Everyone, you are listening to the Tudor Dixon podcast and this is going to be an episode where I'm sort of gonna gush and be weird because we have Candace Cameron bure on and she is like a fan favorite in our house for sure. If you don't know, she's DJ Tanner from Full House and Fuller House and we love you. So thank you for coming on today.
Candace Cameron Bure
Oh thanks. The It's a pleasure to be On. And thank you for that very sweet introduction.
Tudor Dixon
But, I mean, it really is to us. It's so precious to be able to talk to you, because you are not only a great role model, but you are a great role model in life. My girls go to Christian school. It's really important to me that they have good Christian role models. And really, even though that wasn't, like, a real common theme in Full House and Fuller House, the values were so strong. It was such an amazing gift to. To all of us.
Candace Cameron Bure
Yeah, you know, the show itself was a gift to me. Not just to be on a television show, but you never know when you're an actor, especially a child actor, and you're auditioning for the next thing and you're hoping you get a part on something and never did. I think that not only would I be on this television show that would run for eight long years, but one that would never be off the air in over 35 years. I mean, it's never been off the air, and one that carries such deep family values to it. And that's really why the show has stood the test of time, because all of the things that were on the show, they don't change even as the years change. It doesn't change much in raising kids and what. Just parenting with good values. So to be a part of something so special, it shaped me, of course, but it feels so good to be a part of it. So I love when people are still loving and watching the show. I will always be grateful.
Tudor Dixon
So we watched Fuller House. The girls. My girls watch Fuller House. And then they were like, wait a minute. We have to watch the. How it all started, the original Full House. So then we had to kind of, like, go through all these different channels to make sure we watched as many as we possibly could. But that had. But that had to have been. It had to have been an interesting time to come out with a show where three men were helping together to raise kids, because it was really a strong message that dads are so important.
Candace Cameron Bure
Oh, yeah, it really was. It was a very unconventional show at the time. It premiered in 1987. So, yeah, it really was about that. Not all families have a mom and a dad, and, you know, in this case, the mom had passed away, and he gets his buddy and his uncle to come help raise them. But those were the strengths of the show and also why they related to so many people over the years, because there's lots of kids that, whether they're adopted or their grandparents are raising them, or aunts and Uncles are raising them. Families look very different and can look different. And it was just a support group for a lot of people.
Tudor Dixon
Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I think even now, like you said, it passes the test of time. Because even now, as a parent, I think it's interesting to me to have watched it as a kid, and now as a parent, you see all the lessons that you didn't realize you were getting as a kid. What was it to be the kid in that show? How is that different from your home life? I mean, because I think growing up, we're all wondering what's it like to be a child actor. You have kind of two families.
Candace Cameron Bure
Yeah, that's true. You do. You know, our Full House family was very much a real family. We still are today. And so it was a beautiful family to be a part of. And it felt different enough as a kid being on tv because even though I was going to work every day, it's like I was. I'm the baby of my real family. I'm the baby of four. And here I got to be the big sister of two other two sisters. And, I don't know, it all just. It was a great experience. It was wonderful. We had such good people on the show. And so I look back with fond memories again, grateful for the messages that the show had, but that was just my life. I kind of don't know how to compare it to someone else's, because those are my experiences. It's what I know. And they were all happy and positive. So for that, I'm really grateful.
Tudor Dixon
Your brother was on TV as well at the same time, right?
Candace Cameron Bure
Yes. On Broadway.
Tudor Dixon
Was there any competition there?
Candace Cameron Bure
No, no competition at all. I kind of. In the weirdest way, I just thought, oh, this is what happens to every family. If you're actors, you. You were on a TV show, so my brother was on one, I was on one. I did not realize kind of how lucky we were. And that doesn't happen very often. I think of Jason Bateman and Justine Bateman. They were probably the other sibling duo that were on television shows at the same time, but it was pretty special. But no real competition. When we would come home from work, my brother was just my big brother and I was the little sister. And we left work. At work, it was all about family because we have two sisters in between, and it was about doing homework and chores and family life.
Tudor Dixon
That's so interesting. So you now have this massive staying power. Obviously, we talked about the fact that there was Fuller House, and that was the same. I Mean, the same people came back, which I thought was amazing. How often does that. First of all, it doesn't very often happen that you have a sequel of a series that works so well. But it was very. I mean, so it just drew us in. But you have this massive staying power, I think, with women and like I said, with my girls with kids, because we look up to you and we see you as this really powerful figure. You're going on your first tour. Tell us how that came about and what you. What you hope to accomplish.
