Season 4 of the LIF podcast is all about starting new conversations. We're leaning in instead of leaning away from fresh perspectives…even if they seem to lead us away from the traditional life and lifestyle we've worked to achieve for so long.
We're willing to admit that sometimes we experience peace before we experience success.
We're discovering that living loved really is different from living afraid, that saying NO is as much an option as saying YES, and we literally feel different in our own bodies and our own stories when we're benefitting from love instead of motivated by the fear of missing out.
In this episode, we're starting a new conversation about
The Ascent of a Leader - How Ordinary Relationships Develop Extraordinary Character by Bill Thrall, Bruce McNicol, and Kevin McElrath. We're talking about becoming a healthy leader and discerning healthy leadership under which you can align yourself and grow, instead of simply showing up and making it work.
Listen in as we describe

TAKEAWAYS-- - Living loved is a synonym for God's plan for your life. Living afraid is a synonym for the enemy's plan for your life.
- "God's plan could mean stepping up to a challenge. It could mean stepping down. But each step brings us closer to our destiny if it leads to greater love for God and others. Whether our sphere of influence is small or large, the possibilities remain the same. We can watch our motives transform from selfishness to selflessness. We can submit to the Master's loving hand, becoming what we need to become for the benefit of others and our world." (p. 179)
- "In the course you have set for your life, how are you providing for the safety of those you influence? As you look over your shoulder, who is in the wake of your influence and how are they doing?" (p.12)
