7 Steps to Determining Your Passion




Connect with 4Sight Coach Carey O'Connor
Most of Carey’s early leadership experiments were developed growing up as the middle of 10 children.  She began her career 20 years ago, launching and directing leadership and discipleship programs for Native American youth and young adults on the Navajo Nation.

After serving in multiple staff roles, Carey currently serves as co-lead pastor of Christian Life Fellowship - focusing on vision, strategy, and leadership development. She navigated a 3-year transition of leadership from a long tenured pastor while overseeing a culture shift. She is passionate about helping other churches lead through the rarity of healthy transitions. Carey works with organizations facilitating leadership workshops and one-on-one coaching with enneagram work, strategic planning and leadership talks. She currently serves on advisory teams for discipleship strategies in cross cultural ministries and is passionate about seeing the Kingdom of God advance through disciple making movements throughout the world. 

Carey and her husband, Jeff, live and work together in Port Edwards, Wisconsin, raising their 5 kids while restoring their 115 year-old Victorian farmhouse fixer upper. The month she turned 40, she ordered a plant from QVC and went antiquing. This is very concerning to her.
