Conversations with Buddy

Shawn joins me to talk about physical workouts, spiritual workouts, accountability, discipline, and living with no excuses

Hebrews 12:11 reminds us that discipline isn’t always enjoyable in the moment, but when we allow ourselves to be trained by it, it produces the peaceful fruit of righteousness. 🌱

🎸 Work Hard, Have Fun & Build Great Relationships

Shawn’s journey is a great story of faith, family, entrepreneurship, and humility. From a stellar childhood and growing up in church to becoming a self-taught guitar player and launching Abbey’s Carpet Care in April of 1991, Shawn shares the lessons he’s learned along the way. 🎸🏡 His philosophy is simple: work hard, have fun, earn respect, and value your team! Competition can bring out the best in us, but the people we surround ourselves with can make all the difference. 👊

🔥 Change Your Environment, Change Your Life

We also talk about the importance of changing your diet, building multiple income streams, adding value, and putting yourself in an environment that produces discipline. Accountability matters! Sometimes the best thing we can do is stop making excuses and ask, “What’s next?” 🚀 Shawn also brings plenty of humor to the conversation—after all, sarcasm is his love language! 😂

✨ Shine Your Light!

Most importantly, this conversation is about people, faith, and making a difference. Relationship over rules. God loves people anyway. The world needs us! ❤️ Don’t be afraid to tell your story, bring your best actions, attitude, and affirmations—and most of all, shine your light! ✨ This is one conversation you won’t want to miss!

About Buddy Puckett:
Buddy Puckett has been in the mortgage and finance space and mentoring men for over 25 years.  A mentoring opportunity all started when he first began in the mortgage industry in 1998, when he began to mentor a younger guy who happened to be married.  This person was not making great choices and it was sadly affecting his marriage.  We all are 1 decision away from something really dumb, so accountability became something Buddy knew he needed as well.  Buddy’s wife, Shawn, suggested he start a podcast in 2022 to share the stories of people who have struggled,
failed, overcame by realizing the life of love, joy and peace is only available through a relationship with Jesus Christ!

“Jesus said to him, ’I am the way, and the truth and the life; no one comes to the Father except through Me’.” John 14:6
