109. All Good Things End: My Finale Episode

109. All Good Things End: My Finale Episode
To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven. (Eccl 3:1 NKJV) If you’ve been listening for a while, you may have noticed some consistency back towards the end of last year and then a drop off. I had a team of 2 amazing women who helped me produce this podcast and to show up consistently on social media. In November after attending an influencer event in Nashville, I started some soul searching around this podcast. I made the decision to not invest financially in having a team to edit and produce the podcast and help me with my social media presence on IG @strongherme. I had no idea when I made that decision, that a few months later, I would be making another bigger decision about the podcast. I’ve cried a few tears thinking about all I plan to share with you today. My first episode of this podcast went live Feb 2017. Back then it was name the StrongHer podcast. If you go back and listen to that first episode, it’s a clip of my message from the 2017 You Are Stronger Than You Think Women’s Event. Our theme that year was Who Am I? In that episode I share the origins of the 'You Are Stronger Than You Think' message, stories from my own life of how God uncovers purpose and calling. The previous year’s event included a Friday night event and 5K race. It came with some harsh criticism from an attendee. - it was my greatest fear and my wakeup call: I needed to be the leader my vision deserved. I needed to ask for help; I needed to push beyond the fear of criticism to be a more brave and authentic leader. After some deep reflection, prayer and talks with my husband and friends, I’m discerning it’s time to bring this podcast to a close. My initial purpose for starting this podcast was to have a platform to share women’s stories and their expertise, as I affirmed women that there is grace to be successful as keepers of the home and as professional women. This journey has produced more in my life than I could have known to ask for and the growth I’ve experienced in 4 years, in part, due to the discipline of publishing this podcast, is something that I not only wouldn’t trade, but I also highly recommend this or some other creative pursuit that requires you to stretch, as your own personal development tool. Here are just 3 of the ways I’ve grown, as a direct result of this pursuit: I’ve learned authenticity through this podcast. It has required me to process my own thoughts about topics. I’ve learned new skills, capabilities (listening, interviewing, technical skills around podcasting). I’ve learned new things about myself. I’ve reclaimed my voice through this podcast. When I say “voice”, sometimes I’m referring to your actual voice; other times I’m referring to your influence, your mission, your values, your perspective, your story. Your voice is one of the parts of you that identifies you in this world. I’ve learned how to tend to my own heart while staying faithful to a vision in my heart/soul, without constant validation of its impact. Talk about Hebrews 3,4. Hebrews 3: 12 Make sure that your own hearts are not evil and unbelieving, turning you away from the living God. 13 You must warn each other every day, while it is still “today,” so that none of you will be deceived by sin and hardened against God. 14 For if we are faithful to the end, trusting God just as firmly as when we first believed, we will share in all that belongs to Christ. Hebrews 4: 6 So God’s rest is there for people to enter, but those who first heard this good news failed to enter because they disobeyed God. 10 For all who have entered into God’s rest have rested from their labors, just as God did after creating the world. 11 So let us do our best to enter that rest. These 3 things alone are enough for me. I am confident I have gone all in with this and that before I could even recognize or articulate it, God has been ordering my steps and working out things in me in this process. I believe my intended purpose and the one God has worked out in me over the last 4 years has been fulfilled and I am incredibly proud of this body of work. In your favorite podcast app, you can listen to over 100 episodes that will encourage you as you work the plan God has entrusted to you. My version of entering God’s rest is an act of surrender, an act of obedience, an act of trust. I trust God with where all this has been leading and there’s apart of me that believes that it’s always been leading to right where I am now. None of my work has been in vain. It has all mattered. Before you go… In 2022 I am resting from the work of daily/weekly visibility online. I am not resting from my primary work of leadership coaching and consulting. As a matter of fact, I believe freeing up the mental energy, time and resources required to produce this podcast, will give me renewed energy and focus for my work. In case you aren’t aware, my work is centered around helping mission-driven CEOs/leaders become the leader their vision deserves through activating their strengths and the strength of their team. What that looks like in this current season is (a) I am partnering with the leader of a global DEI organization to provide leadership coaching and diversity training for her corporate and nonprofit clients. (b) I help business and ministry leaders who have reached a level of mastery in their field plan, produce and launch a digital leadership development resource that creates an additional stream of income in their business or ministry. (c ) I provide private coaching for mission-driven women CEOs who want to become the leader their vision deserves through activating their strengths and the strength of their team. If any of these resonate and sound like the type of support you are also needing, let’s schedule a 30 min virtual coffee date at . To stay connected for ministry or personal connection, I am on IG @kendratillman. For business/ministry support and encouragement stay connected with me over on Linkedin or join my email list at StrongHer.me. There is a button for a free ebook, Stronger Together. Signing up for this ebook adds you to my list of connections. Ministry wise, my husband and I co-lead a marriage ministry called Living Well Today.

