    Ep. 39 Living With Your Feelings
    Aug 21 2025
    Ever notice how the most successful leaders aren't necessarily the smartest ones in the room? They're often the ones who've mastered something we rarely talk about in leadership circles—their emotions. In this raw and insightful episode, Carson Pue, Chuck, and Ingrid Davis tackle the uncomfortable truth about emotional intelligence in leadership. Chuck opens up about his Midwestern upbringing, where feelings were seen as "unpredictable" and "no good"—a mindset that nearly sabotaged his marriage and ministry. You'll hear Carson's vulnerable story about his unexpected anxiety attacks and how his doctor's refusal to prescribe medication led to a breakthrough therapy session involving... well, let's just say dinosaur imagery played a role. Ingrid shares her research on "holistic holiness" and why ignoring our inner world stunts our spiritual growth. The conversation explores practical strategies like the WAIT acronym (Why Am I Talking?), the difference between being an emotional thermometer versus thermostat, and why Jesus' tears matter more than you might think. They discuss the unique challenges female leaders face with emotions and how to create healthier team cultures. This isn't about becoming more touchy-feely—it's about becoming more effective. Because here's the thing: if you can't understand what's happening inside you, how can you truly lead others? Ready to explore the intersection of faith, feelings, and leadership?
