What if the very thing you see as a limitation is actually the place where God’s greatest purpose is revealed?
In this powerful and heartfelt episode of She Speaks Life, Jayme sits down with CEO, leadership mentor, and first-time author Lisa Nichols to talk about her newly released book, Something Extra: Uncover Your Strengths, Unlock Your Potential, Unleash Your Impact. This conversation is rich with faith, wisdom, and real-life stories that will stir your heart and challenge the way you see leadership, purpose, and obedience to God’s call.
Lisa shares the deeply personal story behind Something Extra, inspired by her daughter Allie, who was born with Down syndrome and truly embodies “something extra” — extra joy, extra love, extra courage, and extra faith. Through Allie’s life, Lisa learned profound lessons about humility, identity, fearlessness, and what it means to fully use the gifts God has given us for His glory.
Together, Jayme and Lisa explore:
Why leadership always starts on the inside
How humility shapes effective, God-honoring leadership
The danger of seeking man’s approval instead of God’s
What it means to abide in Christ (John 15) and bear lasting fruit
How obedience, gratitude, and surrender shape our daily walk
Why your gifts are not meant to be hidden, but shared
Lisa also opens up about a life-altering car accident that reshaped her understanding of humility, the power of vulnerability in leadership, and why consistency and surrender are essential for long-term impact. You’ll be encouraged by her family’s nightly gratitude tradition, her biblical insights, and her reminder that what you do today is part of God’s eternal story.
This episode will inspire you to unwrap the gifts God placed inside you, lead with humility, and live with eternal perspective — because the world truly needs what you carry.
📖 Something Extra is available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and at somethingextrabook.com
🎧 Listen in, be encouraged, and step boldly into the “something extra” God has placed within you.
