Hey, Friend!

Today’s episode is part 2 of our series: Feeling Valued in Ministry: A Journey Toward Wholeness. This one is entitled: Reclaiming Your Worth in Ministry, because sometimes the problem isn’t that we don’t have value - it’s that we have handed it to people who were never meant to hold it,.

Reclaiming your value means calling it back home - to your identity in Christ, not your identity in titles, roles, or responsibilities.

I pray this blesses you,

Hey, Friend!

Today’s episode is designed to remind you that your work, your heart, and your leadership matter - even when it doesn’t feel recognized. Remember, feeling valued starts with knowing your worth in Christ, and then leading from that truth in every area of your life.

This is the first in a series of episodes entitled: Feeling Valued in Ministry: A Journey Toward Wholeness.

I pray this blesses you,

Hey, Friend!

Ever feel like you’re doing everything right at work — first in, last out — but somehow, the promotions keep passing you by?

Hey, Friend!

Have you ever had a season where life just felt out of control? Maybe a loved one was making choices you couldn’t stop. Maybe circumstances—work, finances, health—spun beyond your reach.

That powerless feeling is heavy. But here’s the truth: You’re not powerless.

In this week’s podcast episode, “Feel Powerless? Begin by Controlling Your Mindset”, we’re diving into how shifting your mindset can give you freedom and peace even when circumstances don’t change.

We’ll explore: ✅ Why we crave control and what happens when we chase the wrong kind ✅ Practical ways to shift your thinking when life feels chaotic ✅ The surprising benefits of mindset control—clarity, resilience, and peace

You may not be able to calm the storm around you, but you can choose how you walk through it.

I pray this blesses you,

Hey, Friend!

Authenticity in leadership is one of those buzzwords that everyone loves to praise—until they see what it really costs.

We’re told: “Be an authentic leader.” But no one tells us how risky it feels.

Because true authenticity isn’t about oversharing, being liked, or saying whatever’s on your mind. It’s about:

• Admitting you were wrong—fully.

• Holding to your values when it costs you.

• Saying the hard truth when it would be easier to stay quiet.

• Choosing trust over approval.

That doesn’t always feel comfortable. In fact, it often feels lonely.

But here’s the reward: authenticity builds trust, not just popularity. And trust is what endures.

I unpack all of this in my latest podcast episode: “Why Authentic Leadership Feels Risky.”

Because the next time you’re tempted to polish, perform, or self-protect, you may find that the most powerful thing you can do is simply be real.

I pray this blesses you,

Hey, Friend!

We’ve all been there—sitting in a meeting where the questions feel less like curiosity and more like an interrogation. Even when a leader’s intentions are good, the way questions are asked can leave people defensive, guarded, or even discouraged.

But it doesn’t have to be that way.

In this week’s episode of Leadership Becomes Her, I share practical strategies for asking questions that build trust instead of fear. You’ll learn:

✅ Why questions sometimes feel like an inquisition ✅ The mindset shift from questioning to improve vs. questioning to prove ✅ 8 practical strategies for curious, supportive conversations ✅ Real “swap this for that” examples you can use immediately

Whether you lead a team at work, a ministry, or even within your home, the way you ask questions shapes the culture around you.

Let’s commit to asking questions that invite growth—not shut it down.

I pray this blesses you!
