In this episode of The Healthy Christian Leader, Dwight Habermehl talks with Rachel Quirt about how grief, faith, and mental health intersect in both life and leadership. Drawing from her transition from pastoral ministry into counseling and the personal loss of her sister, Rachel shares how grief reveals hidden pain, deepens our understanding of God’s character, and fosters growth when we allow ourselves to fully process it. Together, they highlight the importance of staying spiritually rooted, embracing emotional honesty, and prioritizing regular mental health care, reminding leaders that a healthy inner life is essential for leading others well.
