Lost Your Spark? Restore Hope, Confidence, & Faith with Dr. Brandi Kelly | Ep 68
Have you lost your spark lately? Maybe it’s burnout, feeling stuck or frozen, or just too many ideas pulling you in every direction. You want to make progress in your calling—but it feels just out of reach.
In this powerful conversation, I’m joined by Dr. Brandi Kelly, founder of Spark Hope EDU, who brings over 20 years of heart, hustle, and hands-on experience in education and leadership. Brandi is a licensed clinical social worker, a Maxwell Certified Coach, and the author of Lead with H.O.P.E.: Building a System of Self-Efficacy. Together, we unpack how trauma, stress, and striving can dim your spark—and how to reignite it through simple daily habits rooted in faith, gratitude, and truth.
We talk about:
How trauma impacts confidence and leadership (even when you look “successful” on the outside)
Why your brain defaults to survival and how to shift it toward peace
What the science of hope really looks like—and how it connects to your faith
The daily practice that helps you rebuild your confidence and trust God again
Practical ways to move from fight-or-flight into rest, renewal, and purpose
If you’ve been feeling hopeless, overwhelmed, or unsure where to begin, this episode will remind you that your spark isn’t gone—it’s just waiting to be reignited.
