Carry the Weight: Jonathan David Lewis on Character, Identity, and the Story of Work
Jonathan David Lewis is president of McKee Wallwork, an Albuquerque branding agency, and the author of The Rebuilders, a book of short daily readings for leaders walking through hard seasons.
His firm recently finished a national study of 3,000 workers, and what they found is a workforce that feels transactional, futureless, and suffering, living inside an old story of work that no longer holds together.
Jonathan shares how a difficult year in 2018 taught him that every decision shapes character, the warning signs that a company is quietly losing its identity, and why his faith keeps pulling his work and his calling back together.
If you lead young people at work or at home and wonder why the old motivators don't land anymore, his practical encouragement to become the chief storyteller for your team is worth your time.

Get Out of Your Own Way: Marcia Jerry on Surrender, Identity, and Restored Ground
Marcia Jerry is the founder of Above All Cost and the author of Restored Ground, a book that names the relationships and patterns we've learned to call familiar, even when they were never meant to feel normal.
Marcia and Tiffany share a connection back to Azusa Pacific University, and Marcia's own path wound from the Bay Area to Houston before God settled her in El Paso, right where a 2019 list of dreams eventually led her.
In this conversation, Marcia unpacks the four things her book identifies as the patterns that keep people stuck in unhealthy relationships, familiar, enough, alone, and reality, and walks through how each one shows up not just at home, but on our teams and in our workplaces.
She and Tiffany also talk candidly about imposter syndrome, what it looks like for a leader to actually practice what they preach, and why letting go of a plan you've held tightly can be the start of something better than you imagined.
Connect with Marcia on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/aboveallcost and on TikTok at https://www.tiktok.com/@aboveallcosts.
Find Restored Ground on Amazon at https://a.co/d/04H6dWdb, or locally in El Paso at Christian Outlets.
