<p><b>Welcome to </b><b><em>Beyond the Surface</em></b><b>—the podcast where real growth begins with real conversations.</b><br> I’m Michael A. Benton, and every week we dive into the deep stuff—mindset, purpose, parenting, failure, healing, and how to rebuild your life when things fall apart.<br> This isn’t surface-level motivation. It’s about transformation—from the inside out. If you’re tired of settling and ready to live with intention, you’re in the right place. </p>