108. We Find What We Look For with Alexandra Kuykendall

108. We Find What We Look For with Alexandra Kuykendall
I hope you will be challenged and inspired by this week's episode of the podcast. I am talking with my friend and fellow "world changer for good", Alexandra Kuykendall. Alex speaks on issues of how faith impacts everyday life. She encourages us to listen well and communicate with generosity and kindness. She has authored four books: Loving My Actual Life, Loving My Actual Christmas, The Artist’s Daughter: A Memoir, Loving My Actual Neighbor and her newest, "Seeking Out Goodness: Finding the True and Beautiful All around You". Philippians 4:8 tells us where to center our thought life. It is the roadmap for seeking out goodness. How does considering what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable in someone else show us more of God’s goodness? After the last 2 years we've had, is it possible for us to still see the good in others? In this episode Alex, ultimately, reminds us that we find what we're looking for and the more we seek out goodness and the more we look for the positive, the easier it will be for our brains to identify what is good. When we are encourage our listeners to look for the good. This is not a dismissal of accountability. It's a challenge to not conform to the attitudes and behaviors of the culture around us, but to make room for the Holy Spirit to transform our thinking through the truth of scripture.

La’Vista is the founder and CEO of 31 Marketplace, an agency committed to helping women cultivate their own culture of work-life balance by leveraging systems and self-care.

In this episode we invite you in to see how we determine and internalize our word for the year and some of our ongoing methods for staying on top of our goals and why neither of us is buying a pretty planner this year.

98: My Evolution As a Woman: My 40s
September is my birthday month so we are taking a little walk down memory lane. I’ll share how I grew from the inside out in each season of transition. We’re calling this series “My evolution as a woman”. As I share my truths, I hope it will ignite in you a desire to reflect over each season of transition in your life and anywhere you’ve been stagnant you’ll be re-energized.

September is my birthday month so we are taking a little walk down memory lane. I’ll share how I grew from the inside out in each season of transition. We’re calling this series “My evolution as a woman”. As I share my truths, I hope it will ignite in you a desire to reflect over each season of transition in your life and anywhere you’ve been stagnant you’ll be re-energized. This week I share from my 30s. I was navigating my identity as a dreamer. Uncovering my strengths and my unique path and purpose.

95. My Evolution As A Woman: Late Teens
September is my birthday month so we are taking a little walk down memory lane. I’ll share how I grew from the inside out in each season of transition. We’re calling this series “My evolution as a woman”. As I share my truths, I hope it will ignite in you a desire to reflect over each season of transition in your life and anywhere you’ve been stagnant you’ll be re-energized. This week I want to share from my late teen years. Our teen years are a time when we really have to begin discerning what’s right for us and what’s not; what’s going to take us in the direction we want to go and what will take us away from it. As I have evolved as a woman, I have learned to trust the nudges from God I feel in my soul. I’ve learned the more I trust, the quicker I’m willing to trust the next time. How we learn to trust ourselves or follow our instincts: It’s partially instinctual. It’s partially wisdom gained from past experience. It’s partially risking failure or disappointment. // Show Notes Scripture: Proverbs 3:5,6 TPT // Join us for our Fall Activation Circle.

At the start of the July 4th weekend, the news broke that Sha'Carri Richardson, a track and field star, would be banned from competing in the 2021 Olympics because of marijuana use. People rushed to post and make comments on social media without knowing the full context of why she was banned. As we all know, false, misleading or incomplete information spreads like wildfire on social media. Like many things that get turned into sound bites and memes there's layers to her story.

There is a true connection that is made when you hear someone’s words in their voice. I think one of the powerful elements of podcasting is you hearing my voice. Our voice tells a story.

