Description:

Have you ever finally sat down for five quiet minutes, only to feel guilty for not doing something “productive”? As a Christian working mom, it can feel like the weight of your home, work, and family all rests on your shoulders. Slowing down? That feels risky—or even wrong.

But what if your fear of rest isn’t laziness—it’s a misunderstanding of God’s heart?

In this episode, we’re unpacking the spiritual reasons rest feels uncomfortable and why slowing down might actually be an act of trust and obedience. You’ll learn why biblical rest is more than just self-care—it’s soul-care. We’ll explore:

• Why Christian moms feel guilty for resting

• The hidden beliefs that keep us stuck in over-functioning

• What Scripture really says about rest and identity

• How to trust God in the stillness

• Simple, grace-filled ways to start practicing true rest this week

God never tied your worth to your work—and He invites you to live like that’s true.

If you’re longing for a way to be present, grounded, and free from the constant pressure to do more, this conversation is for you.

Are you a busy Christian mom who feels like you’re always doing—but rarely being? You’re getting through the day, checking off the to-do list, keeping your family afloat—but your heart feels distant, your mind is constantly racing, and your spirit is running on empty?

In this episode, we’re talking about the real struggle of being physically present but emotionally and spiritually disconnected. I’ll walk you through how biblical truth, heart-level awareness, and gentle rhythms of grace can help you shift from surviving your days to truly living in them.

As a certified biblical counselor and fellow working mom, I want to encourage you: You don’t need to be perfect to be present. You don’t have to do more to be faithful. God is inviting you to walk with Him right now—in this moment—not someday when life slows down.

• Why presence isn’t just about time—it’s about heart alignment

• How false beliefs (like “busyness = value”) keep you stuck in exhaustion

• Biblical counseling principles that help uncover what’s really driving your overwhelm

• What it looks like to live from a place of peace, not pressure

• A gentle invitation into small mindset shifts and rhythms that anchor you in God’s presence
