• Who Are You When No One’s Watching? Integrity Tested at Work & Away
    Jun 4 2025

    What happens to your integrity when you're away from home — on a work trip, at a conference, or in a new city where no one knows your name? In this episode, we dive deep into what it means to live with integrity in our professions and occupations, even when no one is watching.

    We define integrity through a biblical lens, examine major real-life failures and redemptions, and get honest about the temptations that arise in hidden places. I also share a very personal story — the moment I was tempted to get involved with a married man and how God’s grace kept me grounded.

    If you’ve ever acted differently in private than in public, or struggled to stand firm when no one was looking, this episode is for you. We end with encouragement for those who’ve failed in the past and offer practical, faith-driven steps to walk in integrity every day — no matter where you are.

    What You’ll Hear:

    • A biblical definition of integrity
    • Real-life examples of public failures and redemption
    • My personal testimony about temptation and conviction
    • Why integrity matters more when you’re “hidden”
    • Encouragement and action steps for a faithful, professional life

  • How To Increase Your Capacity
    Jan 16 2024

    Have you ever done a favor for someone and then realized what the person really needs is to improve their skills or increase their capacity? Or perhaps you've asked for a favor when in reality what you actually needed was to improve your skillset and/or increase your capacity.

    In this episode we focus on two types of people:

    • People given into a disability (John 5:1-9)
    • People who increase their capacity (Mark 2:1-12)

    In which of the two categories do you WANT to be in? In the disabled or in the able-bodied?

  • Why You Should Get a Coach
    Jan 25 2023

    Have you wondered if coaching really works? Or have you thought about or even consider getting a coach? Have you thought about what a coach actually does? Have you stop to think what is the big deal with people that get a coach? If you've asked anyone of those questions then this episode is especially dedicated to you.

    Our guest on this episode is Jabari Wright. He is currently a technical recruiter at Procter & Gamble in Cincinnati, OH. We have a three-fold conversation centered around coaching and his experience in developing relationships with coaches. I had the opportunity of coaching him through his job search and writing a resume and we talk about it in this episode.

  • How To Overcome Your Personal Mistakes and Failures at Work
    Nov 3 2022

    Have you ever felt like you completely failed? Either at your job, in your responsibilities, with your tasks, or something that you were assigned to do? Or have you ever felt like I am supposed to do this but in reality everything I do or everything I touch seems to be spoiled or turning out wrong? If you ever felt any of these then this episode is especially dedicated to you!

    After chasing my dream job for 10 years, I got it. But, in just 6 months I failed to such a degree that I resigned from the position.

    If we were to judge by the profiles and pages in social networks, we would say that very few or almost no one experiences failures. People tend to share their successes and they minimize, cover up or hide the low points of life. However, failure does not discriminate against anyone. At some point failure visits all us.

    The important thing in our journey through life is to learn from our failures. Or better yet, we should learn to fail. Each failure has an associated lesson attached. If we meditate enough we will realize that failures are often our best teachers. Consequently, it is good and recommended to learn to have a healthy relationship with our mistakes and failures.

    In this episode I share my biggest professional failure in order to encourage you. So regardless of your current or past situation, have faith that this too shall pass. The important thing is to get back up again (and again).

  • Join the Fight Against Racism with Purpose
    Jul 20 2020

    What opinions are you holding onto about racism? and what advise are you acting on? Is your bias towards action or staying passive? How likely are you to continue to deepen your understanding of the issue?

    The manner George Floyd's death marked a before and after in the fight against racism. Many people acted immediately. Some just did it because it was trendy at the moment. However, we must continuously reflect and examine ourselves whether we are acting based on trends or according to our convictions.

    In this episode we explore some of the ways to join the anti-racism movement for justice. But before determining how you can contribute to the fight against racism, there is a question that you must ask yourself. That question is: What is my purpose?

    Listen to the episode to learn more about the relationship between our purpose and the effectiveness of our contributions to the cause of justice.
