19 Burnout vs Order: Biblical Wisdom for the Woman Who Does It All Herself

Are you exhausted from carrying everything ministry, family, work, and everyone else’s expectations on your own?

This episode is for the woman who loves God deeply, serves faithfully, and yet finds herself standing on the edge of burnout.

In Episode 19, we dive into the powerful wisdom found in Exodus 18:13–18, where Moses’ father-in-law, Jethro, lovingly confronts him with a hard truth:

“The work is too heavy for you; you cannot handle it alone.”

Sis, this is not a rebuke—it’s an invitation to order, wisdom, and rest.

In this episode, we talk about:

• The difference between burnout and Biblical order

• Why doing everything yourself is not a badge of honor

• How overcommitting in ministry can slowly drain your joy, health, and relationships

• Why saying no in certain seasons is an act of wisdom, not disobedience

• The truth about balance vs. order in your life and calling

• How to honor God by honoring your body, energy, and season

I also share a very personal story from my own life navigating full-time work, motherhood, marriage, ministry commitments, building the brand God placed on my heart, and stewarding my health all while learning when to advocate for myself and say no without guilt.

This episode will help you recognize that sometimes it’s not a heart issue…
👉🏽 it’s a body issue.
And ignoring that doesn’t make you spiritual, it makes you depleted.

We also unpack:

• Why rhythms of rest and routines are essential in ministry

• How misplaced priorities can quietly affect your relationship with God, your spouse, and your children

• Practical ways to care for your health even in a busy season

• Why this season of overwhelm is not permanent

• How the enemy uses busyness to steal peace, clarity, and joy

We close with encouragement from Matthew 11:28–30, reminding you that Jesus never intended for His work to crush you—His yoke is easy, and His burden is light.

Key Takeaway:

This is not about doing less for God it’s about doing what He’s called you to do in the right order, with the right support, and with a healthy mind, body, and spirit.

You are called.
You are faithful.
And you were never meant to do this alone. 💛

If this episode brought up stress, exhaustion, or the realization that things feel out of order, I’d love to support you in a mind, body, and spirit recalibration without pressure or overwhelm.
