In this heartfelt and inspiring conversation, we are joined by Robert Bass—pastor, entrepreneur, former tennis athlete, and personal trainer with a deep passion for helping others grow into their full potential. As the author of Hidden Fruit, Robert’s journey from overcoming personal struggles to embracing God’s blessings provides a powerful reminder that the life we seek is often hidden in plain sight.

He offers valuable insights on making time for God, even amidst the busyness of life, and discusses how to find peace and joy during trials.
