You love God. You lead faithfully. But you sense there's more.
You want a deeper life with God.
A calmer inner world.
A way of leading that feels honest and sustainable.
You don't need more information.
You need lasting transformation.
​​​
Let me help you through one-on-one work, the Steady Leader cohort, or retreat leadership—spaces designed for real change.
Something Feels Off
You shouldn’t have to:
-
Live in a constant rush
-
Carry everything alone
-
Feel disconnected from God while working for God
-
Feel surprised by your same old reactions
-
Lead on the outside while feeling unsettled on the inside
After our work, you'll:​
​
-
Slow your inner pace
-
Experience God with you in your daily life
-
Respond instead of react
-
Lead from a calmer, steadier place
-
Live with more freedom and integrity
There's a deeper way to live and lead
Transitions
Change the Map
You know that feeling when your old ways stop working?
It might be a sabbatical.
A dark night of the soul.
A change in your calling.
An invitation to deeper intimacy with God.
Or the strain of carrying more than you were meant to carry—and often doing so alone.
​
Sometimes it's the disorientation that comes from real transformation—because even good change can leave you feeling unsteady.
These are the moments when old maps no longer work and when having a trusted guide matters.
You Don't Have to Navigate This Alone
HI, I'M RUSTY MCKIE
I guide leaders through seasons of transition where growth, loss, or change feels disorienting.
​​
When old ways of relating to God, yourself, and others stop working—and the next step isn’t obvious.
Through spiritual direction and somatic coaching:
We slow down.
We listen to God.
We find a steadier way forward.​​​​
What Begins
To Change
This Work isn't Quick Fixes.
It's Slow Formation.
Over time, leaders I walk with often notice:
​
-
A calmer inner world, even when external pressures remain
-
Less reactivity—problems no longer feel bigger on the inside than they actually are
-
A growing sense of stability, especially in moments that once felt overwhelming
-
A renewed experience of God’s presence, not just in prayer, but in daily leadership
-
Greater clarity and discernment, without the pressure to rush decisions
-
Freedom from old patterns that used to show up under stress
-
Leadership that feels more honest and integrated—the inside and outside begin to match
-
Confidence to navigate transition, even when the path forward isn’t fully clear
