My Mission Is to Restore the Leaders Who Restore Others

I’m Rickey Pearson Jr., founder of Watchman Leadership Restoration — a pastor, Air Force veteran, spiritual mentor, and a man who understands both leadership responsibility and personal restoration.

I know what it feels like to:

My life has included failure, rebuilding, humility, discipline, and redemption. God has walked me through seasons of breaking and restoration — not once, but repeatedly — teaching me how to shepherd both others and myself.

For the past seven years, I’ve served in prison ministry and decades in leadership environments where honesty is rare and pressure is constant. I’ve listened to men who lead faithfully yet feel isolated, exhausted, and afraid to admit they’re struggling.

Watchman Leadership Restoration exists for one reason:

To strengthen Christlike leaders before burnout turns into breakdown.

You don’t need another sermon.
You don’t need another conference.
You need a safe place to be honest — and a guide who understands the weight you carry.

That is the work I am called to do.

Everything You Need to Know

Yes. Every conversation, session, and shared experience is held in strict confidence. This is a safe space where Christlike leaders can speak openly without fear of exposure, judgment, or professional consequence.
No. Watchman Leadership Restoration is not therapy or clinical counseling. It is faith-rooted leadership mentoring and spiritual restoration, grounded in Scripture, wisdom, accountability, and practical guidance for leaders carrying heavy responsibility.
This work is designed for pastors, ministers, and Christlike leaders who are spiritually faithful yet quietly exhausted, discouraged, or overwhelmed—especially those who feel they must remain strong for others while struggling internally.
That’s completely okay. The confidential conversation is designed to listen to your current season and help discern whether a restoration pathway is the right fit. There is no pressure to commit.
No. Many leaders come before full burnout sets in. Restoration is not only for crisis—it is for prevention, clarity, and strengthening the soul before exhaustion turns into breakdown.
