Crossing the Threshold Leadership Podcast
Life and leadership are full of threshold moments, those spaces between what was and what’s next, when we’re ready to move forward and want to do it well.
Crossing the Threshold helps mission-driven small business and nonprofit leaders navigate what’s next in life and leadership—without losing what matters most.
Through honest, practical conversations drawn from their own journeys, James and J.C. guide you from knowing what matters to actually living it.
