Lead Together
We believe that the quality of your life and leadership depend on the quality of your relationships.
Lead Together is the podcast designed for Christian men and women striving to lead more effectively at home and work.
In a world of constant change and demands, it's common for couples in leadership to feel disunified, unprepared, or reactive.
That's why we're here—to guide you with practical leadership skills that will increase your impact in all your spheres of influence.
Your hosts are Nick and Kim Bogardus.

The Hidden Costs of Growth: The Paradox Many People Don't Talk About
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Growth is worth celebrating. But no one talks about what it actually costs.
In this episode, Nick and Kim Bogardus get honest about what happens when organizations, churches, and families grow faster than their systems can keep pace — and why even healthy cultures can fracture under the pressure.
Drawn from real client work and personal experience, this conversation gives you language for what you're feeling and a practical framework for navigating it well.
What you'll walk away with:
- The four specific challenges every growth season creates
- Why culture doesn't scale automatically and what to do about it
- The right person / right seat problem, and how to spot it early
- A simple question to ask yourself before your next season of growth
