Explore the transformative power of vulnerability in leadership with us in this episode recorded at SEEK in Salt Lake City.

We examine the profound stories of Christ’s crucifixion and baptism, which illustrate the immense courage and humility essential for true leadership. By sharing personal anecdotes and reflections, we uncover how acknowledging our strengths and weaknesses can build trust and foster genuine relationships within our communities.
