The Morning Dig Hosted by Chris Williams
What if five minutes could shift the way you show up for the entire week?
I launched The Morning Dig in 2023 as my first podcast. I wanted to create a space where I could share quick, meaningful thoughts to help you reset, refocus, and keep digging in, especially when life feels heavy or unclear.
Every Monday, I release a short episode centered on leadership, mindset, and personal growth. Some are less than five minutes, some are a little longer, but each one is rooted in real experience and built to help you move into your week with clarity and intention.
This podcast was born out of my own journey through burnout, realignment, and learning how to lead without losing myself. I’m not here to give you all the answers. I’m here to share what I’ve lived, what I’ve learned, and what I’m still working through.
If you’re building something meaningful and trying to stay aligned with what matters, you’re in the right place.
Start your week with purpose, not pressure.

The Power Of Integrity: Where Do You Draw The Line?
How firm is your line in the sand when it comes to integrity?
Welcome to another episode of The Morning Dig Podcast.
Today’s discussion dives into the power of integrity as a core value, a standard that defines relationships, community, and, ultimately, respect.
In this episode—the 5th in Season 4—we explore why integrity is not just a preference but a make-or-break line for building a healthy environment, whether it's in business, friendships, or family life. I'll share real-life examples from work and personal life, highlighting how acts that may seem small, like misrepresenting the cost of a protein bar, can erode trust and damage the community as a whole.
I’ll also reflect on the tough decisions that sometimes come with upholding integrity: setting boundaries with those who, knowingly or not, lack respect for honesty and fairness. It's about building an environment where everyone values honesty as deeply as you do.
If you’re ready to think about how integrity can shape your own relationships and strengthen your values, tune in to this episode. Together, we’ll dig into why integrity matters and how it sets the foundation for trust in every part of life.
