You Matter, I Matter
You Matter, I Matter is a podcast for honest, human conversations about trust, connection, and what it really means to belong.
In a world that often pulls us apart — from ourselves and from each other — this podcast exists as a gentle remembering: that we were never truly separate. Through raw, reflective, and deeply human dialogue, each episode invites you into a space where you don’t have to perform, fix, or strive. Just arrive.
Here, we explore what it means to matter — first to ourselves, and then in relationship with others. We speak openly about trust, commitment, growth, loneliness, belonging, and the quiet inner work of becoming more conscious without losing who we are.
This isn’t self-help, hustle culture, or quick answers. It’s a slower, more grounded space for reflection, truth, and real connection. A place to feel less alone, more seen, and gently called back to what’s true.
Because transformation doesn’t begin with fixing what’s broken.
It begins when we show up — in trust, in relationship, and in truth.
You matter. I matter.
And you’re welcome here.

Discovering Your True Purpose: A Journey Through Crisis, Identity & Growth | Stephen Whitton
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
We dive deep into a topic that affects every single one of us: purpose. What does it truly mean to live with purpose — and how do we even begin to discover it?
My guest today is Steven J. Whitten, a veteran of the automotive industry turned speaker, mental health advocate, and founder of MenAble. We talk openly about the difference between goals and purpose, why self-worth and identity are at the root of everything, and what it takes to let go of the limiting beliefs and expectations that no longer serve us.
Steven also shares his personal story of transformation — from decades of hiding his truth, to stepping fully into his power as a speaker, coach, and yes… even a drag queen. We also explore vulnerability, inner child work, and what it really looks like for men to embrace joy, authenticity, and connection.
If you're feeling stuck, unclear, or searching for something more, this conversation is for you. Let's get into it.
