FAITH-DRIVEN BUSINESS & LEADERSHIP PODCAST
Welcome to Off-Balance, a faith-driven business and leadership podcast for entrepreneurs and professionals who want clarity, structure, and sustainable growth in the way they lead and build their businesses.
Hosted by Dr. Brooks Demming, business coach, author, and creator of the R.I.S.E. Coaching Framework, this podcast explores the leadership, HR, and operational challenges that quietly create pressure inside growing businesses.
Each episode takes a Coaching Lens approach to the real issues entrepreneurs face as their businesses grow, including leadership clarity, HR strategy, founder burnout, team structure, and decision-making.
If you’ve ever felt like your business depends too much on you, or that success has created more pressure instead of more freedom, this podcast will help you understand why.
Dr. Brooks Demming brings more than 15 years of leadership and HR experience, along with a Doctorate in Business Administration, to help entrepreneurs move beyond hustle culture and build organizations that function with clarity and stability.
Through practical insight, real examples from coaching and HR work, and faith-centered leadership principles, Off-Balance helps leaders understand what’s really happening beneath the surface of burnout, overwhelm, and operational chaos.
You’ll learn how to:
• Build resilience in life and business
• Create structure and systems that support growth
• Lead teams with clarity and confidence
• Strengthen boundaries and decision-making
• Keep faith and family aligned with your calling
Because building a business should not come at the cost of your peace.
If you’re tired of guessing, juggling everything, and wondering how to keep God at the center of your leadership journey, you’re in the right place.
Each week, you’ll gain practical tools, grounded leadership insight, and a faith-centered perspective to help you build a business that supports your purpose instead of draining it.
You don’t have to choose between business success, family time, and a strong faith foundation.
You can thrive in all three.
🎙️ Follow the podcast and walk this entrepreneurial journey with clarity, confidence, and faith — even when life feels a little off-balance.
