Join hosts Karen Garnett and Brett Attebery as they welcome Pierre Koshakji, Chairman of the Board of Heroic Media and Co-Founder & Chairman of the Board of Authentic Leadership Foundation! From a different angle on impact this week, we’re excited to share this inspiring conversation with our Board Chair about the incredible Virtuous Leadership and Authentic Leadership training programs we have recently completed – and how transformative they have been in each of our lives – both personally / individually and professionally / organizationally / collectively.  

“Definitions are everything” – and “the definition” of virtuous and authentic leadership – to which we are all called! – is “to bring out the greatness in others”!  

Learn about Alexandre Havard, the “Virtuous Leadership Pyramid”, the “Quad Chart Challenge”, the importance of understanding and maximizing our primary and secondary temperaments and signature strengths, and how each individual discovering and living out their mission and purpose will yield magnanimous impact on the world!  

There’s something for everyone – watch, enjoy, and share!

Join host Karen Garnett as she welcomes Colonel (Ret.) Dr. Sister Dede Byrne, POSC, an active missionary and superior of her Little Workers of the Sacred Hearts religious community in Washington, D.C., surgeon, and APRN (Abortion Pill Reversal Network) provider, for Episode 79 of The National Prayer Luncheon for Life Pro-Life Impact Show! Sister Dede served as one of the inspiring Prayer Leaders for our 2022 annual prayer & celebration event, and returns to the show to share exciting updates about the expansion of ministry services within her religious community which include offering free ultrasounds and counseling to abortion-determined mothers – often brought from the sidewalks outside two of the late-term abortion facilities in D.C. which commit abortions throughout the entirety of the third trimester – free emergency housing for pregnant mothers in need, as well as fighting against euthanasia after the recent loss of one of her dearest mentors. Sister retired with the rank of Colonel from the United States Army in 2009 after 29 years of service in the military, grateful for the opportunity to have “served the brave soldiers” while deployed to Afghanistan. Sister’s service also includes hands-on ministry in the rubble of the Twin Towers after 9/11, caring for the sick during the earthquake in Haiti in 2011, and annual medical missions to Haiti and Iraq. She’s “a living saint” and incredible witness and inspiration to us all! Watch and share!

Join hosts Karen Garnett and Brett Attebery as they welcome Emily Berning, Co-Founder and President of Let Them Live! Let Them Live was founded by Emily and her husband Nathan in 2019 because they were connected with an abortion-minded woman who was homeless because she couldn’t pay her bills. They emptied their bank account and gave her the financial assistance she needed to keep her baby. After saving her and her baby from abortion, they founded Let Them Live to help moms and give others the opportunity to experience the same joy that comes with saving a life! Let Them Live envisions a culture where women never feel like abortion is their only option simply because of their financial situation. With 73% of women having abortions due to financial burden, Let Them Live offers them financial support so that they can choose life instead – having already helped save 600 precious Moms and their babies from abortion! Fasten your seatbelt as you hear Emily’s passion as she shares about Let Them Live’s exponential growth in just 4 years as their mission spreads like wildfire across the country!
