What Can Church Culture Learn From Corporate Culture? Ep. 37

What can the modern church learn from corporate leadership culture  and what can corporate culture learn from Scripture? In today’s episode, Carole Evans tackles a topic she has researched and reflected on for months: the growing disconnect between healthy organizational leadership and church culture. Through personal stories, leadership experience, biblical examples, and research into why people leave churches, Carole explores: * Leadership accountability * Feedback systems in churches * Church staff burnout * Leadership development in ministry * Financial accountability * Delegation and structure * Biblical leadership models * Church communication and transparency This episode centers around Exodus 18 and the leadership advice Jethro gave Moses,  reminding us that God never intended for leaders to carry the burden alone.   #FaithAndWork #ChurchLeadership #BiblicalLeadership #ChristianPodcast #LeadershipDevelopment #ChurchCulture #Exodus18 #MinistryLeadership #FaithAtWork #ChristianLeadership

Learning How To Unmute Yourself with Dr. Rita Renee Ep. 36

Have you ever sat quietly at a table because you were afraid to speak up? Maybe you worried you would say the wrong thing. Maybe you felt overlooked, intimidated, or unsure if your voice really mattered. For many of us, learning how to speak up isn't about becoming louder or more aggressive. It's about learning to walk in confidence without shame. In this episode, we talk about what it means to find your voice and step into the space God created for you to occupy. God didn't create you to shrink back in fear or sit silently believing your thoughts don't matter. He created you with intention, purpose, wisdom, and a voice worth using. Whether you're navigating leadership, motherhood, business, ministry, relationships, or simply trying to build confidence in everyday conversations, this episode will encourage you to stop hiding and start showing up boldly and authentically. We'll discuss: * Learning how to speak up with confidence * Why boldness doesn't have to be loud or pushy * Overcoming fear, shame, and self-doubt * Using your voice in leadership and everyday life * How faith shapes confidence and communication * Why God calls us to courage, not perfection * Finding your seat at the table without apologizing for your presence If you've ever struggled with confidence, communication, people-pleasing, or feeling unseen, this conversation is for you. You were never created to disappear in the background. You were created on purpose, for a purpose. Scripture referenced: "Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go."

Finding Home with Kimberly Hawkins Ep. 34

In this heartfelt and deeply transformative conversation, Carole Evans sits down with Kimberly Hawkins to explore what it truly means to find rest, not in circumstances, but in the presence of the Shepherd. Kimberly shares her journey from a fast-paced, achievement-driven life to a season of complete surrender marked by anxiety, health challenges, and an unexpected calling to step away from work and write a book on rest. What began as a breaking point became a sacred invitation: to stop striving, to release control, and to learn how to hear the voice of God. Through honest storytelling, Kimberly reveals how God used the valley, not to harm her, but to restore her. She opens up about identity struggles, marriage tension during seasons of transformation, and the painful yet beautiful process of being emptied so she could be filled with Christ. Together, Carole and Kimberly unpack what it looks like to stop “shepherding ourselves” and instead follow the voice of the One who leads us beside still waters. This episode is an invitation to anyone who feels exhausted, overwhelmed, or stuck in striving: there is a better way and it begins with hearing His voice.   Check out her book, Home on Amazon now.  Buy Now On Amazon [https://www.amazon.com/HOME-Returning-Rest-Through-Psalm-ebook/dp/B0GJR8ZJZT/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3APVPDVP2O9K&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.5_o1DfaBKXeb2tyXq2KIjcew4iosFkpCo5w8Pl-JLjOXlW2k-FJ9QvWJswZeqyA_nir3SLXHPUC1d1ONRsraOrl4ijNBp7MdJf6-t2HfwRt2yKwK_I7WXcyw4gEXsVgarRlOEq__NyoIiNPNwN_TUw.-Vf6eaWFwXp3KrCLnfF0ms2oGEwsL745hFbShdCwJ_I&dib_tag=se&keywords=home+by+kimberly+hawkins&qid=1774491168&sprefix=Home+by+kimb%2Caps%2C250&sr=8-1]

Echo's of Impact: A Life Rooted in Purpose with Brianna Gray Ep. 32

In this heartfelt conversation, I sit down with Brianna Gray, co-host of the Echo's of Impact Podcast and life coach, to talk about moving from hustle culture to being truly rooted in Christ. We share personal stories, laughs, and lessons, it was the kind of conversation that feels like chatting over coffee with a friend. Briana opens up about the pressures of chasing productivity, impact, and success  and what changed when God invited her into something deeper: identity, surrender, and being firmly established in Him first. This episode reminds us that faith, work, and home are meant to be integrated, not separated, and that when we are rooted in Christ, our work and relationships flow from peace, not pressure.   Echo's of Impact Podcast [https://open.spotify.com/show/0l6bdZq8HGLNfA5Gvpaz3u?si=c6f5268485bc466f]
