How to Improve Self-Awareness in Leadership - Live Consulting with Anna Sasser-Christian, LCSW | WP 160
Manage episode 520043720 series 3559787
Hey friends, it feels so good to be back on the mic! After months of prepping for the Wise Practice Summit and connecting with so many amazing practice owners in Greenville, I'm coming into this episode fired up and full of gratitude.
If you've ever had one of those seasons where you thought, "This is just too much… maybe I should quit," I've been there too. But let me tell you, God always shows up. The Summit was such a beautiful reminder that the work we do—growing our practices, leading our teams, and serving from a place of faith—truly matters. And when we keep showing up with perseverance and prayer, He blesses it in ways we can't even imagine.
Today, I'm thrilled to introduce you to Anna Sasser-Christian, founder of Little Dove Counseling in Walnut Creek, California. Anna has been part of the Wise Practice community for a while now, and I've watched her grow from a solo therapist to leading a thriving group of seven clinicians — all while becoming a new mom!
In this live consulting episode, Anna brings a thoughtful question about leadership — not just how to manage a team, but how to show up as a Christ-centered leader who creates clarity, connection, and peace within her practice. We're diving deep into self-awareness, spiritual grounding, and what it really means to lead with faith at the core.
So grab your coffee, settle in, and let's get into a conversation that's going to encourage you, challenge you, and remind you that you don't have to do this work alone.
