Over the last two years, there has been an overarching message of fear in the news, from the pandemic to threats of war. How do we continue to walk in the assurance of our faith and maintain resiliency at work and home? Today we go to Damascus, Maryland, to talk with the bestselling author of Claim Your Courage, Krystal Stewart, about overcoming fear amid challenging circumstances.
Krystal is a cancer survivor, and while she was recovering from surgery, an opportunity landed on her doorstep... literally. A toddler boy and his baby brother were handed to Krystal and her husband as their homeless parents battled with addiction. Krystal and Ronnie's little family quickly grew, as did life's challenges. Krystal shares her inspiring journey of courageous living from both the ministry and marketplace platforms. When asked how we can make an impact in our cities as Christian working women, Krystal challenges our listeners to identify the needs closest to us. "Love looks around." Her life verse comes from John 16:33, "These things I have spoken to you so that in Me you may have peace. In the world you have tribulation but take courage; I have overcome the world."

Featured Guests: Ellie Nieves
Ministry/Workplace: Leadership Strategies for Women, LLC
Join Catherine Gates & Martha Brangenberg as they interview Ellie Nieves – an attorney and the Vice President of a Fortune 250 company – on bouncing back from life's unexpected curveballs. Through setbacks, adversity, challenges and health issues, Ellie has learned the importance of relying on faith in every aspect of life, including work! Her mission is to help aspiring Christian women leaders pave the way to success in their careers and spiritual lives.

We can plan our careers; we can work hard and hustle. But we can't anticipate every adversity, challenge, or disruption. Ellie Nieves is no stranger to life's curveballs, but with faith, she has come through it all with grace! Join Catherine Gates, Martha Brangenberg, and special guest Ellie Nieves as we discuss work-life balance, being a Christian woman in the corporate world, and developing personal resiliency through all of life's seasons!
Ellie Nieves has been laser-focused on achieving her goals from the beginning. She launched a successful career as a lawyer in New York City politics and then became vice president for a Fortune 250 company. Ellie didn't think she had time for all that "Christian stuff" when she first started out. However, when she had reached the pinnacle of her career, something was still missing. That's when God brought her to her knees – a defining moment that put everything in life – including her career – into context.
Tune in to hear more about how Ellie came to Christ through a business connection, how she balances her faith with being a wife, mother, attorney, diversity, equity and inclusion consultant, speaker, podcast host, and corporate VP. Hint, it all starts with four simple things: prayer, attitude, discipleship, and Scripture!

Do you know any essential workers? These individuals have faced insurmountable stress during the COVID-19 pandemic, risking their own health and wellbeing for the sake of others. As a result, 2020 was officially dubbed Year of the Nurse, and for good reason! Today we are going to Castle Rock, Colorado, to talk with board-certified nurse Jene Dunn about serving like Jesus in the health care sector.
Jene grew up in a loving Christian home, surrounded by many family members who served as pastors and missionaries. But from a young age, Jene knew that she would go on to share the gospel in a different kind of mission field – the healthcare sector. As a Clinical Nurse Manager of four departments in a faith-based hospital, Jene has a passion for empowering those under her leadership. Her personal mission statement is "To allow the light of Christ to shine through me as I care for frontline associates who then care for our patients." But what exactly does that look like during a global pandemic? Tune in to find out!
Plus, Jene discusses the importance of vulnerability and authenticity when leading a team through trauma or uncertain times and the value continual learning, servant leadership, and honing in on a personal mission statement.
