Are you constantly running on empty, trying to juggle business, family, and everything in between? I’ve been there too. Two years ago, I thought I was managing it all—until my body forced me to stop.
In this episode, I’m opening up about the wake-up call that landed me in the ER, how hustle culture almost broke me, and why I’m committed to doing things differently. If you’ve ever felt like rest is something you earn instead of something you need, this episode is for you.
In this episode, we’ll discuss:
- The terrifying moment that made me rethink everything
- How hustle culture tricks us into thinking more is always better
- Why Jesus modeled rest—and why we need to follow His example
- Practical ways to break free from the busy badge and reclaim your peace
- How to build a business that honors God’s design for rest
- A special invitation to TPG Live 2025—a faith-based event for mompreneurs ready to trade hustle for kingdom impact
If you’re tired of the never-ending cycle of doing more, let’s press pause together and reimagine what success truly looks like.
