Dr. Ioana Popa | Psychiatrist Educator, Executive Coach, Speaker & Spiritual Care Formation

For Christian Women Professionals & Servant Leaders called to live, lead, and serve from renewal for the Kingdom. Top 2.5% Globally Ranked. → Do you feel at times stressed, depleted, or on a “busy treadmill,” with Sunday night blues - even though you love what you do? → Do you sense blocks in reaching your highest potential for the Kingdom, despite already carrying significant responsibility and impact? → Do you struggle to fully replenish yourself and access the peace that surpasses all understanding - no matter how many programs you’ve tried - and worry that self-care and deep renewal will only add more to long to-do list? → Do you wrestle to stay grounded, clear, and expansive in your impact - especially in high-stakes situations? If this is you, welcome. You are not lacking discipline. You are not lacking faith. More often, what’s missing is sustainable renewal. Many of the solutions available today act like band-aids - placed on top of an already burdened foundation, shaped by chronic stress, cultural conditioning, and misconceptions about what it truly means to live and serve in Christ. In this show, we take a different approach. Through the integration of science, psychology, and Christian faith, this show helps you: → Return to a place of inner renewal - accessing the “living waters” of Christ from within → Align your body, mind, heart, and soul - reducing inner fragmentation and restoring a grounded inner life. → Simplify your daily habits from the inside-out - building sustainable rhythms that support your life and leadership without adding pressure. → Access clarity, peace, and grounded presence - especially in high-responsibility and high-stakes moments. → Expand your capacity to lead and serve with joy and peace - not from striving, but from renewal, alignment, and co-creation with God.

It is about learning how to return - again and again - to God within, where your strength is renewed, your inner life is restored, and your leadership flows from your soul. Hi, I’m Dr. Ioana Popa - co-founder of Team For The Soul® Institute, physician-psychiatrist educator, spiritual care & executive coach, speaker, and trainer. As a woman deeply committed to serving others and to my faith, I found myself saying yes to every need, carrying increasing responsibility, and quietly moving toward chronic stress and burnout. I believed that catching up on rest during weekends or vacations would be enough - but it was not. After experiencing burnout twice, I sought help through both psychology and Christian faith - only to find fragmented guidance, often disconnected, or even at odds. Over time, I realized that if I wanted to live, lead, and serve in Christ with clarity, energy, and joy, I needed something different. A simple, integrated way of living - rooted in renewal, grounded in Christ, and supported by both science and faith. This is the work I now share with you. If you are ready to grow toward your highest potential - from a grounded, renewed foundation in Christ - you are in the right place. Let’s begin.

    323 | The Art of Listening: How to Keep Serving Others, with Rev. Dr. Margaret Kibben

    What happens when you are called to carry extraordinary responsibilities, but life brings challenges that even your experience, leadership, and faith cannot resolve? Rev. Dr. Margaret Kibben knows this tension well. After 35 years of serving in the Navy and Marine Corps, including as Chief of Chaplains for the Navy, she became the 62nd Chaplain of the U.S. House of Representatives, while also navigating personal challenges of raising a daughter with cystic fibrosis. Through these experiences, she discovered a powerful meaning behind God's invitation to "Be still and know that I am God." Rather than simply finding a quiet moment, what if being still means learning when to stop struggling and allow God to be God? Because even in the middle of the things we cannot fix, God is there. In this conversation, you'll discover:✨ Why she chose to truly live alongside the people she serves.✨ How her family leaned on faith after a difficult diagnosis.✨ What helps her care for people across political divides.✨ What it means to serve faithfully without carrying everything ourselves. The Bible verse that helps Chaplain Kibben remember that the Lord of hosts is the one Who is in control, is this: "Be still and know that I am God." ~ Psalm 46:10 The God you trust to hold others is holding you, too. So it's time to be still and let God do the rest.

