Recording Artist | Capitol Records
For the past several years, Phil has been walking alongside me as a friend, pastor, and counselor. Our once a week, Wednesday morning coffees have been an ongoing appointment on my calendar that we rarely fail to keep. Phil is both a sounding board when I need to express most anything, and a source of wisdom when I need a good biblical perspective. He has and continues to delve with me through childhood trauma, seeing unhealthy patterns where they may exist, and gently but with honesty call me back into the light when he sees me drifting. As I begin to walk through all of the trappings, snares, and false idols that exist in the music industry, Phil is there to ground me, help clear my thinking, and keep my focus on the important things, .. my relationship with God, and my relationship with the people in my life that matter the most. I could not recommend highly enough this good man to anybody in my position who is seeking to maintain a level head while navigating the whirlwind that is the music industry.

Hip Hop Artist | Independent
Reality Co. has been an amazing and safe space for me. It has allowed me a place to deconstruct (and reconstruct) my faith, while working through past trauma. Phil has gone above and beyond to do life with me. He’s invited me into his home and has been patient with unanswered texts and missed phone calls. I would recommend Reality Co. to any artist!

Recording Artist | Fair Trade Services & Centricity Records
For years now, Phil has been such a dear friend and a great resource for me. He is one of the few people on this earth who really KNOWS me. I think I was quick to authenticity with Phil because he was willing to let me truly know him as well. Whether it is Bible study over breakfast, or a late night phone call asking him to help me unpack a fight with my wife, he has always been there with a non judgmental ear and some great advice/questions that lead me deeper into who Christ really wants me to be. He is a gifted discipler of men and I’ve truly benefited from his gifts!

Pop Group | Sony Records, Independent
Phil has been not only a mentor but a friend that has our back thick and thin. In the industry of music, you come across people that “ Love” you but when “stuff” you know what I mean, hits the fan you’re almost unrecognizable to them. Phil has been the total opposite… He is a man that has backbone which is hard to come across. He is not only a trustworthy man of God but a good friend. I love that we can be ourselves with him with no judgement as we are all human with our own struggles and journey. It has been a journey for us in Nashville but leaving and coming home with a lifelong friend like him makes it all the positive. We love Phil!
Who are we?
Phil Covert
M.Div; BCMHC
After almost 20 years in pastoral ministry, I found myself at a crossroads. I was traumatized, anxiety ridden, questioning and didn't know where to turn with my struggles. When you live your life on a stage, safe spaces to process, struggle, and not lose yourself or your faith in the process are hard to find. As I began wrestling with this reality, I realized that I was not alone. Myriads of people struggle with many of the same questions, especially concerning their faith with no safe place to work through these questions. In 2021, I sought to create something that would bring together my degrees, passions, counseling, training and life/faith experiences to help those who struggle with their spiritual or emotional lives. Whether you are doubting God or doubting yourself, I want you to encounter another traveler who understands the struggle and has experienced a greater reality on the other side.
