New weekly podcast connects Scripture, leadership clarity, culture, communication, retention, time stewardship, and one practical move leaders can apply each week.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
EVANSVILLE, IN, August 6, 2026 – Shawn Collins, founder and CEO of Shawn Collins Consulting and creator of Retention = Attraction™, will launch What Moves First, a weekly, Scripture-grounded leadership podcast designed to help leaders identify the first decision, conversation, habit, standard, or rhythm that needs to move before better results can follow.
The show officially launches Monday, August 10, 2026, with new episodes released weekly at https://shawncollins.com/what-moves-first/.
What Moves First is built around a simple leadership question: every leader wants better results, but what has to move first? Each episode starts with one original Shawn Collins leadership quote, connects the principle to Scripture, and turns it into one practical move leaders can apply in their team, culture, calendar, or business within the next 168 hours.
For Collins, the launch is both strategic and personal. The show began after a long season of writing, scrapping, praying, and running through the same question: does the world need another podcast? The answer he came back to was rooted in Matthew 5:14-16: do not hide your light.
“This show is not about adding more noise,” said Collins. “It is about stewarding the message God has placed in front of me. Matthew 5 reminds us that light is not meant to be hidden. Psalm 90 reminds us to number our days. What Moves First is my way of helping leaders take those truths into the week and choose the move that matters most.”
The podcast brings together several bodies of Collins work, including Retention = Attraction™, his original 52-week quote series, The Growth Standard voice, My 168 BANK, and First Domino thinking. Topics will include leadership clarity, communication, trust, team culture, difficult conversations, retention, manager habits, time stewardship, standards, decision-making, and follow-through.
The first episode, Commitment Over Comfort: The Decision That Changes Your Life, launches August 10. The episode is built from Collins quote: “Your life shifts the moment your commitment outweighs your comfort.” Scripture anchors for the episode include Proverbs 16:3 and Luke 9:23.
