Hey, it’s Annemarie, hope you are keeping well. It’s been some time since I released a podcast episode. It’s been a very eventful year and I’ve been supporting my husband after he was diagnosed with cancer at the beginning of this year. I put everything on hold, including my podcasts so I could be there for him during this time.
Anyway, I wanted to pop in to let you know about one of the only events I’ve been able to say yes to, in case this was something you’d be interested in attending. It’s The Kingdom Impact Summit 2025: Faith-Driven Entrepreneurship That Transforms Lives.
It’s the first-ever Kingdom Impact summit where business becomes mission and mission becomes movement - it goes from Nov 4-6, 2025, and I am one of 35 speakers. My specific topic is From Invisible to Influential Trusted Authority - even if you’re in a crowded marketplace.

[Ep#237] How Taking Control of Your Career Leads to Growth and New Opportunities

Welcome to another inspiring episode of the Women in Leadership Podcast! Today we are joined by the incredible Dr. Christi Diamond, a naturopathic doctor and relationship expert, for a powerful conversation about authenticity, faith, and resilience in both life and business.So many women leaders find themselves struggling to balance the expectations placed upon them - both personally and professionally - while staying true to who they are. Dr. Diamond understands this challenge deeply and shares why trusting yourself is the foundation for living with authenticity. She opens up about the experiences that can cause women to lose that trust and what it takes to rebuild it in a way that empowers both our personal and professional lives.During our conversation, Dr. Diamond also speaks to the role of faith and spirituality in finding strength and clarity through life’s challenges. She highlights how a deep spiritual connection can serve as an anchor, providing the guidance and resilience needed to navigate difficult seasons.Another important topic we touch on is how to move beyond setbacks without allowing them to define us. So often, we internalize disappointment and let it shape our identity in limiting ways. Dr. Diamond offers a fresh perspective on resilience, showing how past hardships can be steppingstones rather than stumbling blocks. Whether you are seeking to step more fully into your purpose, build stronger relationships, or cultivate a deeper sense of self-trust, this episode is filled with valuable insights that will leave you feeling encouraged and equipped for the journey ahead. Dr. Christi Diamond also offers healing retreats and sessions for those looking to continue their personal growth. You can learn more about her work by visiting her website at thehealingcoach.com. Thank you for tuning in, and for being part of our incredible community of women leaders. Now, let’s get started! <h3>Here are the key takeaways:</h3><ul>
<li>
Trust yourself for authenticity: Dr. Christi emphasized that true authenticity starts with trusting ourselves. She shared how reconnecting with our feminine essence can unlock our full potential, allowing us to live an authentic and fulfilling life.</li>
<li>
Faith &amp; spiritual connection: Faith can be a guiding light in times of uncertainty. Dr. Christi shared how a spiritual connection provides strength and direction, especially when navigating challenges in life and business.</li>
<li>
Navigate disappointment without being defined by it: It's essential not to let disappointments label us. By focusing on possibilities and reaching for the highest within ourselves, we can rise from setbacks stronger than before.</li>

<description>Welcome to another inspiring episode of the Women in Leadership Podcast! Today we are joined by the incredible Dr. Christi Diamond, a naturopathic doctor and relationship expert, for a powerful conversation about authenticity, faith, and resilience in both life and business.
So many women leaders find themselves struggling to balance the expectations placed upon them - both personally and professionally - while staying true to who they are. Dr. Diamond understands this challenge deeply and shares why trusting yourself is the foundation for living with authenticity. She opens up about the experiences that can cause women to lose that trust and what it takes to rebuild it in a way that empowers both our personal and professional lives.
During our conversation, Dr. Diamond also speaks to the role of faith and spirituality in finding strength and clarity through life’s challenges. She highlights how a deep spiritual connection can serve as an anchor, providing the guidance and resilience needed to navigate difficult seasons.
Another important topic we touch on is how to move beyond setbacks without allowing them to define us. So often, we internalize disappointment and let it shape our identity in limiting ways. Dr. Diamond offers a fresh perspective on resilience, showing how past hardships can be steppingstones rather than stumbling blocks.

Whether you are seeking to step more fully into your purpose, build stronger relationships, or cultivate a deeper sense of self-trust, this episode is filled with valuable insights that will leave you feeling encouraged and equipped for the journey ahead.

Dr. Christi Diamond also offers healing retreats and sessions for those looking to continue their personal growth. You can learn more about her work by visiting her website at thehealingcoach.com.

Thank you for tuning in, and for being part of our incredible community of women leaders. Now, let’s get started!

Here are the key takeaways:


Trust yourself for authenticity: Dr. Christi emphasized that true authenticity starts with trusting ourselves. She shared how reconnecting with our feminine essence can unlock our full potential, allowing us to live an authentic and fulfilling life.


Faith &amp; spiritual connection: Faith can be a guiding light in times of uncertainty. Dr. Christi shared how a spiritual connection provides strength and direction, especially when navigating challenges in life and business.


Navigate disappointment without being defined by it: It's essential not to let disappointments label us. By focusing on possibilities and reaching for the highest within ourselves, we can rise from setbacks stronger than before.
