PQ for Christians
Welcome to PQ for Christians, a global podcast exploring the intersection of Positive Intelligence (PQ) and Christian spirituality. This podcast brings together believers from across 26 countries and a variety of Christian traditions to engage in a transformative journey of mental fitness, faith, and personal renewal.
Each episode unpacks how Shirzad Chamine’s Positive Intelligence framework aligns with biblical principles, helping Christians move beyond self-sabotaging thoughts and embrace a renewed mind in Christ (Romans 12:2). Through deep conversations, personal insights, and practical applications, we explore themes of:
✅ Renewing the mind – Overcoming fear, doubt, and judgment through faith and mental fitness
✅ Living in the True Self – Identifying and healing saboteurs while embracing your God-given identity
✅ Bridging faith and neuroscience – Exploring how spiritual growth and cognitive science work together
✅ A global Christian conversation – Uniting believers from diverse backgrounds in a shared journey
✅ Christlike living – Applying PQ insights to ministry, relationships, and daily life
Whether you're a Christian leader, coach, or someone seeking a stronger, more resilient faith, this podcast invites you into a supportive and inclusive space where transformation happens. Join the conversation and discover how mental fitness and faith can reshape your life, leadership, and walk with God.
PQ for Christians is proudly sponsored by The Center for Biblical Coaching and Leadership (TCBCL)—equipping believers and leaders with biblically centered coaching and leadership training for personal, organizational, and church renewal.
Tune in and take the next step toward wholeness in Christ!

A Conversation with Vanessa Donaldson

With a Master's Degree in Administration & Certification in Life Coaching, she leads in-person mentorship groups along with her "Online Base" community, offering camaraderie and support with a touch of nature and spirituality.

Vanessa brings her coaching to nature's beauty and keeps her clients motivated and inspired wherever she goes with holistic tools such as Positive Intelligence activities to slow down and reset off-grid in a hectic world.