Candace Cameron Bure
I know. I feel like I should. I'm. I should be a musician or a comedian and have great jokes or sing you a song. But you know what? I absolutely love connecting with the audience. And I think that stems from being on Full House because we taped in front of a live audience every week. And I love social media for that reason, because I. I like to connect with people. And I have had this podcast now, the Candace Cameron Bury Podcast, where we deep dive on these topics that like parenting or the Bible, and we spend a lot of time and have deep conversations. And what. My takeaway from that is learning from the audience, not only what's resonating, but where are the problems and where can we find solutions and where can I help guide people? And so that interaction has been amazing. And I thought, how can we expand that? And the way for me to take it is to actually connect in person with people. And so I thought a live tour would be a fun idea. I think, like, a girls night out is always fun, although you can bring your husbands, but it's geared towards women. And we're just. We're gonna have a great night. It's gonna be. We're gonna have fun games and prizes. We're gonna talk about Full House and Fuller House and all that kind of stuff, but we're gonna take it a little bit deeper and talk about women's. Talk about faith. And I just wanted a time to be a time of refreshment, but really connection in a selfish way, because for me, it's about experiencing all of you in a real, intangible way. And not just over the TV screen, the computer screen, or a theater screen, which I enjoy doing, too. But I want to connect with you in real life.
Tudor Dixon
I think I saw you say faith, Faith, family and fitness. Faith. And I think like a TV family and fitness. And then. But you also have this devotional out right now, and you've. And this isn't your first, but I. I wanted to ask you about this one. It's Rise and renew. And it's a daily devotional, it's a 30 day journey. And it is for people who feel weighed down by failure, grief or disappointment. Like, how did, how did you decide that was a critical message to bring? Because I do think that right now there is a lot of, there's a lot of people that feel like they're just not where they, they need or they just experienced a loss, something like that.
Candace Cameron Bure
Yeah, well, we're all gonna experience grief and loss in our life. And this devotional came out of the pandemic, it came out of COVID And I think a lot of us had experienced not only grief and loss in that, but also just, I think a turning point in our soul of what is most meaningful and what gives us hope and what gives us strength. And so that's where the devot came out of. And I am a, I mean, I'm a woman who is, I'm going to share my faith and the hope that I have in the Gospel of Jesus Christ. And so my, my hope is that in looking through scripture, reading through the Bible, connecting with God's word in daily, over, you know, a few minutes every day really sets your path on. It sets your day on a path forward with hope. And that's why I wrote it. And so I love the Bible. I talk a lot about reading the Bible, sharing the Bible and a devotional is an accompaniment to that. And it's an easy way to incorporate scripture, but focus specifically on the verses that give us hope and strength and know that our worth and our value come from God, not from our circumstances, not from the people around us, from validation, from our job or our work. What we're doing, how much money we make, it isn't anything like that. And so this is just part of what I, what I do. I just love this is a moment.
Tudor Dixon
Where you've seen, because we're hearing so much, that young men are coming back into the church and that where men are really seeking out God, but it seems like we're still kind of lagging with women. Is that something that you feel like you can kind of propel that revival among women in this tour and that's what you're hoping to see?
Candace Cameron Bure
Well, I sure hope so. I hope I'm just a tiny little cog in the wheel that plants another seed that there's hope in Jesus. And I see a revival of faith. I think we all do. All over the country, especially from very recent events, people are reevaluating, people are looking at the political climate they see something different. And the people that have known this, that value their faith, are becoming bolder in their words. And my hope really with the tour is to also embolden women to not be shy and to not take a seat, but to be open about sharing where hope comes from and about all about Jesus.
Tudor Dixon
I think you're going to find that you're going to have young women who are very curious because we've so we've been going around Michigan and talking to young women, talking to groups of young people and the young women and I've just noticed in the last six months have really started to step forward and say, I wanna say it's okay to be looking for marriage. And I think how did we get to the point where they're taking a leap to say that? You know, they're afraid to say that on a college campus. And this idea that they know that, I mean we're built for that, we're built to look for another person. But we have this culture that's been telling people you don't really need that, but it's okay to want that and to need that.
