I asked Neal Gumpel what he’d tell someone who wants to write in Hollywood—and whether he’d discourage them. His answer: you don’t need to go to Hollywood anymore. There are plenty of other places to create, and in his view, Hollywood is pretty much dead.

What do you think—does an aspiring writer still need Hollywood?

When wrestlers tell you that wrestling is different depending on where you go in the world, Barry Horowitz says they’re serious.

Barry talks about his experience working for All Japan Pro Wrestling and how high the expectations were. If you went over there and didn’t know how to WRESTLE, you might be on the next plane home.

It wasn’t just about having a look or a character. They expected you to know your craft and be a great professional wrestler.

How do you know if the revelation you’re receiving is actually from the Holy Ghost—or if it’s just your own hopes and wishes?

In this Just Me listener Q&A, I talk about one of the hardest parts of personal revelation:

Sometimes, I don’t know.

Not every good feeling is necessarily confirmation. Sometimes recognizing revelation requires patience, experience, humility—and being willing to accept an answer that isn’t the answer we wanted.

Maybe the question isn’t always, “Is this the Spirit or is this me?”

Maybe sometimes the question is, “Am I willing to follow the prompting even when I’m not completely sure?”

People ask me why I do so many things.

Fatherhood. Faith. Wrestling. Podcasting. My career. Volunteering. Why keep adding things to an already full plate?

Because somewhere along the way, I stopped chasing a life that was simply happy and started trying to build a life that was meaningful.

And I’ve found that happiness often comes from doing things that have meaning.

I don’t want to get to the end and wonder what I could have done, who I could have helped, or who I could have become if I’d given a little more.

So when something matters to me, I go full boat.

I don’t want to leave anything on the table.

Because if you’re not living fully, what’s the point?

Fatherhood is wild when you really think about it.

You’re making life-altering decisions for your kids—often in real time—without a manual and without knowing how those decisions are ultimately going to affect them.

You can try your best. You can love them with everything you have. But you’re not going to get everything right.

Spencer Jones and I talked about something I’ve told my kids:

If you see something I did that you liked, emulate it. If you didn’t like it, do it differently.

Maybe successful fatherhood isn’t raising kids who do everything exactly like you did.

Maybe it’s raising kids who can take the best of what you gave them, learn from your mistakes, and become even better.

I’m grateful for every past version of myself.

Even the versions that made mistakes. The ones that struggled. The ones that didn’t have everything figured out. I don’t want to pretend those versions of me never existed, because they’re the ones who got me here.

Growth isn’t about erasing who you used to be. It’s about taking everything you’ve lived through, everything you’ve learned, and continuing to become.

Sometimes we say we’re “starting over.”

I don’t think we are.

You’re not starting over. You’re becoming someone you always wanted to be.

JUST ME #29: BECOMING — Faith, Fatherhood & Living Fully

A brand-new Just Me episode of The Edlow Podcast is live.

This one gets into a little bit of everything—faith, fatherhood, relationships, starting over, personal revelation, finding meaning, and what it really means to become.

We talk about questions like:

🔥 How do you know if it’s the Holy Ghost—or just you?
🔥 What’s the difference between starting over and becoming someone new?
🔥 How do you have faith when things don’t work out the way you hoped?
🔥 Why do I stay involved in so many different things?
🔥 What have my kids taught me about who I’m becoming?
🔥 And how do we stop allowing the negative voices in our heads—or the voices other people put there—to define us?

I’ve realized I’m not necessarily chasing a life that’s always happy.

I’m chasing a life that’s meaningful.

Fatherhood. Faith. Wrestling. Podcasting. Service. Relationships. Experiences. Growth.

I don’t want to leave anything on the table.

Because if you’re not living fully, what’s the point?

You can restart.
You can refocus.
You can become.

What if changing your life doesn’t require one massive decision?

Spencer Jones and I talk about how sometimes it’s the smallest changes that ultimately lead to the biggest transformations.

One better choice. One new habit. One step in a different direction.

Those little decisions may not feel significant in the moment—but stack enough of them together, and eventually you can look back and barely recognize the person you used to be.

You don’t have to change everything today. Just change something.

Neal Gumpel opens up about his experience as a Jehovah’s Witness and what happened when, at the end of his divorce, he was disfellowshipped.

According to Neal, being disfellowshipped meant more than simply leaving the faith. People he had known were no longer permitted to speak to him—even if they passed him on the street.

He also discusses how the rules surrounding interaction with disfellowshipped individuals have changed in recent years and the legal challenges that have surrounded the practice.

What happens emotionally when a community that was once a major part of your life suddenly goes silent?

What if some of the hardest things you’ve been through weren’t the end of the story—but the beginning of something better?

Spencer Jones and I talk about looking back at the struggles, disappointments, losses, and unexpected turns in our lives and realizing that, somehow, each one eventually led us somewhere better.

We couldn’t always see it while we were in it. Sometimes all we could see was what we were losing.

But with time came perspective.

The struggle changed us. It redirected us. It prepared us. And sometimes, what felt like an ending became the road to something we never could have planned for ourselves.
