BEING With The Browns
Formerly called "Building With The Browns", Hosted by Eric and Tacondra Brown, BEING With The Browns is more than a podcast, it’s an invitation to slow down, show up, and live fully in the moments that matter. Rooted in real conversations and unfiltered experiences, this show is for couples, creatives, and everyday humans who are tired of performance culture and ready to build and embrace a life of intention. We share the real talks, quiet revelations, belly laughs, and in-betweens that shape who we’re becoming. Whether you're in a season of discovery, traveling through transition, or simply learning to be present with your person, this podcast is your permission slip to stop striving and start being. In each episode, we explore topics such as: The Art of Being: Let go of who you thought you had to be and embrace who you actually are in life, love, and leadership. Meals & Moments That Matter: Discover how food, conversation, and everyday intentional moments can bring you closer together. Travel With Intention: Join us as we explore the world (and ourselves) through faith-led adventures, cultural connections, and slow travel stories. Love Without the Performance: Real talk about marriage, vulnerability, and staying connected in a world that values image over intimacy. From Chaos to Clarity: The messy, beautiful, behind-the-scenes of building a meaningful life without the script. Join us on the journey as we talk life, laugh often, and remind you that being is more than enough. Subscribe now and lean into the beauty of simply being, together.
