Episode 13: Leadership When Control Is Lost — Stillness, Stress, and Faith Under Pressure

What this episode covers

Some leadership seasons don’t fail — they go quiet.In this episode of Summit After the Storm, Bart Wilbanks explores leadership when control is lost and progress is forced to stop. Drawing from personal experience, the climb on Mount Kilimanjaro, and Psalm 46:10 (“Be still, and know that I am God”), this episode examines what pressure exposes when momentum disappears and certainty is stripped away.This conversation speaks to leaders and professionals navigating stress, loss of control, forced stillness, and seasons where action is limited but responsibility remains. Bart reflects on why stillness is often resisted, how stress intensifies when control fades, and why faith becomes essential when leadership can no longer rely on motion.If you’re leading through uncertainty, shutdowns, or seasons where waiting feels uncomfortable, this episode offers clarity on staying grounded, faithful, and effective when pressure removes the illusion of control.Follow Summit After the Storm for leadership lessons on pressure, clarity, and resilience.Connect with me at summitafterstorm.com#LeadershipDevelopment#PersonalGrowth#Mindset#ChristianLeadership#Parenting#BusinessLeadership#Motivation#Coaching
