There is a brief window before the noise returns.

Before opinions flood in.
Before predictions harden.
Before pressure tells you what matters most.

In this episode of Summit After the Storm, leadership author and speaker Bart Wilbanks reflects on the power of stillness before high-pressure moments. As Super Bowl weekend approaches and expectations rise everywhere, this conversation invites leaders to pause, recalibrate, and take stock of what pressure has already revealed.

This episode serves as the closing reflection of Season 1, integrating themes of clarity, formation, patience, and awareness that surfaced throughout the season. Drawing from lessons learned on Mount Kilimanjaro and anchored in Psalm 46:10, Bart explores why stillness is not disengagement but alignment — and why leaders who choose quiet before the noise are better prepared for what comes next.

This episode is for leaders navigating:

• Pressure and expectation

• Decision-making before high-stakes moments

• Leadership clarity and stillness

• Faith-based leadership and discernment

• Transition seasons and reorientation

🎧 Before the noise returns, take a moment to notice what this season has revealed about you.
