation with My Friend Andrew What happens when you ask for help but end up in handcuffs instead? In this episode of Loving Kindness Everyday, I sit down with my friend Andrew for a deep and unexpected conversation about life, faith, and finding meaning in the hardest moments. We talk about what it means to transform pain into purpose, whether churches truly serve their communities, and how kindness can be a guiding force—even in places you wouldn't expect.   We're kicking off Season 3 of Loving Kindness Everyday, where we'll be focusing on the voices of Atlanta—both named and unnamed, famous and not-so-famous, and even some who'd now  rather their words not have been recorded. This season promises to be juicy, interesting, and always authentic. You can expect to hear a mix of perspectives and stories that will uplift, challenge, and inspire, guaranteed to be an unfiltered look into the heart. Let's go! In today's episode we meet my friend Andrew (aka "Mr. Kindness Costs Nothing"), together we reflect on personal stories of struggle, resilience, and the unexpected ways we learn to heal. Whether it's changing careers, dealing with loss, or questioning faith, this episode challenges the mind of the listener to see the good—even in the moments that feel impossible...or at least to release that it is possible for something good to come even out of what seems like a very bad situation at the moment.  Some of the Topics Discussed in This Episode: Faith, Religion & Personal Transformation The story behind changing my name to Kindness Calloway Inspiration on how to create a culture of kindness within the community of Atlanta (Keep Atlanta Kind) Questioning faith and Life: Is going to church an important part of faith?

Running In Slow Motion with Sidney & Tamra Smith You Hear Good Things podcast network Comedian Sidney Smith and his wife Tamra — a sharp-witted educator with a soft spot for flowers — team up to navigate life, goals, and culture at their own hilarious, at times, in-depth pace. They call it “running in slow motion,” and that pretty much sums up the vibe. This isn’t a marriage podcast (their union ranks a generous 5 out of 10, after all), but it is a refreshingly honest, smart, and funny take on relationships, ambition, and everyday chaos. From real talk to pop culture and unexpected interviews, it’s a joyride of relatable moments and laugh-out-loud observations. Explicit What You Thought ?
