What happens when Kingdom leaders stop pretending the fight is only external and start naming it for what it is? In this episode, Latondra celebrates one year of the Disruptor’s Council with a raw, unscripted conversation between herself and five members of The Council — Sheena Payne, Barbara Perez, Esq., Abby Goffredo, Kristine Goebel, and Bristan Heaven — about how to tell spiritual interference apart from a natural business problem. The conversation addresses how a good thing quietly becomes an idol, why the enemy works to magnify every reason not to obey, and why the majority of spiritual warfare isn't something happening to you — it's something happening in you. If you've ever built something to honor God and watched it quietly take over your life instead, or assumed every setback was an attack when the real work was either internal or a common business challenge, this conversation will challenge you, convict you, and equip you to tell the difference.
