Pressure doesn’t always arrive as a crisis.

Sometimes it shows up as inconvenience — a delay, a disruption, or a moment when control quietly slips away.

In this episode of Summit After the Storm, leadership author and speaker Bart Wilbanks reflects on an unexpected equipment failure that delayed recording — and how that small disruption exposed something deeper about control, impatience, and leadership posture.

Drawing parallels from Mount Kilimanjaro, Bart explores how pressure reveals what preparation often hides. On the mountain, control disappears quickly — you can’t manage the weather, the altitude, or how your body responds. What’s left is not performance, but posture.

Using Psalm 139:23–24 as a reflective anchor, this episode invites leaders to consider a different question. Not “How did I handle that?” but “What did that moment reveal about me?”

This episode is for leaders navigating:

• Pressure and stress in leadership

• Loss of control and unexpected disruption

• Emotional reactions under pressure

• Self-awareness, humility, and growth

• Faith-based leadership reflection

🎧 If pressure has been surfacing things you didn’t plan to see, this conversation is for you.
