Why is cutting back on commitments never quite enough to fix the burnout we feel—physically and spiritually? In this life-giving episode of She Speaks Life, author and podcast host Tara Sun joins us to share the heart behind her new book, Overbooked and Overwhelmed: How to Keep up with God When You’re Just Trying to Keep Up With Life.
Tara offers a powerful invitation to stop doing the most and start devoting our lives to the Most High. Through her own experience with extreme overwhelm and burnout, she learned that—we need daily rhythms that build a life with margin, meaning, and consistent connection with God.
We discuss:
Why Cutting Back Isn’t Enough and how there's a better way to beat burnout and receive true rest
Less Distracted, More Devoted living—how to recognize distractions and stay present with what God is doing
From Overbooked to Unburdened, and what it looks like to steward our season without striving
Letting Go to Let God In—how to clear the clutter from our schedules and our souls to make room for deeper intimacy with Him
This episode is a timely invitation to experience revival when you feel too weary to chase it, and a reminder that rest isn’t a retreat—it’s a return to the One who gives it freely.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
