Top Lessons on Faith-First Leadership & Purpose-Driven Success

In this conversation, Cory and I unpack what it really looks like to lead from a place of faith, identity, and intention — especially when success on paper doesn’t match how you feel on the inside.

Success Without Fulfillment
Why hitting financial or career goals doesn’t automatically lead to peace, joy, or purpose — and why so many leaders feel empty afterward.

Becoming the Person, Not Just Hitting the Goal
How goal-setting is more about who you become in the process than what you achieve at the end.

From Fear-Based to Faith-First Leadership
Cory shares how fear, scarcity, and control shaped his leadership — and what changed when he fully surrendered to God.

Leading Faith First in the Marketplace
What it actually looks like to integrate faith into business and leadership without hiding or compartmentalizing it.

Reactive vs. Intentional Leadership
Why routines, spiritual disciplines, and self-leadership are essential for staying grounded and focused.

Kingdom Success vs. Worldly Success
How success looks different when viewed through a Kingdom lens — and why stewardship matters more than accumulation.

Leading With Faith Instead of Fear: Practical Takeaways

  • Stop measuring success by one area of life (especially money or achievements) and take inventory of your spiritual, relational, and emotional health.

  • Ask yourself: Who do I need to become to reach this goal? — not just What do I need to do?

  • Create daily rhythms that support intentional leadership (prayer, time in the Word, physical health, reflection).

  • Pay attention to fear-based decision making and replace it with trust and surrender.

  • Lead yourself well before trying to lead others — self-leadership always comes first.

  • Shift from a scarcity mindset to an abundance mindset that allows blessings to flow through you, not just to you.

Scriptures Mentioned in This Episode

Philippians 4:7 “And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”

Matthew 6:19–21 “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal.

But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal.

For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”
