Episode 63

Keri Ford on Boundaries, Burnout, and Becoming Whole

What happens when success on the outside doesn’t match the peace you crave on the inside?

In this episode of The One Big Thing Podcast, I sit down with my friend and powerhouse leader, Keri Ford. Keri works with high-impact leaders, entrepreneurs, and parents to help them rewire their nervous systems, set healthy boundaries, and reclaim presence in a world that constantly demands more.

We dive into the hidden cost of always being “on,” the struggle of raising kids in a tech-saturated culture, and the weight leaders carry when their identity gets wrapped up in what they do instead of who they are. Keri doesn’t just share big-picture ideas—she gives us practical guardrails: no phones at the dinner table, paying attention to what we consume, and learning to ask better questions to truly connect with those around us.

If you’ve ever felt stretched thin by technology, distracted from the people that matter most, or caught chasing success that doesn’t satisfy, this conversation is for you.

Because at the end of the day, it’s not about being perfect—it’s about being present.

One Big Thing: Protect your input. Guard your mind, your time, and your presence—because the world needs the most authentic version of you.

Steve Campbell

Hey there — I’m Steve Campbell. I’m a husband, dad to four amazing kids, follower of Jesus, and someone who wakes up every day wanting to help people live with more clarity, courage, and purpose.

Life has taught me that faith isn’t just something you talk about — it’s something you live, wrestle with, and anchor everything to. My relationship with Jesus shapes how I love my family, how I lead, how I speak, and how I show up for others. Every podcast, conversation, and connection I make starts there — from a place of grace, humility, and hope.

My Heart Behind The One Big Thing
I started The One Big Thing podcast because I believe each of us is created on purpose and for a purpose. We all carry something unique that can make a difference — not someday, but right now. Through the stories, lessons, and conversations on the podcast, my prayer is that you’ll discover the spark God placed in you and feel encouraged to take your next faithful step.

I don’t have all the answers — but I’ve learned that when you stay close to Jesus, stay curious, and keep moving forward, amazing things can unfold.

Beyond the Mic
At home, I’m just “Dad.” My wife and our four kids are my greatest joy and daily reminder of what really matters. They keep me grounded, laughing, and trusting God in the middle of the chaos and beauty of everyday life.

I’m passionate about encouraging others — whether through a podcast episode, a post, or a conversation over coffee. I believe that hope is contagious and that small, honest moments can change lives.

What You’ll Find Here
This space is about real stories, faith filled encouragement, and practical wisdom for life and leadership. My hope is that you don’t just listen — you feel seen, challenged, and reminded that you’re not alone.

If you’ve landed here, maybe it’s not by accident. Maybe God’s nudging you toward your next “one big thing.” I’m glad you’re here — let’s walk it out together.
