ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
🎙️ I’m Here For It with Josh Ott and Friends
Real conversations. Real people. Real life.
Life is messy, meaningful, hilarious, and hard—and we’re here for it. Every episode, pastor, coach, strategy specialist, and author Josh Ott sits down with friends, thought leaders, and everyday people to talk about what really matters (and some things that don’t). From the deeply personal to the totally ridiculous, nothing’s off limits.
We laugh. We cry. We ask honest questions. We embrace the awkward. And through it all, we stay rooted in authenticity, purpose, and a whole lot of grace.
If you’re tired of the fake and craving something real—you just found your people.
