Do you want to be inspired about how next gen Christians are being formed in faith, giftings, and identity? Julia and VC Students Pastor Santos Chaparro interview one of our VC Middle School students (and amazing production volunteer!) and a volunteer college-age leader (who was about to head into finals week!) and ask about what church has meant for them, how wrestling through vulnerable questions about identity has brought them closer to God and community, how we can continue to encourage them in faith... and why the 400 meter hurdles might be one of the BEST metaphors for life and Christian discipleship, ever. Listen in to hear the heart of our students. If you have questions about getting involved in our student ministry at any campus, please email Hannah.Chaparro@vineyardcolumbus.org and she'll point you in the right direction.

Get ready to be inspired by Jennifer McCollum, President and CEO of Catalyst, as she reveals the blueprint for women's ascent to leadership roles. In this conversation with host Natalie Benamou, Jennifer talks about her book "In Her Own Voice: A Woman's Rise to CEO," offering practical advice for women aiming for the top and the organizations championing their cause.In this conversation, Jennifer differentiates between mentorship and sponsorship and why we need male allies. Key TakeawaysWomen must be comfortable engaging men in their networks for allyship, mentorship, or sponsorship. Organizations need to recognize and amplify women's contributions in meetings and address the 'third shift' to create more equitable workplaces. AI tools may help reduce the burden of office housework traditionally falling on women. Sponsorship often cannot be requested but is earned, whereas mentorship can be a mutual and beneficial relationship cultivated over time. It is vital for C-suite executives, particularly men who hold the majority of leadership positions, to engage in creating a supportive environment for women leaders.1. "Leadership is a collective journey, shaped by mentors and sponsors, crucial for turning aspirations into achievements." - Jennifer McCollum on women's support systems in leadership.2. "Gender equality isn't just morally right; it's essential for business. Organizations flourish by utilizing their diverse talent." - Jennifer McCollum on the necessity of gender equity in business.3. "Inclusive leadership requires intentional actions, accountability, and commitment to ensure everyone's voice is heard and everyone can succeed." - Jennifer McCollum on inclusive leadership and gender equality.As we take in the wealth of knowledge shared by Jennifer McCollum, it becomes clear that empowering women to the top is not merely a matter of individual ambition. It requires a collective effort to transform corporate culture, to engage men as allies and sponsors, and to implement practical strategies that address the unique challenges faced by women in leadership.Thank you Jennifer McCollum for being a featured guest today. We especially appreciate HerCsuite® member Mylene Barizo for introducing us.

Here's a sneak peek at what's happening with Brave Women at Work in 2024. I am working on building a course for you. Yes, that's right, a new course with a group coaching component is coming your way. I am looking for women to interview about professional confidence, so if you would like to be part of my research, email me at hello@bravewomenatwork.com. You can also always find me on LinkedIn and send me a private message there too. One of the key themes I am finding in my research is women struggling with communication at work. It may be fear of sharing because they don't want to be seen as incompetent, having to twist their communication a certain way to get others to do things, act like they don't know something and play the damsel in distress, so they don't come off as a know-it-all or intimidating, I feel like I've heard it all. And you know what? It's sad that in 2024, we as professional, capable women often feel like we can't own our voice and stand in our power. This and so many other things act as large barriers to our ascent into leadership. So, let's change that, shall we? My guest today, Jennifer McCollum, and her new book In Her Own Voice: A Woman's Rise to CEO: Overcoming Hurdles to Change the Face of Leadership, aims to do just that. During my chat with Jennifer, we discussed:1. Jennifer's own professional journey to CEO of Linkage.2. What stirred Jennifer to write the book.3. Why she believes only 10% of women are Fortune 500 CEOs and less than 30% are senior leaders.4. What are some of the barriers that hold professional women back and what we can do about it.5. How our male counterparts and companies as a whole can support women and their professional growth.6. And the benefits of women-led companies.

Oh MAN this was fun. Loved the chance to sit back down with Chase Ealey for the third day of our Turning the Page series. We talk about the difficulties that go with "failure," both in and out of sport, and how she's feeling going into this Olympic year. She also shares how she wants to interact with fans and followers in 2024, hoping that they can see her for more than just a World Champion shot put athlete. We also toast to our themes of the year, and Chase gives me a hilarious lesson in millennial terminology because I've clearly been living under a rock.
