How many of us are carrying around toxic narratives in our hearts without even realizing how they got planted there? We look at our exhausting schedules and think, "If I don't do it all, I'm failing." We treat rest like a reward we have to earn after a grueling week of hustle, rather than a sacred gift from our Creator. Sisters, the cultural glorification of busyness is quietly robbing you of your spiritual growth, your peace, and your joy.
In this heartfelt conversation, host Rachel Earp chats with her Philly-friend Erica Gwynn, author of That's Just Not True. Erica opens up about her personal journey from chronic overachiever to a woman walking in true biblical freedom. Together, Rachel and Erica pull back the curtain on how childhood, society, and twisted half-truths plant weeds in our hearts. Using the powerful filter of Philippians 4:8, this episode will teach you how to audit your thoughts, lean on trusted community, and do the compassionate soul-work of uprooting deep-seated lies so you can replace them with God's unchanging Word.
Grab a cup of coffee and pull up a chair to our front porch—it’s time to stop hustling for your worth and start resting in your identity.
