LIVING in the LIGHT of MANDELA’S SHADOW: UNCORKED with Craig Minchin

What does it take to shape history, not be victimized by it? In this UNCORKED conversation, Tim Windsor and Craig Minchin explore the life and leadership of Nelson Mandela—one of the most iconic figures of the twentieth century. This isn’t a sanitized story of saintly perfection but a raw look at how a man with flaws, convictions, and an unshakable vision changed not just a nation but the way we think about courage, reconciliation, and power. Listeners will be challenged to see Mandela not just as a distant hero, but as a model of resilience and resolve who chose forgiveness when revenge seemed inevitable, and who showed that true leadership is about serving something bigger than yourself. Craig and Tim analyze lessons from Mandela’s prison years, his political rise, and his ability to unite a divided nation—prompting us to consider what we would stand for if everything was at stake. By the end of this conversation, you’ll walk away with more than admiration for Mandela—you’ll carry practical, honest questions about your own life and leadership. How do you lead when the cost is high? What grudges are you holding that prevent you from real freedom? And what kind of legacy are you willing to risk everything to create? This episode isn’t just about Mandela—it’s about you, and whether you’re brave enough to live uncommodified.