87. Authenticity & The Power of Words
This month we're discussing the power of words. My love and passion for words is one of the things that makes me, me. Inspiring, empowering, impactful words are on the walls in my home, on my bookshelves, in my phone and on my vision boards. I am very careful with my words, because words shape us! Our thoughts, hopes, dreams and goals have been influenced by the words used to describe us and how we have been talked to. Words can bring life or death. So, for the next few episodes, I’ll be sharing some of my favorite sources of wisdom aka books, songs, podcasts, etc 🙂 My hope is that these sources of wisdom will benefit you too. // Show Notes: The Gifts of Imperfection by Brene' Brown July #WorkYourPlan Book Club Selection: "The Gift: 12 Lessons to Save Your Life" by Edith Eger Edith Eger is a clinical psychologist and a Holocaust survivor.

86. Ready to Rise with Jo Saxton

86. Ready to Rise with Jo Saxton
In episode 86 of the podcast, I share the recording of my conversation with the author of our March #WorkYourPlan book club selection, Jo Saxton. Jo Saxton is an author, speaker, podcast host, and leadership coach. She has dedicated her career to growing leadership teams around the world and empowering women to find their purpose in their personal lives and in leadership. Born in London to parents who immigrated from Nigeria, Jo credits her family’s unrelenting work ethic and the grace of God for the bold, tenacious approach she takes to sharing her wisdom on identity, influence, and living an authentic life. She is characterized by her effervescent honesty and warm approachability, leaving audiences with practical next steps in areas that are usually a bit ambiguous. In addition to work as an author, Jo has also spearheaded an initiative aimed to help women grow their leadership skills. Jo lives in Minneapolis with her husband, Chris, and their two daughters. Jo's book, Ready to Rise, is one of the few I've seen that addresses the intersection of your identity as a leader, a Black woman and a Christian and provides a Biblical context for talking about leadership and calling. **** Show Notes Keep up with Jo: *** Have you ever dropped the ball? I want to invite you to join me for the #WorkYourPlan Book Club. For May I wanted a book that speaks to the pressure moms and women, in general, feel to do it all. So, we are reading Tiffany Dufu’s book, Drop the Ball: Achieving More by Doing Less, as our May book selection. I often joke that this book should be in the marriage and family section of the book store, rather than the business section. In Drop the Ball, Tiffany shows women how to cultivate the single skill they really need in order to thrive: the ability to let go. She recounts how she learned to reevaluate expectations, shrink her to-do list, and meaningfully engage the assistance of others - freeing the space she needed to flourish at work and to develop deeper, more meaningful relationships at home. Did you know? Even though women are half the workforce, they still represent only 18 percent of the highest level leaders. The reasons are obvious: Just as women reach middle management, they are also starting families. Mounting responsibilities at work and home leave them with no bandwidth to do what will most lead to their success. Drop the Ball urges women to embrace imperfection and to expect less of themselves and more from others - only then can they focus on what they truly care about, devote the necessary energy to achieving their real goals, and create the type of rich, rewarding life we all desire. I'm sure this topic is going to spark some lively discussions. Don't miss it!

84. What courageous conversation are you avoiding?

84. What courageous conversation are you avoiding?
To minimize the possibility of offense when engaging in a courageous conversation: Pray in advance so that you have God's wisdom and his heart for the interaction. State the facts first. Then share your story (how it impacted you; FYI your story is not a fact. It’s how you see it.) Now switch to listening. Ask for their perspective. Remember the reason/purpose for the conversation. Your goal is not to convince, compel or control. You want to move towards understanding and accountability. *** Mentioned in this episode: Crucial Conversations: Tools for Talking When Stakes Are High by Kerry Patterson, Joseph Grenny, Ron McMillan and Al Switzler *** Have you ever dropped the ball?

83. What is your dream opportunity?

83. What is your dream opportunity?
Steps to move past comparison: Return to the vision. You need a visual reminder. Pray for discernment about what is a longing for something God wants for me and what is me coveting what was meant for someone else. Seek wise counsel from (friends, family, mentors, coaches) those who know what you’re feeling, they’ve navigated this road before and they can help you with your perspective. The answers to our desires often take on a different form than we expected. Work your plan. Get busy with the work God is calling you to. Look for those people who run beside you to see it fulfilled. *** March is Women’s History Month. I want to invite you to join me for the #WorkYourPlan Book Club. For the month of March we are reading Jo Saxton’s book, Ready to Rise. Ready to Rise tackles the real-life issues women face–workplace harassment, sexism, low self-esteem, financial woes, power battles, and old wounds–while providing meaningful wisdom from Jo’s own journey to leadership. Added to this personal reflection are stories of empowered women from the Bible. Jo then calls on readers to invest in the next generation of women and build new communities where diverse female leadership can flourish.
