223. The Way We Think About Leadership Is Dead Wrong (Part 1): Why Influence Matters More Than Output

In this episode, I’m challenging one of the biggest lies we’ve believed about leadership — that our value comes from how much we produce, how busy we stay, or how available we are to everyone else.

If you’ve ever felt like your leadership is being measured by your output instead of your impact, you are not alone. I’ve lived it — juggling tasks, striving for approval, and believing that burnout was just the cost of leading well. But I’ve learned (and am still learning) that this is not God’s design for leadership.

In this first part of a two-part series, I’ll share what it looks like to shift from hustle-driven leadership to influence-driven leadership — the kind modeled by Jesus. I’ll walk you through the lies we often believe, the biblical leadership patterns we can actually follow, and practical ways to lead from presence, purpose, and peace.

Let’s trade productivity for presence. Let’s lead from overflow instead of over-functioning. And let’s remember: we don’t have to prove our leadership. We just have to be aligned with the One who called us to it.

 

I hope this episode blesses you!

Xoxo,

Tanya