Candace Cameron Bure
Yeah, yeah. It is a sad, it is it a sad place to see that women are afraid to say that. And I mean I have a daughter that's in her that she just got married and she's in her 20s. All three of my kids are in their 20s. And it, you know, I think every generation will say it feels like a different time and this time is almost going back in time because we've gone so far to the left to teach that what our real and true values are meaningless and worthless and they don't matter anymore. We've gotten so far away from it that now I really do believe that we're seeing a whole group of young people say, hey, I want to go back to the way the grandparents did it. And it feels almost old fashioned to them. And yet it is the way in which we were built and made. And so we do need strong voices. Every generation needs to lead each younger generation. And that's as we mature and become women. The Bible calls us to do that, to lead the younger and teach the younger generation. And so helping be a voice in saying like it's okay, yes, you should value that, want you that and why? Why? Because the Bible says so. And let me show you where it does. And I think that's always the best piece of advice, at least that I've given with my kids in the way that I've parenting that this isn't just what mom says because I believe it's TR right. It's because God says this. And let me show you why and where God says it.
Tudor Dixon

Is that what you hope that people will get out of even your books? Because I think a lot of parents are of parenting. Like, how do I. This is. I'm frustrated because you should be doing this. This is what the Bible says. But I don't know exactly how to point all of that out. I do think that there are a lot of parents that are like, gosh, I want to know those verses. I want to know how to have that conversation. Do you feel like you're bringing that to people?
Candace Cameron Bure
I do. I really do. I think that a devotional book is an easy way to break down parts of the Bible. I don't think that you should stop at a devotional book. I think the most important thing is to read the Bible. That's why it's a good accompaniment. But it's easy in that you can. It's sectioned out into verses. You can easily reference those things. So I hope that I'm giving tools to women, but that they based on using a devotional to see how applicable God's word is and how it changes hearts. And when you pray through, you know, God can absolutely move Mountains, you might not be able to, but God can. And when you understand the hope in that, I couldn't. I wouldn't want to live a day without it. And so I really do hope that tools like the devotional will give women easy access to say, oh, I can do this and I can memorize a verse and I can start to understand this because that's the biggest place in parenting is starting with yourself. Because we can talk to our kids all day long, but if we are not walking the walk, if we are not practicing what we preach, our words are meaningless to our children.
Tudor Dixon
I saw you recently say something about you were when you remembered your mom going through menopause and having a hot flash. And, and I. And as you're talking about parenting, I'm thinking about this because I'm thinking about how your kids are growing up and they don't. You sometimes forget they don't know as much as you know. And you pointed out so well that we are at a different phase in life, in health and everything than our kids. And that is also a challeng. I don't know how it is for men, but I think that for women you are going through a different life change and you're trying to parent at the same time. How do you talk women through that? Because I thought it was so sweet that you were like, I look back on that now and go, I made fun of my mom for having hot flash. And I'm like, oops, you know, I know oops, but we all do that. Yeah, right, Exactly.
Candace Cameron Bure
I know the things I put my poor mom through and laughed at her. It's so sad. And now I'm here and I'm in it and doing it. But you know, know, I think that an area that our country has failed at as a whole and maybe the whole world, I don't want to even blame our country is women's health when we get into the middle age of life in our 40s and 50s, I had Dr. Tabitha on the podcast and she's a triple board certified medical doctor, obstetrician, gynecologist. And, and she was explaining how many in all different ways where the medical field has gotten things wrong, where they've course corrected and she's very much into integrative medicine now, but has all of the knowledge from her certifications and I just think that there's so many tools out there for women of our age that my mom didn't have and they're finally coming to the forefront and hopefully we're going to get, get more of those things covered by our medical insurance that are not covered right now to help women go through middle age and menopause, perimenopause, menopause, all of those things. And so I'm really hopeful. I am not a doctor. I am. That's why I have knowledgeable people on the podcast to, to bring us this information so that we can have a better experience. But I'm just, I'm grateful that a lot of women my age now are talking about it. Yes. And it doesn't matter whether it's entertainers or a podcast public figure or it's. It's just women. You're a teacher, you're a stay at home mom. What, whatever. It's. We're just talking about it now because we want to have a better experience and we have the tools to do that. But not all the information's been given. So.
Tudor Dixon
Yeah, it's been really taboo. It's like a thing that you, you shouldn't mention. And I do think that having people like you, having folks out there on the podcast and other women who have really been embracing like, we're going to talk about this, we're going to say that this is hard. Being a woman can very challenging and we should actually be able to talk about it, be allowed to talk about it. And I love that you talk about that. You, but you, you have a unique position that you've always kind of been able to cover the tough situations, even when you were young and you were talking about, you know, bullying and kids growing up and weight issues and, and hair. You have always absolutely had the best hair. And we're all jealous of you, just so you know. I'm sure you've heard that a million times. But you told a story recently about Seventeen magazine, which I thought was fascinating because I think we look at you and we're like, she's always had everything and been, you know, everybody loves her, but just that internal struggle that even for you, there were times that were hard that we don't really, we don't see because we think that when you're a celebrity, everything's easy. But you had very real experiences that women still experience. Tell us a little bit about what that was like.
