In this episode, host Christine Caine brings together a powerful compilation on the theme of Leading as a Woman, featuring conversations with Dr. Kate Coleman, Dr. Anna Morgan, and a listener driven Q&A. From navigating institutional barriers to developing emotional intelligence and spiritual resilience, this episode is packed with wisdom and encouragement. Whether you’re leading in ministry, the marketplace, or your community, you’ll be equipped to lead with clarity, courage, and purpose—no matter the environment. SHOW NOTES:Owning Your Calling as a WomanDr. Kate Coleman shares how she stepped into leadership despite cultural resistance, learning that God didn’t call her in spite of who she was—but because of it. From Science to SeminaryKate opens up about her unexpected shift from a career in science to becoming the UK’s first Black female Baptist minister—and the challenges she faced along the way. Sticky Floors and Stained-Glass CeilingsKate unpacks both the internal and external barriers that hold women back, from self-limiting beliefs to institutional systems that still resist women’s leadership. Seven Areas of Leadership FormationDr. Anna Morgan outlines the seven key areas God uses to form female leaders—from spiritual growth and emotional intelligence to communication and relationships. Why Environment and Networks MatterAnna explains how denominational culture and leadership structures affect the trajectory of a woman’s calling—and why creating opportunities for women is vital. Knowing Why You’re in the RoomChristine shares from decades of experience being “the only woman in the room,” and the importance of knowing your assignment rather than trying to prove your worth.
