As 2025 comes to a close, this final episode of the year invites Christian women leaders to pause, reflect, and lead forward with intention.

In The 2025 Leadership Audit, Julie Wagner walks you through a faith-grounded, strategic review of the year - helping you identify what no longer belongs in your leadership, and what must carry forward into 2026.

This episode is designed for Christian women in leadership - founders, executives, entrepreneurs, and decision-makers who are ready to move beyond survival mode and lead with clarity, conviction, and confidence.

Instead of rushing into goal-setting or hustling into the new year exhausted, Julie challenges listeners to conduct a true leadership audit - one that honors faith, stewardship, and long-term impact.

- Why reflection is a critical leadership discipline—not a luxury

- The biblical principle of “numbering your days” and how it applies to leadership

- How to audit the ROI of your energy and identify hidden burnout

- Where unclear communication cost leaders the most in 2025—and how to correct it

- Why hustle culture undermines sustainable, faith-driven leadership

- How intentional, written goals increase clarity, focus, and follow-through

- What grounded leaders did differently in 2025—and why it mattered

- How to enter 2026 with confidence instead of chaos

Julie also shares personal leadership lessons from her decades in executive leadership and entrepreneurship - offering honest insight into what worked, what didn’t, and what she’s leaving behind.

- Psalm 90:12 (NLT) — “Teach us to realize the brevity of life, so that we may grow in wisdom.”

Julie closes the episode with a powerful Stop / Start / Continue Leadership Exercise, helping you intentionally define what you are releasing, embracing, and carrying forward into the next year.
