In this episode titled "How to Overcome the Fear of Failure," I dive into one of the most common yet often overlooked challenges that leaders face: the fear of failure. Drawing from my experience in executive coaching and personal struggles, I explore how this fear can silently impact even the most confident and competitive leaders, draining their energy and stalling their progress. I share a personal story of overcoming this fear when launching my leadership podcast and YouTube channel, and I provide practical, faith-based strategies to help you conquer this fear in your own life. Join me as we unpack how God equips us with power, love, and a sound mind to push past fear and fulfill our God-given purpose. Questions to ask yourself: 1.    Where am I holding back in my life because of fear?2.    Where do I need to stir up that gift within me?3.    Take some time to evaluate your power, your love, and your sound mind.4.    If I had no fear, what would I step into or out of today?5.    What is that “thing” that I know I should do, but I’m not because of fear?  Purchase The Christian Leader Blueprint book today: https://www.ryanfranklin.org/blueprintbook  Download The Christian Leader Blueprint – Short Guide (Free): https://www.ryanfranklin.org/blueprint   Take the Christian Leader™ Self-Assessment (Free):https://www.ryanfranklin.org/clselfassessment   Learn more about the BRAND-NEW Christian Leader™ Community Coaching:https://www.ryanfranklin.org/communitycoaching   YouTube and Audio Podcast: https://www.ryanfranklin.org/leaderpodcast   Connect with Ryan: Email: info@ryanfranklin.org Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/rnfranklin/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rnfranklin/ Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rnfranklin/   Audio mastering by Apostolic Audio: https://www.apostolic-audio.com   #leadership, #thoughtleadership, #ministry, #pastor, #pastors, #churches, #leadershiptraining, #churchleader, #churchleaders, #influence, #leadershipdevelopment, #coaching, #executivecoach, #leadershipcoaching, #productivitycoach, #productivity, #growthmindset, #theproductiveleader, #ChristianLeader, #ChristianLeadership, #LeadershipPodcast, #FaithAndBusiness, #PodcastInterview, #ChristianEntrepreneurship, #KingdomImpact, #PodcastInspiration, #LeadershipJourney, #PurposeDriven, #ChristianPodcast, #LeadershipEssentials, #LeadershipFundamentals Send us a text