    322 | Starting Over After Divorce: Reclaiming Who God Created You to Be, with Chel Cartmill

    Sometimes, the parts of ourselves we’ve learned to silence are the very parts God is inviting us to rediscover. For years, Chel Cartmill, Next Chapter Transition Specialist & Coach, learned to survive by being the peacemaker and the "good girl" to keep everything together. But through heartbreak, injustice, and 30 hours in jail - after calling for help - God began unraveling the beliefs that kept her living from fear instead of truth. This Renewal Conversation reveals Chel’s powerful story and encourages us all to step fully into being the women God created us to be. Because, like an oak tree that never apologizes for the space it was created to fill, we were never meant to shrink from the life God designed for us. In this conversation, you'll discover:✨ How difficult transitions can uncover the identity God designed for you.✨ Why your body’s signals may reveal more than you realize.✨ The important difference between your skills, talents, and God-given gifts.✨ How to discern your next faithful step when the path is unclear. The Bible verse that guides Chel to put love for God and others at the center of her life is: Jesus said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ 38 This is the first and great commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ ~ 1 Peter 4:10 Click PLAY to listen to this episode now! 👉 https://youtu.be/MJ8d3fw6XpE ____________________ Want to know more about our guest?- Reclaim Website: https://www.pathtoreclaim.com/- A complimentary call: https://callwithchel.as.me/reclaim- Discounted enrollment for Chel’s 10-week Reclaim program 📱What if one simple step could help you stay rooted in Christ every day?The Team for the Soul® App is now LIVE - download it today and enjoy free Christ-centered resources designed to renew your mind, heart, and soul.👉 https://www.teamforthesoul.com/app While you support others, don’t forget yourself.

    320 | The Power of Vulnerability in Communities and Christian Leadership, with Melissa Harrison

    As strong women we often keep serving and leading while carrying grief, doubt, or pain that no one sees. This becomes its own burden, and can make us feel isolated. After a devastating loss shook her faith, Melissa Harrison, President & CEO of 4word, discovered that healing began when one woman had the courage to remove the "mask" and share. Her story reveals why vulnerability isn’t a weakness in leadership, as it’s what gives others permission to be honest, seek support, and heal. Melissa also shares about the upcoming 4word Boldly Conference for Christian women passionate about work and faith, which is happening in Dallas in October, which you don't want to miss (see below for a coupon code). In this conversation, you'll discover:✨ How high-achieving women often hide their deepest struggles.✨ How vulnerability can transform the way women lead and connect.✨ What makes a community feel truly safe and supportive.✨ Why listening can be more healing than offering solutions. The Bible verse that encourages Melissa to trust God in every season is: "And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose." ~ Romans 8:28 NKJV If you’re the person everyone else depends on, this conversation is the permission you need to let someone show up for you.

    319 | Centering Reset: Staying in Flow When Life Gets Busy

    There are seasons when nothing seems obviously wrong, yet something inside no longer feels the same. We continue accomplishing our responsibilities, meeting expectations, and serving others, but the joy, peace, and sense of purpose that once flowed so naturally begin to fade. Our culture tells us that the answer is to work harder, become more productive, or find a better system. Jesus offers a very different invitation. Before He asks us to bear fruit, He invites us to remain connected to Him, because lasting transformation has always flowed from relationship, not striving. In this week's Centering Reset, we'll explore why we quietly lose our sense of flow, what psychology teaches us about fragmented attention, and how abiding in Christ restores the clarity, peace, and fruitfulness our souls long for. Key Points in this RESET episode:✨ Flow begins with connection, not performance.✨ Striving fragments. Abiding restores.✨ Christ is the source of sustainable capacity.✨ Stay connected, and let His life flow through you. 👉 CLICK HERE to rest with God for a few minutes by accessing this podcast episode ______________________ FROM THE VIDEO - John 15:4-5 (NIV)- Psalm 1:2-3 (NKJV)- Galatians 5:25 (NIV) PROGRAMS- Ready to reclaim your JOY, PEACE & PURPOSE without burnout, as you lead and serve in Christ?

    318 | How to Follow God Without Abandoning Your Ambition, with Brittany Gaskill

    For many of us, Monday morning can feel like a tug-of-war between our professional ambitions, personal responsibilities, and the desire to be still and follow God. And we know intellectually that work doesn't have to compete with faith - nonetheless, at times it can feel that way. This is one of the places God invites us to live out boldly. In this Renewal Conversation, Brittany Gaskill, Director of Programs & Partnerships for 4word, offers a refreshing vision for bringing your whole faith into your everyday work. Together, we explore the pressures Christian women face and what becomes possible when women stop navigating their careers alone. Brittany also shares about the upcoming 4word Boldly Conference for Christian women passionate about work and faith, which is happening in Dallas in October, which you don't want to miss. In this conversation, we uncover:✨ Making our workplace a mission field.✨ Surrendering our career and calendar to God.✨ Practical spiritual rhythms to help stay grounded throughout your day. ✨ Strengthening our calling through community and Scripture.
