This episode of The Integrated Life podcast is part two of a two-part series where Diana shares that although promotion is seen as a success, it is also possible to have success in demotion. Demotion comes in many ways; loss of a job, being passed over for a promotion, or going from a higher-ranking position to a lower rank position. Our actions following the demotion will determine our future success or failure.
Jeremiah 29:11 (NLT), "For I know the plans I have for you," says the Lord. "They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope."
Listen to learn steps that will lead you to higher ground and future success.
