Shows Main Idea – We have a new podcast, and I want to share with you the backstory why I had to rebrand and relaunch this popular and practical podcast.

Show Notes

What is a brand?

Coffee is the one-word metaphor that explains our worldview

1. Earth tones relate to every person.
2. Being relaxed and giving compassion are keys to soul care.
3. Our purpose is to deformalize counseling by making discipleship every person’s responsibility.
4. Coffee is a picture of two people sitting and talking over life challenges.

Practicing what we preach

1. My daughter doing the intro communicates
   • Relationship
   • Family
   • Transparency
   • Modeling
2. Our ministry crosses all demographic lines
   • Young
   • Single
   • Married
   • Elderly
   • And all ethnic groups

Redemptive use of technology

Find both podcasts across platforms

1. Life Over Coffee needed its own stream
   • Your Daily Drive is for articles
   • Life Over Coffee is for “on the fly” problem-solving
2. Your Daily Drive takes 8 hours production time
3. Life Over Coffee takes 2 hours production time
