Too many high-performing leaders hit their goals and still feel drained. If you’ve built success but can’t seem to slow down without guilt, this episode is for you.

I sat down with Ari Williams, a bold and refreshing voice in Christian music and author of The Boundless Mind, to explore what happens when performance becomes our default mode. Ari shares her story of leading worship, writing, and serving, until her pace landed her in a hospital room. That moment changed everything.

In this conversation, we unpack how to lead from rest, not from exhaustion; the mindset shift that frees you to scale your impact without sacrificing your health, your family, or your peace. You’ll hear practical insights on stewarding your energy, managing the pressure to perform, and renewing your mind for sustainable growth.

If you’re ready to lead from overflow instead of depletion, this episode will help you make that shift; from running on empty to leading with intention, clarity, and rest.
