Next Up Podcast

Whether it’s moving from one job to another, one house to another, or one season of life to another, how we transition is key. If we don’t learn to recognize times of transition in our lives, we’ll be left wondering why something feels “off.” How do we transition well? Jonathan and Dustin talk about that in this episode of the Next Up Podcast.

As leaders, how do we actually do big things? How do we get started? We can gain some valuable insight from Joshua in Joshua 6. In this episode, Jonathan and Dustin talk about the steps Joshua went through that we can learn from to do something big and outside of ourselves.

We all find ourselves in them from time to time. They're unhealthy habits. While we don't always know how we got into them, it's important we learn to recognize them. In this episode, Jonathan and Dustin talk about how to recognize and get out of unhealthy habits in our life and leadership.

Quotes from the episode:

Yes, it's the broadest podcast title you've ever seen. No, we didn't really boil all of leadership into 3 things. What you will get on this podcast are 3 areas that we often overlook when leading our organizations or even families. We'll discuss things that many of us may have never thought of when leading others. The 3 things discussed are...

Leading Relationally - Find personal common ground

Leading Environmentally - Set the thermostat

Leading Directly - Mold consensus, don't bow to it

When leadership challenges come, we have two choices, let them change us and push through or let them choke us and stunt our forward progress. In this episode, Jonathan and Dustin talk about five things that can ensure we push through and let challenges change us and the things we lead.

These 5 things are...

1. Be grateful

2. Keep the goal in mind

3. Keep people first

4. Practice patience

5. Remember the past victory
