Chef Steven sits down with his wise friend Amy Alexander, Executive Director of The Refuge Center for Counseling, for a rich conversation about boundaries, pace, self-knowledge, and even what it was like living in an abandoned nightclub among gangs in South Central Los Angeles in her early 20s.
There are SO many interesting stories and practical takeaways in this episode.
The Refuge Center for Counseling opened in December 2005 as the vision of its founders Amy Alexander and Jennifer Gillett. Amy and Jennifer had a strong desire to serve their area of residence —Williamson County, TN —which is recognized for its wealth, oftentimes overshadowing those who are in need. To live among great prosperity and to be in need is often to feel invisible.
The Refuge Center’s mission was clear from the beginning—to offer affordable, professional counseling services in order to empower, educate and support individuals, couples and families in need.

In this episode, Chef Steven chats with his friend Brad Herridge, pastor and lover of theology, the best man in his wedding, and his best friend from Baylor University.
Steven and Brad recorded this episode during a personal retreat where they smoked some fine cigars and got to reconnect after many years of living in different states.
If you’re interested in an unorthodox, out-of-the-box look at faith, this conversation is for you. Brad is constantly looking for new ways to experience God, to think about God, and to continuously evolve.
Brad has a Doctorate in Ministry from Truett Seminary at Baylor University as well as a Master of Divinity from Truett. He pastored churches in Waco, TX and McLean, VA before settling back in Texas as Senior Pastor of Ocker Brethren Church outside Temple, TX. We think you'll enjoy this unconventional convo.

2 oz Herradura Blanca or Casa Migos 1 oz Cointreau 1 oz Lime Juice ½ oz Agave ¼ oz egg white (optional)Shake. Salt rim. Done.

2 - 6oz frozen "Five Alive" citrus concentrate 2 - 3oz Triple Sec 2 - 6oz TequilaFill a blender with ice and the first batch 6oz of Five Alive, 3oz of Triple Sec, and 6oz of Tequila.

He’s the founder of a global photography movement, Help-Portrait, a mobile social networking app called OKDOTHIS, and an online teaching platform, See University. He lives in Nashville, TN, with his wife and four children, two of whom are adopted from Haiti.
