In this episode, Pastor Brad talks with Katie Allred—professor, author of Church Communication and community builder. Katie shares her story of growing up in the church, the importance of community, and how faith has shaped her journey.
When Katie was just 18 years old, her father passed away, a loss that deeply impacted her and her family. Driven by her natural achiever personality, Katie pursued success, but eventually experienced corporate burnout. This season led to severe depression, anxiety, and even suicidal thoughts.
In this conversation, Katie opens up about her path to recovery—what helped, what she learned, and how she now encourages others who might be struggling with similar challenges.
