Bob Goff
Bob spent decades as an attorney, trying to figure out how to live a whimsical, impactful life. These days, he calls himself a “recovering lawyer” because after practicing law for 25 years, then becoming the Honorary Consul to Uganda, he gave up his law firm to pursue writing and speaking full time. He’s a New York Times bestselling author several times over, runs a popular weekly podcast, and recently turned farmer at The Oaks just outside San Diego, California.
Chuck Mingo
Chuck is the founder and CEO of LivingUNDIVIDED, a program that takes participants through life-changing moments of racial healing. Part of his life’s work is to help ministry leaders stand in places where people view the church as irrelevant regarding injustice and offer them a different picture of Jesus. Chuck is the proud husband of Maria, who he has been married to for the better part of two decades. They have three children, and live in Cincinnati, Ohio.
Jim Bechtold
Jim is the Chief Innovation and Impact Officer of the CEO Forum. He has been a leader in the family entertainment industry for 15+ years, including leading key strategies designed to eliminate gender bias against women and girls.

Laura Smith I The Urgency of Slowing Down
Hi friends! Our guest today is my good friend Laura Smith. Laura has been on the show before! You can go back and listen in to our conversation about mental health here: https://open.spotify.com/episode/1JKdKa65RDIFYmbsQruXhT?si=LZ4kGvKiQfOYKnJXAgtvZA! Laura is a gifted writer, a Bible teacher, and she is so wise! We talk on today's episode about her New book: The Urgency of Slowing Down: Biblical Wisdom for Everyday Renewal. If you're feeling worn down, exhausted, scattered, or like the tiniest thing might push you over the edge, you're going to want to tune into today's conversation. Our challenge coming out of this episode is to consider: Where can you be more intentional in slowing down? Choose one of the slow-down challenges that Laura and I talked about, for example: Do something slowly…for me, that’s reading…taking the time to slow down as I read and really take in what I’m learning. Focusing on that learning rather than checking a box of finishing the chapter! I hope you are loving the Faith Driven Leader. We would love to hear from you!
