Customer Reviews
Unqualified
I was really encouraged by the the part in the podcast where Jenn Benham spoke about feeling unqualified. Something I’ve been wrestling with for years. It’s so good to hear that others deal with the same thing at times. She said, (paraphrased) Choose to use your time to equip yourself with the resources that you have. Make the best of the situation you are in, it takes discipline. Don’t feel bad if you do not feel qualified, that’s a really healthy place to be, because the Lord can do so much with that.
Where we live in the Bay Area, I haven’t connected with anyone to have a mentor in the area of being a woman in leadership. I’m so excited for more of these podcasts to come out. It’s great to hear from women who are in similar situations and with more time under their belts than I have. Thank you for doing this!
