It's that we need to identify this is a weakness of mine. There's people that are great at this. I need the right person that's going to compliment me in this area to make sure I have success. But what I will say, because I see a lot of leaders do this with sales. Oh, I'm not a salesperson. So then they go hire a salesperson and then they go fire a salesperson and they fire another salesperson.
They fire another salesperson because they're not training them. They're not managing them. They're not coaching them. They're not giving them the right support systems. So, yes, a lot of times I feel like we need to complement our our weaknesses with someone else's strength.
But at the same time, there's a role that sits in the middle of that, which is giving that person the right support to be able to support us, which is where I feel like people like us fall short sometimes, if that makes sense.
Yeah. Well, I mean, first of all, just say, you know, faith is the centerpiece of any healthy and productive society and culture. And a lot of the challenges that we've seen, especially in the US for our US listeners over the last decade have come as a result of faith really being removed from the centerpiece of society.
And so if you're a person of faith, I think you're really being called in this moment to share that and have that be a part of how you do business and how you interact with people. And my personal perspective is, I didn't share my faith. I kept it very private for my first 10 years of being in business.
And after COVID, when I saw the level of just despair and desperation and just the depths of struggle that people were in, I really started publicly sharing my faith and my faith perspective. And I really started calling on leaders to...
start sharing their faith and living their faith and using faith as a mechanism for expanding their capacity, their courage, their strength as leaders, all of those things. And, you know, I definitely wish that I had started that much sooner. I will say I think it was a lack of courage on my part that I didn't share it sooner because I was always like, oh, like I got it.
I have to keep it professional. I have to keep it separate. You know, I don't want to be like preaching at people and I don't want to like make people uncomfortable in this and the other. And, you know, definitely my experience of beginning to introduce my faith was, first of all, it was hugely welcomed. And people are craving that so significantly right now.
They just they're craving something rich and real and substantive and something deeper. And so I would say for anyone that's thinking like, oh, that it won't be embraced or that it won't be welcomed. I think you'll be shocked. I know I was. So that's point one.
I think point two is that the way that you share your faith, I think, is important because I know for me, you know, my mission is really kind of a perspective on trying to reintegrate faith back into the centerpiece of society.
So I think a lot of people's experience of faith has been very radical where it's like someone that is just fanatical or a church that they experience or a person that they experience that was just too far, too aggressive. And so a lot of people have moved away from the church. They've moved away from religion. They've moved away from faith and in whatever perspective because of that.
And so I think that's a real opportunity to be the change that you want to see in the world. And that's how I view that is, you know, you can share your faith in your content. You can share your faith. When I run an event with my team, I gather my team to pray before the event. We have team meetings in the morning on Zoom.
Starting this year, I started opening the Zoom room 15 minutes early for anyone who wants to come and pray. I was shocked at the number of team members and slowly the number just kept growing and growing and growing and growing. And, you know, so I think there's lots of little ways that you can just begin to show that you're a person of faith and be welcoming to others.
to also reclaim that part of themselves, whatever that looks like. And, you know, I say to my team all the time, I always think about the song, they'll know we are Christians by our love, right? So I think a lot of people are fearful to share their faith because they don't want to feel like they're preaching at people or telling them what to do.
And what I believe, especially in the secular world and in the business world is people The way that you conduct yourself as a business person can reflect your Christian values without you needing to be like screaming Bible verses at people. I actually do teach using Bible verses in some of my programs. So I actually, I love doing that. And there's spaces and places where I do that.
And there's places and spaces that I don't do that. But there's a lot of ways that you can reflect your value system and reflect being a person of faith without it being direct or aggressive that... From my perspective, what my goal is, is I want to get people to buy their first Bible or walk back into a church or start praying again or start even asking themselves, what are my faith beliefs?
Like, what do I believe? Start questioning things. And I've been successful doing that. And I've been successful just... opening that part of people's hearts again, which is what my goal is. And then from there, everyone walks a unique faith path. Everyone walks a unique relationship that's between them and their creator. And it's none of our business what that looks like.
But I think just being a person that by demonstrating your faith in the way that you operate, the way that you conduct yourself, the way that you communicate, lead and do business, that's a great starting point for all of us. And then you see where it goes from there, you know?
Yeah.
Well, yeah. And I mean, I just, I'll just add one thing to that before we move on. And I think it's, I mean, and this is a huge thing for me with homeschooling my daughter too. I do Christian studies with her and, you know, so I have the ability to really do that faith formation with her, which I think your whole life is predicated by what your belief system is, right?
