The Soil
Between Us.
House of Alysé believes transformation happens through conversation. Some conversations happen inside programs. Some happen from a stage. Some happen between two people willing to ask better questions. This is where those conversations live.
This is more than a podcast. It is a place where honest dialogue becomes meaningful change.
The Soil Between Us exists because meaningful conversation has the power to change how we see ourselves, one another, and the lives we're creating.
Hosted by Keith T. Avery and J. Alysé, this podcast explores identity, relationships, leadership, purpose, healing, psychology, legacy, and the conversations that transform lives.
Keith leads the conversation on leadership of others — influence, character, accountability, legacy. Alysé leads the conversation on leadership of self — identity, healing, burnout recovery, emotional intelligence. Different lanes. Same root.
"Soil is made of what came before — what died, what broke down, what got buried and turned into something that feeds the next thing trying to live."The Soil Between Us

Keith T. Avery
Keith T. Avery spent 23 years in the United States Navy before dedicating his life to what he now calls his truest mission: helping people discover their purpose, build the discipline to pursue it, and create a leadership legacy that outlasts them.
As a transformational leadership author, speaker, and mentor, Keith's work draws directly from his military experience, his personal story of resilience, and a deep conviction that every human being possesses the capacity to lead themselves well — and that this is where all other leadership begins.
Keith is the founder of the Purpose & Power leadership platform and the author of multiple books on discipline, character, and legacy. His speaking and mentorship reach individuals across industries who are ready to stop drifting and start building lives and leadership that matter.
His presence as co-host of The Soil Between Us reflects his belief in the power of honest dialogue to catalyze change — and his conviction that the conversation between psychology-based inner work and legacy-centered leadership is one the world needs to hear.
His Guiding Philosophy: Purpose & Power
Purpose gives direction. Without it, effort becomes noise. Keith helps people excavate their unique sense of calling so that every decision becomes an act of alignment, not reaction.
Discipline creates momentum. Transformation without structure is just inspiration. Keith equips people with the habits, systems, and accountability to turn intention into action — consistently.
Leadership multiplies impact. You can't lead others well until you've led yourself first. Keith's framework teaches people to lead from the inside out — beginning with character, expanding to influence.
Legacy ensures your life continues to speak long after you are gone. Keith believes every life is meant to leave something behind — something that builds, empowers, and endures beyond the individual.
