The Journey of My Mother"s Son

My name is Dan Clouser. I am a podcast host, author and a speaker. I founded and ran a nonprofit youth sports organization for 30 years called the Berkshire Baseball & Softball Club, which later became the BIG Vision Foundation. We ran teams, tournaments and a 130 acre sports complex. I loved every second of what I did. I loved working with kids and teaching them leadership skills and life lessons through sports and community service. I thought that I would have died doing what I loved. Then in

This week we began our new journey. In this episode of The Journey of My Mother's Son podcast, I have another chat with my beautiful wife, Sandy about the first few days of our new journey. Leading up to our departure, it was a crazy, sometimes frustrating two weeks from our original settlement date on our house. Again, trusting the Lord’s timing isn’t always easy for me. However, during the extra 10 days that we had in Berks County from our original plan, we were able to spend some extra time

It’s hard to believe that it’s been roughly 18 months since I first ran the idea by Sandy that we should sell all of our belongs, buy an RV and travel the country. In some ways it seems like it was so long ago, yet in other ways it seems as though it was only yesterday. Once we put the house
