What if the words you use every day are quietly sabotaging your success? In this transformative Dropping Bombs episode, Beth Townsend and her son Rhett crack open their new book, There’s More Than One F-Word, showing how language shapes success and identity. From Beth’s “sink-or-swim” start to decades interviewing people about purpose, and Rhett’s sales hustle, we get a no-excuses framework: words matter, intent matters, and free will beats waiting for a sign. If you’ve been stuck between faith and the real world, this is the bridge—own your words, own your outcomes.
Then we get practical and personal: their alternative F-words, plus the hard truth that “life isn’t fair”…so plan the tough conversations, stop peace-keeping and start peace-making, and make two lists: who you are and who you’re not. If you’ve been outsourcing your future to fate, here’s your wake-up call to choose better words, take bolder actions, and reclaim success one F-word at a time.

| 0:00.0 | Why do you think it offends people? Are you offended by that word? I know this is going to sound crazy. That's where the word came from. We gave it the meaning. Words go deeper than the way they sound just simply in conversation. The sooner you accept that, you're 10 steps ahead of other people. How we speak to people, how we speak to ourselves internally, results in how we live our life, where we go, |
