Leaders aren’t Just Born w/Sarah Jakes Roberts Part 1
In this session from the Called to Connect Conference, Sarah Jakes Roberts explores how a lack of vision—not a lack of talent—can cause leaders to miss their calling. Referencing Proverbs 29:18, she unpacks how leadership isn’t just about guiding people, but about stewarding a vision with depth, clarity, and conviction. In Part 1, she breaks down the difference between traditional and visionary leadership, and how to bring true ownership to your current role—regardless of your title. If you’ve ever questioned your ability to lead, this episode will help you build confidence from the inside out. Don’t forget to share, rate, and review. Subscribe so you never miss an episode.

We’ll discuss ways to nurture your emotional well-being, how to recognize signs you may be running low, and I’ll share some practical ways on how to start building a stronger, healthier you from the inside out.

The Engine of Purpose
We talk about scaling businesses, leading teams, and making bold moves—but how often do we stop and ask: Can my body handle the life I’m building? In this episode of The Called Podcast, we’ll unpack why your body is one of your most important leadership assets. Rooted in spiritual truth and backed by science, this conversation reframes health not as vanity, but as a strategy. You’ll learn how movement, nutrition, and rest directly impacts your decision-making, emotional resilience, and capacity to lead. This isn’t just a fitness episode—it’s an episode about stewardship. Remember, your calling is big. And your body is how you carry it. Next week, on May 16th & 17th, I’m hosting Called to Connect in Los Angeles—a two-day leadership intensive designed to spark bold ideas, sharpen strategy, and build meaningful partnerships through impactful sessions and intentional conversations. There are still spots left, and I hope you’ll meet me there. Don’t forget to share, rate, and review. Subscribe so you never miss an episode. And remember—you’re not random, you’re called.
