Asking “Where Would Christ Be?” with Kristin AndrusSeveral years ago, Kristin Andrus and her husband sold a portion of their extremely successful business, Traeger Grills. But instead of feeling relieved or celebratory, she immediately felt a heavy weight of responsibility and a strong spiritual prompting to choose the path less traveled, give back, and get out of her “bubble.”
In this week’s episode, Kristin joins me to talk about the ways she and her family, including their six children, are thinking outside the box to serve and volunteer in their community, as well as change public policy through her work with The Policy Projec...2023-08-3033 minUnleashing Sister Saints54.

The Connection Between Religion and the Gender Pay GapI'm sure you've heard of the gender pay gap, but did you know there is a connection between lower pay for women and religiosity? The gender wage gap is a complicated issue, but research shows religion affects the individual choices, organizational practices, and societal norms that impact the gap in pay between men and women. Today I share from a study that compared the pay gap in religious and non-religious states and countries, talk about my own personal experience with wage discrimination, and extend a challenge to learn more about the wage gap in order to lessen discrimination within...2023-08-0912 minUnleashing Sister Saints51. The Gift to Choose What and How We BelieveIn this episode I briefly honor Sister Patricia T. Holland, who passed away on July 20, 2023, and share one of my favorite quotes from her about her honest hatred for sewing. (Isn’t that great?!) Then, I share some thoughts about the truly incredible gift we have to choose what we believe. After a recent trip to Eastern Europe, I have reflected often on the freedom we have today to choose our religion and our beliefs, and how billions of people before us never had that choice. We must not take this gift for granted! I challenge listeners to consider wh...2023-08-0209 minUnleashing Sister Saints50.

Learning to Give Effective FeedbackDoes giving clear and direct feedback at home, church, or work make you feel uncomfortable or nervous? Girls and women are often socialized to be less direct in giving feedback, and I have found that women in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints can sometimes be ineffective in giving feedback in an effort to be more warm, kind, or compassionate. However, feedback is critical in helping others begin, stop, or continue certain behaviors, and learning to give effective feedback is an important skill. On this week’s episode, I share common mistakes made when giving feedback and ex...2023-06-2811 min
