What if the most courageous move in your leadership isn’t pushing harder, but pausing to listen? Kelley sits down with Tracy Matthews, executive director of Attune to Grow, a Harvard-trained leader who traded a high-powered path for a Spirit-led life. Tracy recounts her first encounter with the Holy Spirit, the costly yes that followed, and the years of uncertainty that taught her to hear God with clarity. Together we explore how attunement turns leadership from solitary striving into a daily practice of union, where decisions carry peace, teams share courage, and results come with less exhaust and more joy.
We unpack the often-missed link in the faith-and-work movement: listening leadership. Tracy explains spiritual direction as a safe, artful space to notice God’s movement and name both the good and the broken. Then we bring those same postures onto the court of real leadership through Attune to Grow’s team-based approach. You’ll hear how brief pre-meeting pauses and a simple key relationship lens can recalibrate a day, a project, even a boardroom culture. Even in secular contexts, leaders can carry God’s presence with a quiet authority that shifts rooms and opens possibilities.

If you’ve ever asked how to tell God’s voice from your own thoughts, you’ll find practical exercises, stories, and a gentle invitation to taste and see. We talk about resisting the grind with Sabbath-like rhythms, trading control for trust, and becoming trees by living water that bear fruit in season. Tracy shares free resources to try guided attunement with a live decision, and we close with a reflective prayer for anyone longing to lead from rest and courage.
