In Episode 57 of The Christian Capitalist, Rich Sanders sits down with Jessica Baldwin, Director of Strategic Sales & Outreach at GoodWorks Mission, to talk about faith, ambition, and finding purpose in today’s demanding work environment.
What happens when success, pressure, and long hours start pulling you away from what matters most?
Jessica shares her journey from corporate sales to a more purpose-driven path, opening up about burnout, chasing money, and the moment she realized that success without alignment isn’t success at all.
The conversation dives into how faith can guide career decisions, why so many young professionals feel lost after college, and how to build a life where work supports your purpose—not replaces it.
They also explore how to naturally live out your faith in the workplace, why passion matters more than titles, and how earning more can actually mean giving more.
In this episode, they explore:
• Can your career align with your faith?
• Why so many young professionals feel unfulfilled
• The difference between chasing money vs purpose
• How to bring faith into the workplace naturally
• Capitalism, competition, and giving back
If you’ve ever felt stuck in your career, burned out, or unsure of your direction, this episode will challenge how you think about success—and what it really means to live with purpose.
