Can you really trust your heart or is it “deceitful above all things” like you may have been taught?

In this episode, Jeannette explores what the Bible actually says about the heart, discernment, and the role of the Holy Spirit in guiding your decisions. If you’re a Christian woman leader who has ever struggled to trust your intuition, second-guessed your calling, or felt pressure to defer to external authority, this conversation will feel both grounding and freeing.

Jeannette unpacks the context of Jeremiah 17:9 and examines how that verse has often been misapplied to silence women’s inner knowing and looks at what Scripture really teaches about Spirit-led wisdom.

You’ll learn:

• What biblical discernment actually means
• Why many women in church leadership have been conditioned to distrust themselves
• How patriarchal theology can shape decision-making patterns
• What Jesus says about the Holy Spirit guiding you into all truth
• How to rebuild trust in your inner discernment without abandoning wise counsel

Leadership starts with leading yourself. And self-leadership requires learning how to quiet the noise, invite God into your inner world, and listen for His voice within.

If you’re navigating a hard decision, questioning your direction, or longing for clarity about your calling, this episode will help you cultivate Spirit-led discernment with confidence and peace.

If you’ve ever wondered what your team is really thinking or felt hesitant to ask because you don’t want to hear criticism, this episode is for you. Jeannette talks about why feedback matters, what’s at stake when leaders aren’t getting honest input, and why critical feedback can trigger shame or defensiveness (even for seasoned leaders).

If you’ve ever swung between shame (“Maybe I’m not cut out for this”) and blame (“They don’t understand what I’m carrying”), this episode will help you step off that exhausting pendulum. You’ll learn why feedback is a leadership growth accelerator, why getting honest feedback often decreases as your authority increases, and how to create a culture where truth-telling is safe and growth is normal.

You’ll walk away with:

• A simple, step-by-step practice to process feedback without spiraling
• A powerful question to ask your team this week to surface real, actionable insight
• A fresh invitation to lead with humility, courage, and clarity, without guessing

January is Human Trafficking Awareness Month and this episode is both eye-opening and hope-giving.

In this conversation, Jeannette sits down with Hannah Munn of Love Justice International, a ministry doing something both bold and brilliantly strategic: preventing human trafficking before it happens. While most of us picture rescue after the fact, Love Justice trains local teams to watch transit corridors (bus stations, border crossings, airports) and step in when something doesn’t look right.

Hannah shares what an “intercept” actually looks like (including a moment with a young girl standing alone with no phone, no money, and no way home), why prevention is the “rescue that never has to happen,” and the astonishing impact of their work; over 100,000 people protected from exploitation.

But this episode isn’t only about the mission. It’s also about surrendered, Christ-centered leadership, the kind that says yes not just to a calling, but to everyday faithfulness. Hannah opens up about the spiritual practices that keep her steady in heavy work, and how you can partner in this life-saving work.

Press play if you need a fresh vision of justice, courage, and what’s possible when women lead with obedience and love.

A new year brings fresh energy, new goals… and that beautiful feeling that this time it’s going to stick.

But here’s the truth most people don’t realize until it’s too late: motivation is a great start… and a terrible plan.

Because there’s a predictable moment coming when the newness wears off, progress slows down, and your brain starts negotiating for comfort. And if you don’t plan for it now, it can quietly derail the very goals you’re excited about today.

In this episode, Jeannette shares a vulnerable story about learning to preach with confidence, how anxiety, slow progress, and self-doubt nearly convinced her to quit… and why staying with the process changed everything. You’ll learn

• Why the “messy middle” is normal and what it means when it shows up

• The brain science behind why change feels clumsy and exhausting

• The 4 stages of competence (and how to know which stage you’re in)

• How to set a minimum commitment so you don’t quit before breakthrough

If you’re pursuing a health goal, building a volunteer team, setting boundaries, using your voice more, or leading organizational change this episode will help you stay steady when it gets hard.

What happens when God stirs a calling that feels bigger than your capacity, your resources, or your clarity?

In this episode, pastor and leadership coach, Jeannette Cochran, returns to the Christmas story, not the sanitized, porcelain-figurine version of Mary, but the real young woman we meet in the gospel of Luke. A teenager. Overlooked. Without power or status. And yet, entrusted with a world-changing calling.

Mary’s honest question,“How will this be?” is not a lack of faith. It is the beginning of courageous leadership.

This conversation is especially for women who sense God calling them to more; more influence, more leadership, more impact but feel stuck in uncertainty, waiting for clarity or a plan that hasn’t yet appeared.

Through Mary’s story, we find three anchors that consistently appear in Scripture when God calls someone into purpose:

• Why identity is spoken before obedience
• How God often owns the how when the calling exceeds human capacity
• What it means to offer a brave yes, even when the cost is real

Jeannette shares a personal story of carrying a God-sized vision for years, long before there were resources, clarity, or a path forward, and how God brought it to life in ways that could never have been planned or engineered.

This episode invites women leaders to stop disqualifying themselves, stop waiting to feel “ready,” and begin trusting the heart of the One who calls, especially when the way forward is unclear.

For the first time in decades, men are attending church more than women, and Gen Z women are disengaging the fastest. In this candid, hope-centered episode, Jeannette explores why so many women are stepping back, not from Jesus, but from church cultures that silence their voices, limit their gifts, or feel unsafe and exhausting.

Drawing on new Barna data, Scripture, and real conversations with women, she offers four big reasons behind the trend and practical steps any church can take now: listen deeply, elevate women’s leadership, rebuild belonging for singles and single moms, and prioritize discipleship over mere attendance. This is a gentle challenge and an invitation to build communities where women and men lead shoulder to shoulder.
