Live the Life Podcast with Toni Mattson
How can I feel closer to God? How can I feel inspired, encouraged, and fulfilled? How do I create more space in my day to live a life that really matters? A life with purpose and meaning? How do I create my peace and protect it? How can I grow personally and spiritually?
If these questions roam in your beautiful brain, then you’ve come to the right place.
Live the Life is a practical, roll-up-your sleeves, workshop-style podcast for women who yearn to live a more meaningful life. Each weekly episode is packed with how-to, step-by-step strategies to create the life you’re dying to live.
Empowering women to rediscover their passion, redefine what matters, and recapture time to live a life of purpose is MY passion.
I’m a Midwest gal, a speaker, writer, encourager, a peace-claimer, change-maker, and lover of all things God, family, horses and hope. I’m a founder of Trinity Equestrian Center - Wisconsin’s Leader in Equine Assisted Therapy, specializing in veterans with PTSD.
For two decades, I’ve traveled the US and Canada appearing as a panelist, guest, and key-note speaker on radio, TV and Podcast programs. I’ve spoken at colleges, seminaries, churches, at international conferences, and business development workshops. I’ve testified four times before the WI State Senate and Committee on Veteran Affairs on behalf of veterans with PTSD.
I encourage women to fearlessly ask the provocative question – "What is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life on?" And then I go about helping them answer and achieve it. No matter your season in life, what you do, or what you hope to do – I want this podcast to be for you!
We’ll cover topics like: faith, growth, peace, life, death, clarity, simplicity, health, purpose, Veterans, and oh my gosh — so much more! We’ll dive deep into things that bring value to our lives, help us focus and flourish, and set us up to live the life God created us for. And every last episode of the month is Q&A Day, where I invite you to send in their burning questions. I’m so excited you’re on this ride with me! So Mount Up ~ Put your heels into ‘er… this is the “Live the Life” Podcast!

Courage, Candor and the Fight to Keep Going — With Tracy LaTourette
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Some interviews stay safely on the surface.
This one didn’t.
Legendary Chippewa Valley radio host John Murphy and I sat down with Strength in Service keynote speaker Tracy LaTourette—and what followed was one of the most honest, wide-open conversations I’ve ever been part of.
Tracy shared the victories. The struggles. The pressure of pushing into places women hadn’t gone before. And what it has taken to keep finding her way through the hard parts of life.
Her candor was so refreshing. So, whether you’ve served in uniform, led others, fought your own private battles or simply wondered if you have what it takes for whatever comes next—there is something in this conversation for you.
This is only a taste of what Tracy will bring when she takes the stage at the 2026 Strength in Service Summit.
And trust me—you’re going to want to hear this.
