Proximity with Ken Joslin

A Grow Stack Drive (GSD) Podcast

Your life doesn’t move by intention. It moves by proximity.

Proximity with Ken Joslin is the flagship podcast from Ken Joslin, founder of Grow Stack Drive (GSD) and the CREATE Conference, the leading faith-based entrepreneur conference in America.

Based on Ken’s upcoming book, The 14 Frequencies of Proximity, this podcast explores how the people you surround yourself with, the rooms you enter, and the voices you trust determine the direction, momentum, and outcomes of your life.

Each episode delivers practical, no-fluff conversations around leadership, faith, discipline, relationships, health, business, and finances—through the lens of intentional proximity.

Drawing from Ken’s journey from full-time ministry to elite real estate and building the GSD ecosystem and CREATE Conference, the show equips leaders and entrepreneurs to stop drifting, take responsibility, and curate environments that produce clarity, alignment, and lasting impact.

This isn’t motivation.

This is alignment.

This is intentional growth.

If you’re ready to change your circle, elevate your standards, and build a life of purpose and significance—this podcast is for you.

Change your proximity.

Change your frequency.

Change your future.
