Leading with strong Christian values in a secular workplace can feel like walking a tightrope — wanting to honour God without overstepping boundaries, staying true to your faith without feeling “too much” or “not enough.”
This episode is for every Christian woman who has ever wondered:
“Can I lead boldly for Christ… even here?”
The answer is yes — and today you’ll learn how.
In this conversation, we explore:
<ul>
<li>
how to stay grounded in your convictions without becoming defensive, preachy, or apologetic
</li>
<li>
the subtle ways Christian leaders accidentally dim their light at work
</li>
<li>
practical, Christlike behaviours that speak louder than words
</li>
<li>
how to set boundaries, hold standards, and navigate workplace culture with wisdom and grace
</li>
<li>
the difference between leading with your faith and leading about your faith
</li>
</ul>
If you’ve been feeling the tension of being a Christian woman in a non-Christian space, this episode will give you clarity, peace, and a renewed sense of purpose.
Your Next Step
If you often feel unsure, small, or hesitant about expressing your leadership in secular spaces, The Imposter Syndrome Blueprint will strengthen your confidence and help you lead with calm, steady, Christ-anchored conviction.

141 | Faith First: Leading With Christian Values in Secular Spaces

Ranked Top 2% Globally Do you wish that you could lead your team in a way that honours and glorifies God? Are you struggling to overcome self-doubt as a leader and have a desire to be more confident in your role? Do you want the courage to deal with difficult people but don’t want to upset anyone? Well, you’re in the right place! On this podcast, I’ll teach you how to lead like Jesus, even if you’re not allowed to speak of your faith in your workplace. You’ll learn to become bold and confident as a leader, to speak up and say what God wants you to say and to finally know that you are worthy to be in your current role. Because God chose you, not because you are already a perfect leader, but because HE wants to mold you and use you to be an instrument in the kingdom of God. Hey, I’m Rika, and for the past 10 years, I’ve been in middle-management leadership roles, where I have led various teams, from big to small, and experienced my fair share of working with difficult people, having tough conversations, hiring and firing people and managing team dynamics. I thought that I could rely on worldly knowledge of leadership to get me through. I attended various leadership courses and listened to many leadership podcasts, but I was still struggling as a leader. I was feeling frustrated and to be honest, I was not enjoying my leadership role and felt like quitting more often than I probably should have! I finally realised that if I wanted to be the leader that I truly desired to be (which was a leader who wasn’t shy to speak up, a leader who honoured God with her actions and a leader who could build a cohesive team without the drama), I needed to partner with God and find a Christian leadership mentor to guide me and keep me accountable. I committed my leadership journey to God and partnered with HIM. I started working with a mentor and stepped out in faith as I did hard things every single day. And I can’t wait to share what I’ve learned with you! If you’re ready to lead your team in a way that honours God, I’m excited to be your mentor! So, grab your notebook and pen (and don’t forget that Chai Latte), and let’s unlock your God-given leadership potential!
