Every leader makes mistakes, but not every leader knows how to recover from them. Other leaders don't even admit they made a mistake and will do everything to remain "credible".

In this episode, I unpack what to do when your decisions, words, or actions have damaged trust with your team.

You’ll learn why your mistakes don’t disqualify you, how Scripture points us toward humility and restoration, and practical steps you can take to rebuild credibility and lead with confidence again.

📖 What you’ll hear in this episode:

• The biblical perspective on failure and redemption in leadership

• Why humility and honesty are essential for regaining trust

• Three practical steps you can take to start rebuilding today

Whether you’ve just walked through a tough leadership moment or want to be prepared for the future, this conversation will remind you that God can use even your failures as part of your leadership story.

👉 Listen now and discover how to restore trust and move forward in faith.

As you reflect on this episode, consider these questions:

1. Where have I hesitated to admit a mistake in my leadership—and what held me back?

2. What step of humility (apology, clarification, or action) could I take this week to begin restoring trust?

3. How can I remind myself daily that my worth as a leader is rooted in Christ, not in perfection?

✍️ Take a few minutes to journal your responses—or pray through them, asking God to give you courage, wisdom, and grace in your leadership.

As female Christian leaders, we often pour ourselves out for others—our teams, our families, our communities—until there’s nothing left. But what if God is inviting us to see our leadership through the lens of stewardship... starting with our physical health?

Have you ever felt stuck between a rock and a hard place in your leadership role?

One moment, you're fielding expectations from senior leadership, and the next, you’re navigating tension within your team.

If you're a middle manager or in any leadership role where you're both leading up and managing down, this episode is for you.

Middle management is one of the most challenging places to lead from.

You're not “at the top,” but you’re also not “just a leader” anymore. You carry the weight of implementing company-wide decisions, while still advocating for your employees and customers.

You're both bridge and buffer.

The challenge? When things go wrong, you’re often the one stuck trying to defend a policy you didn’t create, or explain decisions that you weren’t part of.

But here’s the truth: God has positioned you here on purpose.And there is a way to lead with integrity, grace, and strength, even in the tension.

In this episode, I walk through 3 biblical and practical strategies to lead both up and down—without losing yourself in the process.

1. Reflection: Where in your leadership are you prioritizing image over integrity?

2. Action Step: Practice “translating” big-picture leadership goals into meaningful, actionable direction for your team. And when speaking up to senior leaders, bring solutions, not just problems.

3.Prayer Prompt: “God, help me to lead faithfully in the unseen. When I feel stretched thin, remind me that my strength comes from You, not from others’ recognition.”