Candace Cameron Bure
Yeah, I mean, it's always interesting. It's a little challenging to grow up in front of millions of people, especially in your most formative years, and you're going through awkward stages of life and you hit puberty and things change and you're growing, you're maturing and to do that in front of a lot of people can be challenging. And at the same time, just like anyone else, you, at least for me, it's like you, you want to be the popular kid, you want to be the pretty one when you're 15. And when you're in that, in the industry, in Hollywood, I still had those kinds of dreams and goals too. So to be on the COVID of a magazine, I actually thought I had a shot at it because I was on this really popular television show. But to be told that I wasn't a fit, that I didn't look like the other girls that they had on the magazines, and maybe it was even my goody two shoes personality, I don't know, maybe I wasn't cool enough to be on it. I mean, I can think of it in all different ways now as an adult as to why I, I was told no twice, but that reflection, always, you know, it, it took a hit on my self esteem. And so you go through those challenges, it kind of doesn't, it doesn't matter whether it's in front of a whole lot of people, it feels the same in front of the camera, or if you're a high schooler going, going through school and, and being told mean comments by, by kids who are just bullies.
Tudor Dixon
And that's something that our kids see in a different way because there is so much ability to get to your kids self esteem, whether it's social media, through the phone, you have bullying at school. That's why I thought that story was so important, because we look at you now, we're like, I mean, we looked at you then and we thought, oh my gosh, she's amazing. We look at you now and you're telling this story and we hear this and you're so, you've done such great things. You're such a successful follower of the Lord. And I think that to me is the most beautiful part of it. Because through that, instead of going to a dark place, you kept your focus on God. And that is what I want my girls to hear. You know, this is hard and at that time it's crushing. But you've always kept your focus on God. How do you do that in an industry that is not God focused?
Candace Cameron Bure
I, I'm so grateful that the Lord grabbed ahold of my heart at a young age. And I have always wanted to honor him and please him in all the things that I do even, even as a teenager and, and as I've gotten older, that relationship's only grown stronger. And as I read the Bible and, and, and really know who God is and know his character and all the good that he has for me that may not show up on, on this earth. They might be stored up in heaven, my treasure up there. When I get to go spend the rest of my life with him and have. But I. But I have that eternal focus. But I only know those things because I spend time with him and spend time in the Word. And so that, again, is what I value most and want to share most, especially within my career, is that I realize that people do listen to me. I'm grateful because they liked me on the television show or they like my movies or my Christmas movies, whatever the reason. But those are things that God gave me to flourish in which I'm grateful. But the real purpose of my life is to share the gospel with people and share the hope in Jesus Christ. And so I just do that by always remembering what my real priority is in life. All the other things are external ways in which I get to share Christ with. But I keep my eyes focused on Him. And then that helps me navigate and navigate through the rocky seas of life and also make the hard decisions because I've already drawn my lines in the sand. I know the majority of the answers to the tough questions. So when I get put in awkward situations or uncomfortable situations, I already know what God's truth says. So it becomes easy just to stand on that principle and not wait.
Tudor Dixon
I think that when I, as I was watching some of the things that you've been talking about, it's powerful to hear you talk about your body and taking care of your body, especially as we're aging. And I know you're talking about women's health, but I feel like you really talk about it throughout your life that you are able to go to scripture and say God is clear about the importance of taking care of your body. And I think that's. To me, that's important because it's a hard conversation to have because we've been told, you know, don't ever tell somebody that they have to take care of their body. But you also, because you don't want to body shame. But you do it in such a great way where you say, it's not about that. It's about taking care of the temple that God has given to you.
