    Ep 26 | What is the Difference Between Influence and Leadership? with Meg Baatz

    Meg Baatz — the OG guest of Life on Side B and co-founder of Kaleidoscope — joins Josh to talk leadership in faith and sexuality spaces. Fresh off stepping away from her role at Kaleidoscope, Meg unpacks the real difference between influence and leadership, why trust in pastors and institutions has collapsed across generations, and what integrity looks like when your public and private life are on the line. They close with advice for anyone desiring to lead as well as those let down by a spiritual leader.

    Ep 23 | What is Spiritual Direction, Really? (ft. Dr. Beth Broadbooks)

    Josh sits down with Dr. Beth, spiritual director and teacher at Kairos University, to explore  spiritual direction. Together they unpack what spiritual direction actually is, how it differs from therapy and pastoral care, and why creating sacred space for God to speak is more powerful than any advice or answer a director could give. Whether you're curious about finding a spiritual director or considering becoming one yourself, this conversation will leave you with a deeper understanding of what it means to slow down, release control, and trust the Spirit.
