And yet, this is the foundation for every healthy team and ministry. In today\u2019s episode, I unpack one of the most overlooked killers of team health and mission: low differentiation. Drawing from Family Systems Theory, the leadership of David and Jesus, and my own hard-earned lessons over decades, I\u2019ll share four critical reasons why low differentiation sabotages your team\u2014and what you can do about it. When leaders overfunction, avoid hard conversations, or build their identity on others\u2019 approval, it fractures their soul and destabilizes the team. But when you lead from a solid self\u2014rooted in God, not the demands around you\u2014you raise the maturity level of everyone around you. This is the crucible of spiritual leadership: becoming yourself in Christ, for the sake of others. Listen in. It may change how you lead forever.   ","author_name":"The Emotionally Healthy Leader Podcast","author_url":"http:\/\/ehleader.libsyn.com\/podcast","html":"
