The Family Readiness Podcast
Real Talk for Parents Who Refuse to Outsource Leadership
If you're tired of weak parenting advice, culture-soaked schools, and Sunday sermons that don’t touch the real threats your kids face—this podcast is for you.
Hosted by Rick Seigmund—former federal agent turned family protector—we don’t tiptoe around the truth. We expose the digital traps, cultural lies, and soft parenting trends wrecking faith-based homes, and give you the tools to fight back with strength, strategy, and biblical clarity.
- Here, we talk about:
- Locking down devices without losing your kid’s trust
- Raising kids who know who they are (and whose they are)
- Family Resilience and Stewardship
- Real World physical safety and security in a world where your kids are the target
- Building a home that doesn’t bend to culture—it transforms it
This is the place for parents who know that being "nice" isn't enough.
We're not playing defense—we're training up warriors.

EP 18: Am I To Become a Man (Joshua Carter’s Wake-Up Call)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Joshua Carter is a good man.
He works hard.
He loves his wife.
He shows up.
He goes to church.
But one ordinary day exposes a quiet truth he can’t ignore anymore:
he’s been managing life — not leading it.
In this story-driven episode, we introduce Joshua and the Carter family, and we follow him through a moment every man eventually faces:
Am I actually becoming the man God made me to be — or am I just staying comfortable?
This episode marks the end of Season One and sets the stage for what’s coming next:
• January: What is a Man?
• February: Becoming a Better Husband
• March: Leading as a Father
This is not about guilt.
It’s about ownership.
It’s about determination.
And it’s about the quiet moment where a man decides to engage.
Joshua’s story is just beginning.
So is this next chapter of the Family Readiness Project.