Candace Cameron Bure
Yeah, that's exactly it. I mean, we, we are not valued more by the number on the scale, what we weigh or what size clothing we wear. It's not about that. But God gives us a body to live in. So that we can fulfill our purpose, our purpose in glorify God in all the things that we do. And we know that we need to be healthy in order to do that. So I really encourage women to just get out and walk and move so that you can have longevity. I mean, we're never. We're not promised the days of our life. Only God knows what those numbers are for us. But we certainly shouldn't sit around and do nothing just to. Just to have that be taken away from us quicker because we didn't do the good things that we know we should for our bodies. So all of this, like, I love fitness, I love good health, but it's not about trying to get people to look or weigh a certain way. It's just about truly taking care of your body. Because if you are a Christian, if you believe in Jesus, you house the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit lives inside you. And that's what being a temple is. It is literally a dwelling place for the Holy Spirit. And so if I know that God lives in here, man, I clean up my house before my guests come over. I tidy up. I want it to look good before they come over. How could I not want to take care of the inside if I'm housing God?
Tudor Dixon
What a powerful message. Absolutely. Absolutely. That's what I love about the conversations that you have. That's what I really think that people need to hear. When we heard you were doing a tour, I'm telling you, the house was like, oh, my gosh, it was so exciting. But that's the part of it that I believe is so important, is to have those conversations with women that are. Are. You are valuable, and God thinks you're valuable. And you show God that you love him and you. You believe he is valuable, too. I think that this revival that we're seeing is really God seeking out the one, you know, leaving the 99 and we're seeing him seeking out. And that's when I heard that young, that young woman say to me, I want to know more about God. I want to know about relationship. I want to look forward to marriage. I was like, he is working so hard. And I've had so many people say, we feel so divided right now. And I say to them all the time, you feel divided right now because so many people are turning to God that the devil has to work a lot harder.
Candace Cameron Bure
It's so good. It is so true. I feel so hopeful, though. The more people that I talk to, the more people that even come up to me while I'm walking through the airport or I'm walking to a restaurant. I'm surprised in that it's big. Been a lot more people that will say to me like thank you for your faith, thank you for standing up, thank you for being bold. And while I'm grateful for that and encourage, it just means that they are being emboldened. They hear it, they see it, they're being inspired that they want to just live out their life. That's a little bit bolder, a little less apologetic for offending people.

It's not like any of us. I mean some people do maybe, but I, I don't want to go into the world looking to offend people.
Tudor Dixon

The U.S. electric grid is approaching a breaking point. As demand soars from data centers and home energy use, our aging infrastructure can't keep up.

It's American made, stored on site and all was powering homes and businesses with cleaner, reliable energy that doesn't depend on the grid or the weather.

Okay, so that's why I love the tour. You have four stops. Let's talk about it. Because I looked it up just before I got on here and I was like, oh, my gosh, there's almost no tickets left. So you start in Atlanta, it's in. No, November 20th through the 23rd, and you end here in Grand Rapids, right?
Candace Cameron Bure
I do, yes. And there are really only there. There might be a few tickets left in Anderson, Indiana, and there are tickets left in Grand Rapids, but that's it. The other two cities have been sold out. All of the tickets across the board in all four cities have been sold out, but still a handful left in Michigan. So if you're in the area, we would love to. I would love to see you.
Tudor Dixon
Definitely. Oh, my goodness. God is good. I'm so glad that the other ones are sold out. I know Michigan will too, because as soon as people hear that you're here, I'm telling you, you are well loved. Okay. And the devotional, I want to talk about that Rise and renew when that comes out on the 11th.
Candace Cameron Bure
November 11th. Yep, it's out. You can pre order it now. It'll probably come to you a week early. I just got my print about a week ago, so I know it's in stock. Like, it's hitting all of the shelves. So you can go ahead and order that now.
Tudor Dixon
I. I saw you go to Target. I will just send them this. I saw you go to Target and you were wearing the Target. I love the fact that people genuinely asked you, like, you work there.
Candace Cameron Bure
Oh, my goodness. They did. It was the cutest thing. And one guy, I thought he was just staring at me so weird. And he was, like, hovering over me, staring. And I was like, I'm sorry, can I help you? And I forgot I was wearing the Target T shirt and he just genuinely wanted to know where he could buy this specific toy for his grandson. And I was like, oh, let me help you with that. Hold on.
Tudor Dixon
That is so. It was really. That's another thing I want to say, if you aren't on her Instagram, go. Because it's just you do so many cute things. You are so funny. And I thought that was so you. You were just so humble there. You didn't even. It was like, no big deal. You're like, yes, let me help you. Even though I love at the end, you're like, I'm literally not giving anybody good advice. I know the best part. I'm like, well, they're gonna look back on it and go, oh my goodness. I think I talked to Candace Cameron Bure. So that was awesome. Thank you so much and thank you for being on the podcast today. Everybody go out and get your tickets and you know, we hope we will be.
