Have you ever found yourself living in survival mode? From week to week, or event to event, getting ahead feels overwhelming and dreadful. So instead of being strategic or planning ahead, every day feels like chaos just trying to keep your head above water!

This conversation invites you to take a breath, look around at your current reality, and prepare for the season ahead. Boundaries, delegation, planning, and rest all play a role in helping you to thrive (not just survive) in every season of ministry.

What does it look like to hold both joy and sorrow at the same time? In this episode, we sit down with author and therapist, Nicole Zasowski, to talk about the tensions of hope and heartbreak, grief and goodness, and the power of celebration in the life of a leader.

Nicole shares encouragement for women in ministry who feel the weight of the world or the fear of the unknown, reminding us that joy is not a denial of reality but a choice rooted in truth. We explore how to lead when negativity surrounds us, why celebration carries deep theological significance (and isn’t just “elementary”), and what practical rhythms can help us cultivate joy in our everyday lives.

Whether you need fresh hope for your ministry, courage to face change, or simply a reminder that joy is available here and now, this conversation with Nicole will leave you encouraged and equipped.

Unfortunately, there isn't a rule book or a one-size-fits-all method of knowing when to stay and when to leave a role, church, or job. So how do you know when it's time? And if you're called to leave, how do you do it well?

In this episode, we are getting honest with our journeys through transition and what we learned / wished we would have done differently. Our hope is you'll leave asking the right questions about where God is calling you and be reminded of the Good Shepherd who leads you in and out of every season.

To celebrate the end of the summer, we are back for our FINAL episode of this season with another Confessions of a Girls Minister!

Whether you’ve survived camp on caffeine and Jesus or are gearing up for your next one, this confessions episode is for you. Because in all the sweat, sleeplessness, and snack wrappers, God shows up in powerful ways. Let’s laugh, cringe, and remember why camp is still one of the most fruitful (and ridiculous) parts of ministry.

John 10:10 reminds us that there is an enemy "steal and kill and destroy," yet the Lord has offered us a different way - an abundant way. But often times, ministry doesn't feel very "abundant". Instead, we feel stressed out, overwhelmed, and over it.

Our Lifeway Girls training team has been teaching all year at You Lead through this idea of overcoming stress and life's pressures. Today on the podcast episode we are breaking down the three key areas of stress in our lives, how to manage and deal with stress, and our role in leading the next generation toward the peace God desires.

There are still four more You Leads in 2025! We hope you'll join us. If not this year, keep an eye out for all the events our team will be at in 2026!

In a role or position where you're expected to be strong, steady, and spiritually "on," what happens when you don't have it all together? Who do you turn to when you face loss or walking through grief? If you are a member of the body of Christ, it's essential to find ways to be authentic and allow the Church to care for you, too.

Cassie shares her own story of being a pastor's wife through the loss of her mom and recurring miscarriages. When she wasn't able to show up, the Church showed up for her.

In today's episode, we sat down with our trusted therapist, Aunt P, to explore how unforgiveness can quietly take root in our hearts and impact the way we lead, trust, and relate to others. Together, we wrestle with some big questions:

•What does true forgiveness actually look like?

•How long does it take to get there—and is it okay if it takes a while?

•How do we forgive people who never say sorry or don’t even realize they’ve hurt us?

•And how do we humanize those who have wounded us, remembering they too were made in the image of God?

Whether you’re holding onto hurt or walking someone else through theirs, this conversation is full of truth, tenderness, and hope. You don’t have to carry it all alone—join us as we press into the hard but holy work of forgiveness.
