• 142 | The Future Leader: What Women Must Know About AI & Leadership
    2025/12/15

    AI is reshaping the workplace faster than most leaders realise — and the women who learn to work with it, not fear it, will be the ones who thrive in the next decade.

    In this episode, we cut through the fear, the overwhelm, and the “I’m not techy” thoughts, and talk about what Christian women actually need to know about AI — without the jargon.

    You’ll learn:

    • why AI isn’t replacing leaders, but will expose leadership gaps

    • how AI can make your leadership calmer, lighter, and more effective

    • simple, practical ways Christian women can use AI every day

    • why spiritual discernment, emotional intelligence, and character are now your greatest leadership assets

    • why the future doesn’t belong to the loudest leaders — but the wisest

    If you’ve been unsure, intimidated, or worried about “falling behind,” this episode will give you confidence, clarity, and a faith-filled perspective on leading in a changing world.

    Your Next Step

    If change or the future of leadership stirs up self-doubt, grab The Imposter Syndrome Blueprint — your private, Scripture-rooted confidence reset for modern Christian leadership.

  • 141 | Faith First: Leading With Christian Values in Secular Spaces
    2025/12/08

    Leading with strong Christian values in a secular workplace can feel like walking a tightrope — wanting to honour God without overstepping boundaries, staying true to your faith without feeling “too much” or “not enough.”

    This episode is for every Christian woman who has ever wondered:

    “Can I lead boldly for Christ… even here?”

    The answer is yes — and today you’ll learn how.

    In this conversation, we explore:

    • how to stay grounded in your convictions without becoming defensive, preachy, or apologetic

    • the subtle ways Christian leaders accidentally dim their light at work

    • practical, Christlike behaviours that speak louder than words

    • how to set boundaries, hold standards, and navigate workplace culture with wisdom and grace

    • the difference between leading with your faith and leading about your faith

    If you’ve been feeling the tension of being a Christian woman in a non-Christian space, this episode will give you clarity, peace, and a renewed sense of purpose.

    Your Next Step

    If you often feel unsure, small, or hesitant about expressing your leadership in secular spaces, The Imposter Syndrome Blueprint will strengthen your confidence and help you lead with calm, steady, Christ-anchored conviction.

  • 140 | The Culture You Tolerate is the Culture You Produce
    2025/12/01

    Every leader creates culture — not by what they say, but by what they allow.

    In this episode, we delve into the harsh reality that the behaviours you ignore, the attitudes you overlook, and the patterns you “let slide just this once”… eventually become the culture your team accepts as normal.

    This conversation will help you:

    • recognise the subtle things that quietly shape (or sabotage) your team culture

    • understand how silence becomes agreement — and how Jesus modelled culture-setting with grace and truth

    • identify the warning signs that something unhealthy is growing under the surface

    • make small, calm, courageous shifts that change culture without burning yourself out

    If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed by your team dynamics, frustrated by repeated patterns, or unsure how to course-correct without conflict… this episode will give you clarity, confidence, and a Christlike way forward.

    Your Next Step

    If culture issues make you hesitate, second-guess, or shrink back from the conversations you know you need to have… grab The Imposter Syndrome Blueprint — a short, Scripture-rooted private podcast to help you lead with calm, Christ-anchored confidence.

  • 139 | [Guest] Reclaiming Confidence & Calling in Midlife: Wisdom from Cindee Williams
    2025/11/24

    In today’s episode, I’m joined by Cindee Williams — a Maxwell Leadership Certified Speaker, DISC Behavioral Consultant, entrepreneur of 30 years, and founder of LEAD My Life.

    Cindee brings the kind of wisdom that only comes from decades of leadership, motherhood, entrepreneurship, and personal growth. In this conversation, we talk about what leadership looks like in different seasons of life — especially the transition into midlife and the empty-nest years — and why your leadership doesn’t diminish with age… it deepens.

    We explore:

    • how your identity shifts as your life roles change

    • why confidence in midlife looks different (and stronger)

    • leadership lessons from parenting neurodiverse children

    • embracing your God-given strengths instead of competing with others

    • the role of communication, mentorship, and connection

    • navigating female leadership dynamics with maturity and grace

    Whether you’re in a season of transition or simply growing into a more grounded, confident version of yourself, this episode will encourage you and remind you: you don’t age out of leadership — you grow into it.

  • 138 | 3 Ways to Go From People Pleasing to People Leading
    2025/11/18

    If you’ve ever found yourself saying “yes” when you wanted to say “no,” avoiding conflict, or shrinking back to keep the peace, this episode will help you step out of people pleasing and into calm, confident, Christlike leadership.

