What if your leadership grew quieter inside even as the stakes rose outside? Kelley sits down with Peggy Bodde—corporate veteran and author of Sacred Work—to explore how Christian women can hear God clearly, set healthy boundaries, and lead courageously in complex workplaces. From bias and conflict to strategy and negotiations, we trace how prayer and Scripture translate into practical moves that serve people and performance.

Peggy shares why she wrote the book she could never find, offering mentorship for women who feel caught between church spaces not built for professionals and workplaces uncertain about faith. We unpack the difference between peacemaking and peacekeeping, and why “niceness” can’t replace truth told in love. Expect relatable stories: praying through a tense one-on-one, discovering conviction in an old email, and choosing words that carry both clarity and kindness. You’ll hear how to anchor verses before a hard conversation, recognize the enemy’s accusations after, and return to peace without walking back your boundary.

We also talk community—how to escape isolation, find mentors who tell the hard truth, and curate a circle that sharpens your judgment. Think Joseph-level wisdom for modern teams: spiritual insight that becomes strategy, timing, and outcomes. If you’re a woman navigating leadership, ethics, and identity while carrying your faith into rooms that need repair, this conversation offers tools and courage to move forward.
