1. Talk about it to someone you trust. 2. Take steps to be aware of what causes my anxiety or stress. 3. Reset, rest, and rely on God's strength. Great encouraging podcast!
Being self aware is huge. As I feel it coming on, I take needed steps, of course I pray for strength, wisdom and guidance. 1. In that moment, I take a walk. 2. Then I get with a trusted friend to discuss how to work through it. 3. If left unchecked or alone, I can wallow in it, so I need accountability to keep me non check :-)
When he started describing his tightness in his chest, I immediately knew God led me to this Podcast! All of that anxiety and fear is what I've been dealing with the last year in leadership, (and really every area of my life) and I couldn't figure out what it was because I'd never dealt with anything like this before! Thank you so much for this!
Pastors Craig and Shawn, thank you so much. Am blessed by your frameworks, learnings, wealth of wisdom, as well as compassion for people. May you pursue this call to leadership~
What a amazing talk. Wow I am so grateful for the both of you to speak openly. This is a very important topic and thank you to be so open and transparent. 🙏🏻
I love his reasons for being confident. I have the same reasons but I didn’t have the words until he shared. As a fellow church leader I appreciate the transparency of this video. This video helped me feel not so alone. Thank you both!
Very inspiring and so real!! Thank you pastor Sean for being so authentic. You taught me how to be courageous in admitting ....facing...and attacking my fears and flaws. Blessings to you in abundance.
Powerful. My daughter absolutely loves it and strongly insists I read it I think because she knows how much I struggle with the same stuff and she'll read it several times over because she likes it that much. Pastor Shawn is real and like Pastor Craig says is raw and its evident.
This! I have been feeling this same way for over a month! Thank God I'm not alone. Thank you for sharing! I'm not better yet but with this encouraging word, I know I'll get better.
Graig 2019 Brisbane backstage GLS PLUS I was at the edge of what became a “compassion burn out” your words and video message to my wife have been such a blessing, along with the podcasts. Thanks for helping remove the stigma of burnout.
Thank you so much for being so real about who you really are behind the scenes. May the Kingdom of God continues to get bigger because of your leadership skills!🙏💙🦋
Amazing content, we don't need to hide but be open , share and ask for help. we think we are doing good by hiding but actually it's not. Thank you, God bless 🙏🏻 Thank you.
So good. I don't know that I would have picked this book up just by the title alone, but after listening to the podcast, I can't wait to read it. Thank you to both of you for your vulnerability, and for being such great leaders.
I didn't know what to do but now I am leaning that I must talk about it and that I must find some kind of activity to do so that I can keep my mine active and cream Thank you
Wow , same the bigger the organization got the more pressure he felt to keep up the act, same here I felt like the more I rose in leadership the more pressure I felt to keep up the act 😭, I don’t act nomore but this is just how I felt its like there so much expectations.
Ahhhh the gym was mine to... but I listen to leadership podcasts and sermons as well... I guess I'll have to re evaluate now. Prayer, quiet time, 12 step meetings and playing guitar! Also i love nature. I relate alot to this tho
Big personal expectations = destructive expectation to achieve “super-self”. Where did your need for approval start? How old were you when you first felt THAT way?? Someone in your past showed you or told you that you would be abandoned or unacceptable, if you didn’t “man up” or BE something beyond what you felt capable of. A MAN would be urged THIS Way normally, but “nothing to excess”. When we are too young to be capable of some expectation, fear continues to build up in your mind and emotions, every time you feel challenged, and the body finally says, “No more”. Panic symptoms are uncontrollable. The Body is saying “i want to live, so STOP doing what you are doing to me”. Trying to “force it to leave” does NOT work. In this case, “mind over matter” is not a solution. Yes. Don’t let yourself GET TO THAT POINT. “One day at a time”. There are early signs you can look for as you begin to know your emotional needs, and mental needs, and physical needs, and learn to honor them. If you ignore your needs, you will suffer again, and again, and again. You have to be a “student of your own needs”. There are degrees of anxiety, and you can grow in learning what you need to know, in this crazy speeding culture. God never expected people to live at the pace they are living at, at this time in history. There is also “shame” and “guilt” attached to NOT BEING A “SUPERMAN”. Americans need to “back up” from the technological advances, and set boundaries so that they may survive as a “human race”. Men have been expected to “match” each other in strength and endurance. COMPETITION is a killer, when it is taken to its extreme. And you will get no “pats on the back” from the media, the commercials, the NFL, NBA, MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL, or climbing the ladder to be on the “Forbes list of wealthiest men”, or just the WORLD. Power, fame, money…always the challenge to deal with as “temptations”. Suggestion: REST whenever you can, and learn to know “who” you are, “why” you are, and what you need to learn to keep doing, or stop doing. REALITY is the BEST TEACHER. It’s my favorite “language”. Most people are NOT facing REALITY, unfortunately. BUT THEY COULD IF THEY WANT TO. God BLESS YOU!!
