As leaders step into a new year, the question isn't just what we're building, but how we're leading and who we're becoming in the process.
In this special bonus episode of Impact CEO, J. Lee Ellison and Duane Donner pause the usual CEO interviews to reflect on vision, rhythms, and spiritual alignment as they step into a new season of leadership. This conversation introduces the heart behind Abide & Lead, a leadership framework rooted in John 15 and the belief that lasting impact flows from abiding in Christ before executing vision.
Together, they unpack what it looks like to start a new year with clarity, margin, and intentionality without chasing wholesale change or burning out in the process.
Whether you're leading a company, a team, or a family, this conversation will help you slow down, realign your priorities, and lead from a place of abiding rather than striving. Subscribe, share, and connect with us at @abideandlead.
