Description

Grit & Grace is a personal growth and resilience podcast for people who are done being ground down by life's hardest chapters — and ready to rise. Hosted by master coach and leadership facilitator Pam Rader and embodiment coach Erin Payne, each episode explores emotional resilience, personal transformation, mindset shifts, and the courage it takes to reinvent yourself.

Joining them is Brian Thiessen, who brings a rare mix of psychological insight and straight-talking cowboy wisdom that has a way of cutting straight to what matters — and shining a light on the patterns most of us can't see in ourselves.

Whether you're navigating a major life transition, rebuilding after loss, or craving honest conversations about what it really takes to grow — this is your space. We laugh, we cry, we get real. From raw personal stories to expert interviews on resilience, leadership, somatic healing, and self-discovery, Grit & Grace helps you turn life's toughest challenges into your greatest catalyst for change.

This isn't a highlight-reel podcast. It's a campfire conversation — the kind that leaves you feeling seen, grounded, and genuinely ready to move forward.

With 85+ episodes, Grit & Grace has become a trusted community for anyone committed to living in alignment with what matters most.
