Welcome to The Reluctant Leader Podcast—where we talk real leadership for those of us who sometimes feel like we’re not cut out for it… but keep showing up anyway.

In this episode, I’m unpacking what I learned from posting 21 straight days of hope-filled, one-minute videos on TikTok. I’ll share what surprised me, the comments that reminded me why this matters, and why consistency is your secret weapon—especially when no one’s clapping yet.

We’re talking:

  • The identity-shaping power of showing up
  • The spiritual truth behind compounding faithfulness
  • Why success in leadership is often slow, quiet, and deeply worth it
  • How a few seconds of encouragement can change someone’s entire day

Scripture Anchor:

“Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.”
Galatians 6:9 (NIV)
