Tim Doyle

Soulture explores healing, transformation, creativity, mindset, and the deeper questions of what it means to become fully alive. Through conversations with thinkers, athletes, artists, psychologists, and storytellers, the show is rooted in one core belief: the relationship with self is the most important to develop, but the easiest to neglect.

    #133 - Eben Britton - Leaving The NFL Was The Best Thing That Happened To Him

    Eben Britton is a former NFL offensive lineman, a second round pick who played six seasons for the Jaguars and Bears, turned author, yoga teacher, and coach who guides people through meditation, breathwork, and transformational work. Eben Britton spent his whole life chasing "there", an NFL dream he brought to life, and left at 27 with a shattered body and no idea who he was. In this conversation, we explore the value in "being here" rather than "getting there", the moment with his father that kept his dream alive, the day in the film room when he knew he was done, the descent into rock bottom, the Friday morning meeting that changed the direction of his life, and why he stopped trying to bury the warrior in himself. The dream was never the destination. It was who he became along the way.

    #132 - Dom Fusco - Why Achievement Won't Save You

    Dom Fusco is a faith driven health creator and endurance athlete in Austin who survived a sudden cardiac arrest at 24, flatlining for two and a half minutes after a mile run on a local track. Pain reveals who you are. Pride covers who you are. Dom Fusco learned both the hard way, numbing college injuries with drinking, chasing achievement, and trying every self-help practice imaginable while feeling more empty by the day. Then, on August 5, 2023, his heart stopped on a track in Austin. In this conversation, we explore pride as the root of every other struggle, why numbing pain ends in feeling nothing at all, willing versus unwilling suffering, and the faith that turned a second chance into a surrendered life. His story didn't happen to him. It happened for him.

    #131 - Owen Fitzpatrick - The Lies That Feel Most True Are The Ones You Tell Yourself

    Owen Fitzpatrick is a social psychologist, keynote speaker, and author of Inner Propaganda, a USA Today bestseller. Qualified as a hypnotherapist at seventeen, he has spent his life studying how beliefs are formed, working as a therapist and executive coach and traveling to North Korea, Afghanistan, and Rwanda to understand propaganda from the inside. He also hosts the Inner Propaganda podcast. Owen Fitzpatrick was fourteen years old when a single question in his own suicide note stopped him from ending his life, and he has spent every year since trying to understand why one sentence could change a belief that felt absolutely true. In this conversation, we explore why the brain works like a news channel with an editorial agenda, how feelings decide what gets to feel true, the rules for knowing when to trust your gut and when it is tricking you, why the inner critic is better understood as an inner dictator you can talk back to, the anti fragile identity story that turns every failure into training, and why believing what is useful can matter more than being right. It is a conversation about becoming less certain so you can believe in yourself more.

    #130 - Hal Elrod - He Died For Six Minutes And Woke Up With A Better Way To Live

    Hal Elrod is the creator of The Miracle Morning and the SAVERS routine, a keynote speaker, and the subject of The Miracle Morning movie. At 20 he was hit head-on by a drunk driver, died for six minutes, broke eleven bones, and was told he would never walk again. Years later he survived a rare and aggressive cancer. He is still here, and he is at peace. Hal Elrod believes happiness is a fleeting emotional state, but peace is an ever-present one you can choose. In this conversation, we explore the five minute rule that let him accept the unimaginable, why he asked the judge for a shorter sentence for the drunk driver who nearly killed him, the Jim Rohn quote that turned a financial collapse into the first Miracle Morning, the seventh S that has to break before the other six can begin, how he gave his cancer a one hundred percent survival rate, and why the best moment of your life is always this one. It is a conversation about what radical acceptance actually costs, and what it gives back.

    #129 - Frances Mei Hardin - What They Don't Want You To Know About Your Doctor

    Frances Mei Hardin is an ENT surgeon who left clinical practice, wrote the memoir Surgeon on the Edge, and now leads the Hippocratic Collective, a physician media company bringing the hidden culture of medicine into the open. Frances Mei Hardin spent her whole life becoming a doctor, and it built an identity instead of a person. As an only child, she grew up with her parents' expectation that she would become the doctor in the family. She survived a residency culture of bullying and hazing that left her wanting to die, before doing the work to untangle herself from medicine and leave her life as a surgeon. In this conversation, we explore what surgical training actually involves, the breaking point in the OR, learning to live in your body, turning to therapy and hypnosis, and how writing her story became a path to healing. Ultimately, Frances came to see that no experience is wasted.

    #128 - Baron Ryan - Chasing The Dream Might Be What's Blocking It

    Baron Ryan is a writer and filmmaker whose deadpan short videos built an audience of millions, and whose first feature, Two Sleepy People, was written, shot, and edited in three months. Baron Ryan believes the only thing that ever actually helped him was accepting that he is not special. In this conversation, we explore how giving up on a dream is what finally made it happen, why self-help books felt like doing the work without doing the work, how growing up homeschooled in Missouri with no cable built a pre-digital imagination, what writing three videos a day taught him that no writing class could, and why the weight you carry never gets lighter, you just get stronger. It is a conversation about making things honestly, and about what happens when you stop protecting the image of yourself.

    #127 - Nicky Cass - The One Fear That Runs Your Entire Life

    Nick Cassano (Nicky Cass) is a comedian and entrepreneur whose sketches reach millions across Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube. Being funny is what built his name, embracing fear is what built his life. Nick Cassano, known to millions as Nicky Cass, argues that everyone carries one core fear that quietly decides what they do and don’t do, and that facing it is what sets everything else free. This conversation explores how to identify that fear, what elite athletes taught him about falling in love with the process, the loneliness that comes with entrepreneurship, and what it actually feels like when fame arrives faster than you can process it.

    #126 - Tim Doyle - People Don't Need More Advice

    It’s never been easier to get advice. So why do so many of us still feel stuck? In this solo episode, I unpack the philosophy behind every conversation I have on Soulture and why I've realized I'm not interested in collecting advice. I'm interested in uncovering lived experience. I explore why stories move us more than expertise, why modern life has left many of us disconnected from feeling, and why the goal of every conversation isn't to teach you how to live, but to help you feel more alive.

    Some of the biggest changes in life don't begin with a plan. They begin with a feeling you can't explain. Ben Brummell shares how chasing a lifelong dream to Argentina ultimately led him somewhere he never expected. What followed wasn't the life he intended. It was the life he was meant to build.

    Two years ago, this podcast was just an idea in my head—a microphone, a computer, and my brother's bedroom. Last month, that same idea took me to Miami for my first podcast trip. In this episode, I take you behind the scenes of that experience and share what it taught me about confidence, momentum, and building something one step at a time. More than anything, this is a reminder that the hardest part isn't reaching a milestone; it’s having the courage to start. Send us Fan Mail Thank you so much for listening.

We explore why suffering can become a doorway to deeper awareness, how meditation creates space between stimulus and response, and why we're drowning in information but starving for clarity.

    Dacher Keltner explores why awe may be the most transformative emotion we experience. He explains how awe quiets the ego, reconnects us to meaning, and reshapes how we understand things like grief, spirituality, music, nature, and even health.

He explores how the internet reshaped modern creativity, why memes became a powerful vehicle for ideas, and why some of the deepest creative breakthroughs come through pain, stillness, and uncertainty.
