Misty shares her journey from direct sales into coaching, how God faithfully led her step by step, and why putting Him at the center of our lives and businesses changes everything. Together, they unpack why so many women feel burned out from wearing too many hats, how guilt sneaks in when our priorities are misaligned, and a simple but life changing visual tool that helps women realign their time, energy, and focus.

God should be the CEO of your life and business , guiding decisions both big and small. Burnout often comes from wearing too many “good” hats at the same time — not from doing one thing poorly. The Target Exercise helps visually prioritize what matters most: God, personal wellbeing, family, and then everything else. Your family is your first ministry , and your relationship with God deserves protected, intentional time. Social media often consumes time without reflecting what we actually value. Intentional boundaries create peace and reduce guilt. Purpose brings peace; pressure brings burnout. Faith and business were never meant to be separate — alignment brings flow and fruit. ⏱ Chapters 00:00 – Welcome & Meet Misty Lakes 02:30 – From Direct Sales to Coaching: Trusting God Ste… ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/anchored-with-purpose-faith-family-purpose-dreaming-planning-overcoming-anxiety-overcoming-overwhelm-7090057/episodes/72-purpose-over-pressure-a-faith-filled-path-out-of-burnout-ft-misty-lakes/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/anchored-with-purpose-faith-family-purpose-dreaming-planning-overcoming-anxiety-overcoming-overwhelm-7090057/72-purpose-over-pressure-a-faith-filled-path-out-of-burnout-ft-misty-lakes.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
