What's the hardest thing you've ever done?

At The Well This Week

 

Audrey Chan reflects on the places God is meeting her and the ways grad school is forming her spiritually in humility, steadfastness, and presence.

“What was so hard about grad school? Where is God meeting me in this, this “hardest thing I’ve ever done”?​ ​I realized that grad school was shaping my thoughts, mind, and perspective in ways that were about much more than math.”

We have a new podcast episode for you — our 100th! — with the authors of Creating Cultures of Belonging: Cultivating Organizations Where Men and Women Thrive. This conversation covers gendered leadership expectations, quiet quitting, and why organizations with men and women leading perform better.

“For me to lead well, I need to become more of who I am.”
