In this powerful episode of the Wholehearted Leadership podcast, host Lantz Howard sits down with John Marsh, co-founder of Marsh Collective and a seasoned real estate investor whose work has stewarded over $2 billion in assets. But behind the business success is a remarkable story of personal transformation, resilience, and redemption.

John opens up about his journey from rebellion and addiction to reconciliation and renewal—both in his marriage and his mission. He shares how a spiritual encounter in the midst of adversity led to a profound shift in his life, eventually reconciling with his wife, Ashley. Their story has since helped over 200 couples find hope and healing in their own relationships.

Throughout the conversation, John and Lantz explore:

• The role of faith and intentionality in overcoming hardship
• The power of love and vulnerability in building strong marriages
• Why understanding your and your spouse’s communication styles (thinker vs. feeler, present vs. future) matters
• How creating emotional safety helps couples dream and reconnect
• John’s vision for transforming small towns by generating social, spiritual, and economic capital through real estate and mentorship

Whether you're seeking renewal in your marriage, leadership in your community, or hope for your own redemption story, this episode is a heart-opening invitation to lead and live with intention.
