Women aren't the problem, the systems are

LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, December 11, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Organizations across industries face the same persistent challenge: women are leading at exceptionally high levels, yet not nearly in high enough numbers. Award-winning author Suzanne Nadell, known for her groundbreaking book Wired to Lead: Being the Leader the Church Didn’t Think You Could Be, argues that the issue is not women’s readiness; it’s the systems companies use to identify, evaluate, and elevate leaders.

New Course!

A faith-filled reset for women carrying pressure, responsibility, & expectations without burning out

January doesn’t need a new you.

It needs a steadier you.

If you lead — at work, at home, or in ministry — January doesn’t feel light.
It feels clarifying.

The pace picks up.
Expectations return.
And the pressure you carried last year doesn’t magically disappear.


This isn’t a surface-level reset.


It’s a deep reset — designed for women who know the pressure isn’t going away and want to lead well anyway.


Learn More

This reset is for women who are tired of “pushing through”

You’re not overwhelmed because you’re weak.
You’re tired because you’re dependable.

People rely on you.
Decisions come to you.
And faith has often been framed as “just trust harder” instead of giving you space to breathe.

This reset doesn’t ask you to fix yourself.
It helps you reset how you’re carrying everything.

2025 Voyage Atlanta Article

Appreciate your sharing that. Let’s talk about your life, growing up and some of topics and learnings around that. Who saw you clearly before you could see yourself?
I write about some of the women who saw my leadership potential in my book, “Wired to Lead.” One woman was a lady who went to my church. She was also a youth group leader and my hairstylist. I remember the pep talks she gave me while sitting in her chair as she gave me a 1990’s perm.

Leaders in newsrooms also saw leadership in me. Marian Pittman, who is the President of Content for Cox Media Group, saw my potential and gave me so many opportunities through the years.

And my mom. It’s hard to be a mom. I see that now that my son is older. We are often the last to get credit. The older my son and I both get I see the steps my mom took to help me reach my full potential.

Bold Journey Article

We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Suzanne Nadell a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.

Hi Suzanne, really happy you were able to join us today and we’re looking forward to sharing your story and insights with our readers. Let’s start with the heart of it all – purpose. How did you find your purpose? 

Finding my purpose was definitely a journey. For the longest time, I was convinced discovering my purpose was about one specific thing. Over time, through reflection, surrounding myself with wise people, and perhaps just getting older, I discovered my purpose had many layers, and I could fulfill my purpose in all aspects of my life.