I loved this, but what if you have a spouse who is unwilling to show grace when that anxiety comes? who because they've never experienced it, are not willing to empathize or show support? I have suffered depression for many years, but anxiety came a little over a year through a trial in my marriage. I am getting professional help, but at home I don't feel the support
To hear a leader share his vulnerabilities makes me wonder how can managers not do more for Customer Service Rep’s mental health. In that line of work, you deal with so much & to add your own struggles can make anyone break. Smh
@@Moebz818 yea, who needs faith when you have medical professionals. You people are such pragmatists that who really needs God anymore anyhow. We have such great leaders who model how to get professional help, why even consider God-centered thinking/living? We got this, eh?
Beacuse Read book of Anixty and feeling not well beacuse your mind every time Yes ihave this problem Tru and patient go to stressed but not realize stressed go to patient go to depressions then mind out of orders so must all discuss about pastor Craig groishil Gód Bless you and healing in the name of Jesus Christ King of King Hallelujah 🙏💯
Today your Read bible psalm chapter 51 and thanks for Jesus Christ your life Saviour always blessing in Christ power and the strength of God faith No lemits
WAIT WAIT!!! READ THIS John 14:27 Psalm 34: 4-5 I had a very and i mean very traumatic childhood. These versus were showntoo me by our mighty G O D add this with a giant cup of faith and Youll be healed. If Your wise You won't ignore this.
I guess this question and video did not apply to most as people are not in the leadership roles. Most people are the normal person and have extreme anxiety and there is no one to help.
Will you go to Heaven? Here’s a quick test: Have you ever lied, stolen, or used God’s name in vain? Jesus said, “Whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.” If you have done these things, God sees you as a lying, thieving, blasphemous, adulterer at heart, and the Bible warns that one day God will punish you in a terrible place called H_ll. But God is not willing that any should perish. Sinners broke God’s Law and *Jesus paid their fine. This means that God can legally dismiss their case:* *"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have you life.”* Then Jesus rose from the grave, defeating it. Today, repent and trust Jesus, and God will give you eternal life as free gift. Then read the Bible daily and obey it. God will never fail you. (living waters/ray comfort) God bless you .
Instructions guys its not that complicated. You deny anxiousness and you thank the lord for things even if you feel it and you submit to God and seek his face and Holy spirit becuase there is no anxiety in the holy spirit but peace and freedom and desire to be in his spirit all the time no matter what it takes and no matter what God has to change in you you have to be willing and go through the growing pains of denying yourself and what you want for what Jesus wants for you and how he wants uou to br like him in his nature. No matter how bad the attacks get you keep going and seeking more of him and his spirituntil you are completly filled with his power and spirit where there is no anxiety present whatsoever
This is every day btw and even if it takes 4 years you need to understand your always growing you'll never reach the point where you stop learning and growing in the lord but to be filling with his presence means giving up the world and and seeking after the things of God. If your still having these things its because your not fully surrendered and your allowing the enemy to trick you. The only way to stay encouraged and clear is through a consistent relation mship with God that cuts out the worldly things and lives complelty for christ
My passion and powerful Christ curixifid on the cross ❌ Jesus Christ and powerful blood healling powers in the name of Jesus Christ Received all world 🌎 my gole Evechment 100 💯 Achement thanks for Jesus Christ ,
Why is it that “God” is not mentioned until 17:08 into the video (and that was in passing)? More time was given to an article from Harvard than how to look at this through the eyes of faith, seeing Christ in Scripture and applying truth to anxiety? No mention of Christ, the Holy Spirit, the providence or sovereignty of God or His abiding presence, our identity as children of a good God, or the amazing freedom we have in the Gospel in any form..? Is Jesus even needed anymore? The comfort of the Holy Spirit? Based on this video from these pastors, nope. I can see why both of these guys battle anxiety. I am not saying faith eliminates any chance but Gods Word and Spirit is desiring to help us walk in peace.
Lol. On a lighter note, they did mention God and His gift around the 11.00mark. Lol. Seriously though, everything about this interview drips God and He isnt only found when we mention His name
This is a leadership podcast. He is grounded in the word and will reference His foundation, but the “talk” is leadership based on purpose, emphasis on leading leaders, not just Christians. If this was a Podcast *about* Christianity, then we can expect more God talk and scripture.
Good insight. I would think a Christian pastor would be compelled to share the gospel in any setting. He talks too much about people following him, rather than people following Christ.
@@Moebz818 I thought this was about anxiety… so leaders use techniques other that faith in God and reliance on him? There is another way? A new way? Friend, you have sold out and bought a lie.
@@elizabethbelcher494 so there are leaders who suffer with anxiety and there are answers other than God? There are leaders who don’t need God to lead well in this area? Got it.
Don't werried about Read Anixty beacuse so depressing Read all only for given you books for Craig groishil give you and Read all Gód helping hands on the Head and change your mind and heart and all Addcaction leave it in the name of Jesus Christ King of King Hallelujah Amén
What do you do to combat anxiety and stress in leadership?
Label it, and open up to those around us about it!
always pray through it and give it to God and ask for his help .
1. Talk about it to someone you trust. 2. Take steps to be aware of what causes my anxiety or stress. 3. Reset, rest, and rely on God's strength. Great encouraging podcast!
Being self aware is huge. As I feel it coming on, I take needed steps, of course I pray for strength, wisdom and guidance.

I have a routine of good diet, exercise, prayer and the word, and definitely staying in community🙏
