The Tension
We all feel it—the tension that comes with change, growth, and big decisions. It’s the space between where we are and where we want to be.
These tensions aren’t just challenges to overcome; they’re shaped by conscious and unconscious decisions that rarely have clear right or wrong answers. In each episode, we explore topics of leadership, business, family, and life, unpacking the push and pull between how things are and how they could be.

The Tension of Nature and Nurture
Which carries more weight in shaping identity—nature or nurture? In this episode of The Tension, Travis welcomes Luke Winskowski to unpack the tension of nature versus nurture through the lens of Luke’s own story.
Adopted at birth and raised in a loving family, Luke reflects on identity, belonging, and the pull between inherited circumstances and self-determined paths. Together, Travis and Luke explore how faith, family, and formative experiences shape us—and why the tension between what we’re given and what we create might be the very thing that makes us who we are.
