Episode Synopsis

In this joy-filled and deeply meaningful episode, I sit down with Natalie Jagers—a follower of Jesus, pastor’s wife, mom of three, and the Elementary Principal at Evangel Christian Academy here in Colorado Springs.We talk about what it looks like to lead with faith, especially in the world of education, and how Natalie stays spiritually grounded through early morning Bible reading (and coffee!). She shares how she creates space for the Holy Spirit in her leadership and how she’s learning to balance grace and growth in a demanding role.Natalie opens up about her marriage—how she and her husband keep Christ at the center, how they’ve grown through hard seasons, and how their faith carried them through one of the most difficult times in their lives: the loss of her father and the premature birth of their daughter.We also talk about leaving a legacy—what it means to raise children in faith, surround ourselves with godly influences, and live a life that points to Jesus. Of course, we sprinkle in some fun too—with our Marriage Metaphors, Legacy Lightning Round, and a Rapid Fire moment at the end.Natalie’s wisdom, warmth, and joy will leave you encouraged to keep showing up in your own season—with grace, purpose, and faith that lasts.