    I'll break down:

    • why people pleasing is rooted in fear (not kindness)

    • how it weakens your authority, voice, and leadership impact

    • simple shifts to help you lead with clarity instead of over-accommodating

    • what Jesus modeled about boundaries, conviction, and courage

    Reflection Questions

    Ask yourself:

    • What’s my responsibility here?

    • What’s theirs?

    • What honours God in this situation?

    • What needs clarity?

    • What needs courage?

    These questions re-centre your leadership — and your peace.

    ✨ Next Step: The Imposter Syndrome Blueprint

    If people pleasing, overthinking, or fear of disappointing others has been holding you back, grab my faith-filled private podcast: The Imposter Syndrome Blueprint.

    It will help you break the cycle of self-doubt and lead with confidence anchored in Christ.

  • 137 | [Series] Leadership Struggles Women Don’t Talk About Part 5 - Managing conflict
    2025/11/10

    Have you ever felt physically sick before a difficult conversation? Or spent days rehearsing what to say, only to walk away wishing you’d said it differently?

    You’re not alone — and you’re not weak for feeling that way.

    In Part 5 of our series “Leadership Struggles Women Don’t Talk About,” we’re talking about a topic many female Christian leaders quietly wrestle with:

    👉 Managing conflict.

    Not the professional steps. Not the scripts. Not the “leadership textbook answer.”

    But the emotional weight of it.

    Why it feels intimidating. Why women shy away from it. And why avoiding conflict actually makes leadership heavier — not easier.

    Inside this episode, you’ll hear:

    ✅ Why Christian women feel pressure to “keep the peace” ✅ How avoidance creates more damage than the conflict itself ✅ Why conflict doesn’t make you harsh — it makes you a leader ✅ A personal story from Rika about what she learned the hard way ✅ A powerful mindset shift that will change the way you view conflict forever

    If you’ve ever feared being misunderstood, disliked, or labeled “difficult” for speaking up… this episode will give you the aha moment you didn’t know you needed.

    Mentioned in This Episode

    💛 The Imposter Syndrome Blueprint If conflict triggers overthinking, self-doubt, or fear of sounding “too much,” this faith-filled private podcast + workbook will help you lead with calm, steady, Christ-anchored confidence. 👉 womenoffaithinleadership.com/blueprint

    Reflection Questions

    Take a few minutes this week to journal or pray through these:

    1️⃣ What conflict have you been avoiding — and why? 2️⃣ What fear is underneath it? (Rejection, being disliked, not knowing what to say, damaging relationships, looking unqualified?) 3️⃣ What would change in your leadership if you walked into conflict with confidence instead of dread?

    Whether you’re facing a difficult employee, tension on your team, or a hard truth that needs to be addressed, remember:

    You’re not failing because conflict feels hard. You’re growing into the leader God called you to be.

    Tune in now, and be encouraged.

  • 136 | [Series] Leadership Struggles Women Don’t Talk About Part 4 - Gossip & toxic cultures
    2025/11/04

    Gossip, tension, and toxic environments can quietly destroy the trust and peace in any workplace — and as a leader, you often feel caught in the middle.

    In this episode, I share practical and biblical strategies to help female Christian leaders lead with grace, integrity, and confidence — even when the workplace feels heavy.

    You’ll discover how to guard your heart, set the tone for a healthy culture, and replace gossip with open, respectful communication that reflects Christ.

    Key Takeaways
    • Gossip and negativity are symptoms of a deeper leadership challenge — one that requires spiritual and emotional maturity.

    • True leadership isn’t about controlling every voice — it’s about managing your own heart and response.

    • A healthy culture starts with one courageous leader who’s willing to model honesty, humility, and compassion.

    • When people feel seen and valued, gossip loses its grip.

    Reflection Questions
    1. Where in your workplace have you allowed gossip or negativity to linger instead of addressing it?

    2. How can you lead by example and shift the tone toward respect this week?

    3. What would it look like to trust God to defend your reputation — instead of trying to manage it yourself?

    Take these to prayer or journaling time this week and ask the Holy Spirit to show you where He’s calling you to lead with truth and love.

    Take the Next Step

    If this episode spoke to you — especially around self-doubt, fear, or feeling drained by negativity — it’s time to break free from those inner struggles with the Imposter Syndrome Blueprint.

    This short, Scripture-rooted private podcast and workbook will help you: ✅ Silence self-doubt and overthinking ✅ Lead with Christ-centered confidence ✅ Stay calm and anchored even in hard environments
