After nearly twenty years in corporate leadership—serving as an executive at some of the largest companies in the world—I recently made the decision to step away and go full-time into entrepreneurship and ministry, and I know I'm not alone. 

According to a 2023 McKinsey report, nearly 70% of Americans say they’ve considered leaving their jobs to pursue more meaningful work, and more than 5 million new business applications were filed in the U.S. in 2022 alone. That tells me something: people are hungry for purpose over paychecks, for calling over comfort.

In this episode, I want to talk about what it means to truly follow God into the unknown—to leave behind what’s safe, stable, and culturally celebrated in order to step into purpose.
