OVER DEZE AFLEVERING
In this heartfelt episode of The Knowing Podcast, Christene Marie sits down with entrepreneur and lifestyle investor Justin Donald for a deeply honest conversation on what it means to truly know yourself—not through achievement, but through presence.
Together, they explore:
-Why emotional intelligence isn’t optional for leadership
-How to shift from performance to presence in your relationships
-The myth of "doing more" and the courage to just be
-Powerful metaphors about family, business, and what’s truly fragile
-The role of curiosity, faith, and identity in building a life that lasts
Justin opens up about fatherhood, boundaries, success, and the wake-up calls that made him reevaluate his priorities. Christene brings the emotional depth and clarity that makes this podcast a sanctuary for those hungry for both truth and transformation.
