How can you maintain integrity in a culture of self-promotion? A Christian at Facebook gives us a view from the front lines in this week's podcast.

Speaking up, especially when you're not in a position of authority, is not easy. When you're in a lower position, there's a big incentive to keep quiet, but sometimes that's not right for you and it's not right for your company. So, how do you know when to speak up, and how can you do it effectively? With guest Joi Freeman.

Have stress and exhaustion become your default state? We talk with guest Sarah Magidoff about slowing down and creating boundaries when you're overworked. Sarah is the founder of CANOPY, a boutique creative studio, and the Instagram hashtag movement #slowentrepreneur

It's easy to go through life on autopilot. We're told we should go to school, get a good job, and enjoy ourselves. But at some point, you may find yourself wondering about the purpose of it all. Why do you do what you do? And what do you do now? Having a definition of success can help you answer these questions. How you define success can guide how you live every day and the decisions you make. So how do you define success? With guest Dr. Nicholas Pearce, author of The Purpose Path.

Guest Austin Channing Brown talks about faith, work and the invisible burden of being a Black woman in the workplace. Austin is a leading voice on racial justice, author of I'm Still Here: Black Dignity in a World Made for Whiteness, and producer and host of The Next Question, a video web series expanding our imaginations for what racial justice can be. www.TNQShow.com

Perfectionism at work may sound like an asset, but it can ratchet up anxiety and steal your joy, energy, and creativity.

With guest Erin Slone.

Through conversation, scripture and stories, we invite God into work's biggest challenges so that you can live out your purpose in the workplace.
