What Would Dave Do?

In memory of my best friend—whose life was tragically cut short—I created this podcast to carry his spirit forward. He had a rare gift: he saw people deeply, asked thoughtful questions, and lived with quiet conviction. What began as a tribute has grown into something much more. Now two seasons and over 40 episodes in, this podcast has become a space for meaningful conversations—an invitation to pause, reflect, and reconnect with what truly matters. Through stories from people of all walks of life, we explore how we grow through challenge, find purpose in the everyday, and stay grounded in authenticity. It’s about laughter, learning, and looking inward. At the heart of it all is a question that continues to guide me—and I hope it speaks to you too: What Would Dave Do?
