50. Why We Rebranded: The Rise of Spirit-Empowered Women Leaders

Welcome to a bold new chapter. In this kickoff episode of Empowered to Lead (formerly The Empowered Christian Woman), Jeannette shares the powerful story behind the podcast rebrand—and the deeper vision it reflects. This episode isn’t just about a name change. It’s about a movement of Spirit-empowered women rising to lead with clarity, courage, and conviction in spaces that weren’t built for them.

Jeannette opens up about her personal journey through church leadership, the weight of spiritual discontent that sparked her transformation, and the awakening that led her to lead differently, not by hustling for approval, but by leading from her God-given identity.

If you’ve ever felt the tension of being called to more but unsure how to step into it without burning out or losing yourself… this episode is for you.

You’ll also get a simple but powerful leadership reflection framework, the 3 R’s of Spirit-Led Leadership, to help you lead from a place of wholeness, not striving.

👉 As you listen, come back to these three questions:

• Rooted: Am I leading from my identity in Christ or from a place of striving?

• Resilient: What rhythms do I need to sustain my soul and my leadership?

• Relational: Who is walking with me on this journey of leadership?

This is your invitation to step into the leadership God designed you for...no permission needed.
