"If you close your grip, you control whether they fly or not."

In this deeply emotional milestone episode of The Flight Club, Charlotte Gambill and Kaitlyn discuss a major transition as Kaitlyn prepares for her next season beyond the podcast. They dive into the "personal backstory" that led to this moment...moving cross-country, the hidden toll of remote work isolation, and the hunger for a physical community that digital spaces simply can't replicate.

Whether you are a leader learning how to hold your team with an "open hand" or someone feeling the "broken wing" of isolation, this conversation is a roadmap for navigating life’s changing seasons with grace.

The Flight Club Podcast is a space for honest, hope-filled, and faith-driven conversations designed to help women in leadership and life discover what it means to rise above limitation, insecurity, and fear. Whether you're leading in ministry, the marketplace, or just trying to make it through Monday—this podcast is for you.

In this episode of The Flight Club, Charlotte Gambill continues a vital conversation on spiritual warfare and the trap of settling for less than God’s best. Following a personal experience of a physical collapse while preaching, Charlotte shares her journey of moving past partial healing toward full restoration.

We often find ourselves in a "recovery" phase where we function but don't feel like ourselves. Charlotte explores why the goodness of God is actually the completeness of God. Using the biblical concept of Shalom Shalom (perfect peace), we discuss how to ensure nothing is missing and nothing is broken in your life.

Most New Year’s resolutions don’t last, so in this Flight Club episode we talk about a better way to start the year: name your year, set your top priorities, and make a plan with enough room for God to direct your steps.

Charlotte shares why vision should inspire you instead of drive you, how to keep your “top buttons” in order so life doesn’t feel out of sync, and why discipline matters—but trust in God’s timing matters just as much. If you’re heading into 2026 feeling overwhelmed or unsure what to focus on, this conversation will help you simplify and move forward with peace.

In this episode we cover:

• Why New Year’s resolutions usually fade
• How to name your year (and why it works)
• Vision vs goals (and how to use both)
• “Top buttons” priorities for family, faith, and work
• How to say no without guilt
• A prayer over the year ahead

What does it really mean to empower others — and not control them?

In this episode of Flight Club, Charlotte dives into one of the hardest leadership tensions we all face: learning how to release people well. Whether you’re leading a team, parenting young adults, serving in ministry, or navigating friendships and transitions, empowerment always requires trust, surrender, and courage.

Charlotte unpacks the difference between encouragement and control, why releasing people can feel personal, and how insecurity can quietly shrink our vision. Using powerful biblical examples, leadership stories, and the imagery of caterpillars, cocoons, and wings, this conversation reframes what healthy leadership truly looks like.

If you’ve ever struggled with letting go, felt hurt when someone chose a different path, or wondered how to send people well without losing the relationship — this episode is for you.

Christmas is beautiful… and crazy. Between the schedules, services, shopping, family expectations, and emotional weight the season can bring, it’s easy to lose sight of the awe and wonder of what Christmas truly is. In this special Christmas episode of the Flight Club Podcast, Charlotte Gambill shares a heartfelt message to help you slow down, breathe, and remember the gift at the center of it all — Jesus.

Charlotte unpacks why Christmas is the story of divinity choosing humanity, how God entrusted Mary to deliver the Savior, and why He still uses us today to deliver hope, peace, encouragement, generosity, and the love of Christ to the world around us.

Whether you’re overwhelmed, grieving, lonely, far from family, or simply longing for a quiet moment in the middle of the holiday rush… this episode invites you to pause and rediscover the true meaning of Christmas.

If you’ve been wanting to fall in love with the Bible again, this episode is for you. Charlotte shares her original poem “Thy Word,” then unpacks how Scripture has become her mirror, lamp, anchor, and daily strength in every season of life.

Together we talk about:

How to approach the Bible with expectation, not obligation

Moving from “checking the box” to truly encountering God through His Word

Creating stillness so your heart can actually hear Him

Using Scripture as your mirror, lamp, compass, and sword

How the Word becomes practical help in marriage, motherhood, anxiety, decisions, and everyday moments

If reading the Bible has ever felt dry, overwhelming, or like something you “should” do, this conversation will help you reset your approach and remember why the Word truly works. It comforts, corrects, guides, protects, and reveals God’s heart—page after page.

It’s a Welcome to America Thanksgiving special… and things get chaotic fast. 🇺🇸😂

Charlotte tries classic American candy for the very first time — Skittles, Sour Patch Kids, Butterfinger, Hershey’s, Nerd Clusters, and of course… candy corn (aka the moment everything went downhill).

If you’ve ever wondered how an Englishwoman reacts to America’s most iconic (and questionable) holiday treats, this episode will make your entire week. Between Thanksgiving traditions, family stories, Yorkshire pudding, and brutally honest candy rankings, this one is pure entertainment.

Whether you’re team candy corn or team “absolutely not,” celebrate Thanksgiving with us as we taste-test our way through America’s sweetest (and strangest) traditions.
