In this episode, we explore strategies to appreciate your thinking process by cultivating curiosity, accessing heart wisdom, and creating a sense of calm that allows your inner guidance to speak more clearly.

In the fourth episode of Sage Advice, host Hamza Khan sits down with his wife—and soon-to-be mother of their twins—Bailey Parnell (CEO @ SkillsCamp) for a heartfelt and visionary conversation on purpose, self-leadership, and the psychology of becoming. A globally recognized speaker, entrepreneur, and thought leader, Bailey opens up about the influence of her mentors, the transformative power of reverse-engineering success, and why leading with heart is her North Star. Drawing from wisdom like “act as if” and “fake it till you become it,” she explores how mindset shapes our reality and how we can step into our fullest selves. The episode also delves into matrescence—the profound psychological shift that comes with motherhood—and how it parallels the growth required of leaders. Bailey's timeless advice: 1) Act from the place of the goal, 2) Expect the worst and hope for the best, and 3) Lead with love. This deeply personal episode is a powerful meditation on self-actualization, purpose, and becoming the leader your future needs.

SERIES: Because He LivesIf someone saved you from a horrible death, what would you do to thank them? Probably just about anything they asked, because that's how grateful you would be! Jesus not only saved us from eternal death in hell, but he won for us an eternity in paradise. What shall we do to thank him? He asks for just one thing: love. He asks us to demonstrate to others the same selfless love he has shown to us. That is how we thank him - we lead with love.

At a young age, Yara knew she wanted to be an end-of-life doula, to help people prepare for death.

Lead with Love: A Journey of Discovery by Jack Russell Amazon.com Selfsustainingleadership.com Have you always known love?” a dear friend asked Jack as they were driving home on a dark, bitterly cold winter night. It took a mile or so before he responded, “Yes.” He felt the prevalent darkness deep in his being. It was an emotionally turbulent moment in his life. His wife had recently died after a short illness. But he also experienced Love in the deepest moments of his despair bringing rays of light and hope to the darkness. Yes, he could truly say that he had experienced Love's comfort, guidance, healing, and protection in many, many ways throughout his life. His friend continued, “What is this Love that you've known?” Her question was the beginning of a focused journey of exploration and discovery lasting well over a decade. In 1997, Jack created a cutting edge, quantum leadership model for the 21st century—Self-Sustaining Leadership. At its core, it says we are all connected, entangled together in a web-of-life. Leadership is about relationships; how we connect with others and ourselves in ways that contribute to our collective well-being, productivity, health, and peace. It is Love, a universal principle that sustains this connection; that connects us heart-to-heart. But how do we live this connection with ourselves and others in our daily lives? How does Love guide us to know what is the morally right thing to do in different situations? How do we practice loving ourselves so we can love others more deeply? How does fear and love motivate us in everything we do? What does Love have to do with leadership? Jack takes us on a journey of discovery in answering these questions and more. In doing so, he shows us how to lead with Love! As I read Jack's work,” one reader offers, “it feels like he's sharing with me, like we're having a conversation. He speaks to my heart.” This book is about connecting heart-to-heart.About the author Jack is a proven leader, author, executive coach-mentor, organization trainer-instructor, and entrepreneur. He is a leadership visionary who, in 1997, created a cutting-edge Self-Sustaining Leadership model based on the principles of quantum mechanics. It was the fulfillment of a life-long quest to discover a 21st-century model to meet the universal need for holistic, multi-dimensional, skillful, and morally courageous leaders in real-world settings. Describing his work, people comment on Jack's visionary insights along with his integrity, trustworthiness, engagement, deep listening, and selfless heart character traits. He has a diverse coaching, teaching and training background ranging from the U.S. Army to early child care, secondary and higher education to businesses and non-profits. Having lived and served in several countries, he brings a global perspective and a deep respect for diverse cultures to his work. He lives among the Green Mountains of Vermont with his wife, Glenda, who partners with him in the leadership work.

What if your season of waiting isn't a setback, but a setup for something greater? In the final installment of The Book of James series, Pastor Travis delivers a powerful and hope-filled message: waiting time is not wasted time. When we're waiting—on healing, breakthrough, purpose, or a promise—we often feel like nothing is happening. But the truth is, God is working behind the scenes, refining us, strengthening our faith, and preparing us for what's next. Just like a farmer patiently waits for the harvest, trusting the unseen process, we too must trust that God's timing is perfect. Through the stories of Joseph, Habakkuk, and Hannah, Pastor Travis reminds us that every great move of God is preceded by a season of waiting. And just like lifting heavy weights builds strength, the weight of trials is actually building us up, not breaking us down. Jesus Himself carried the ultimate weight—the cross—showing us that even our heaviest burdens have purpose. You don't have to carry them alone. There is power in trusting God, in community, and in prayer. If you're in a season of waiting, don't lose hope—your miracle, your breakthrough, your harvest is coming. Don't miss this message. It might just change the way you see waiting forever.
Navigating relationships with loved ones who hold different beliefs can be a wee bit challenging, especially when emotions run deep.

Whether you're navigating family dynamics, friendships, or community spaces, this conversation offers heart-centred strategies to cultivate connection, even amidst differences.Have you joined our Facebook Group yet?

She talks about her family, and how the wisdom and experiences of her parents shaped the way she approaches people who hold different world views.
