One Life Series| Episode 1: The Myth of Separation — Nevertheless show with Bidemi Mark-Mordi

Why do leaders who pray deeply in private lead so differently in public?

In this episode of the One Life series on Nevertheless with Bidemi Mark-Mordi, I unpack one of the most quietly destructive habits in high-functioning leadership: the belief that your faith belongs in one room and your boardroom belongs in another. This isn't a problem of scheduling or workload. It's a problem of identity. And it's exhausting you more than you know.

If you've ever felt the gap between who you are on Sunday and who you show up as on Monday, this conversation was made for you.
