Rest, Faith, and Self-Care for Busy Christian Women
Welcome to the very first episode of Rooted + Rested — a podcast created for the busy, faith-filled woman who’s longing for peace and deeper connection with the Lord in the middle of life’s demands.
In this episode, I’m inviting you into the heart behind this podcast and sharing why rest isn't something we earn… it’s something God invites us into.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
- My personal story of burnout and how growing lavender became part of my healing
- The vision behind Rooted + Rested
- What to expect in future episodes (faith-filled encouragement, gentle self-care tips, and stories from my lavender field)
- A simple self-care invitation you can try today
- A sneak peek of next week’s “Lesson in the Lavender” 🌱
Whether you're listening in your kitchen, your car, your garden, or your bathtub — this space was made for you. You’re not lazy for needing rest. You’re wise to return to the Source of peace.
