163: Leading Through Brokenness, Healing from Church Hurt, & Choosing Obedience with Nicki Koziarz

Have you ever experienced church hurt? Have you had moments that made you question whether you’d ever step foot into church again? Or have you ever walked through unexplainable loss that made you wonder if God is truly there or cares about you?   In today’s conversation, Holly and I talk with Nicki Koziarz to hear about her leadership journey and her story. You’ll hear Nicki’s take on what it means to be a leader, what the worst form of leadership looks like, and how a deep church hurt led her into an unexpected journey of leading other women.   You’ll also hear how Nicki’s life has been impacted by mental illness and how Nicki has seen God’s faithfulness through devastating losses. Finally we dive into how leaders can respond to others when they are experiencing doubt or loss.   I know you’re going to be blessed by this conversation with Nicki, and I truly believe it will be an encouragement to you.
