You're Allowed to Rest in the Middle Do you ever sit in the parking lot for one extra second before walking into work, wondering if anyone actually sees how much you're carrying? Or catch yourself feeling guilty for falling asleep before you even open your Bible app? If you're a busy, working Christian mom running on empty, this episode is for you. Today we're talking about why you're not behind, you're not failing — you're simply in the middle of a hard, full season. And the middle is holy ground too. In this episode, I'm sharing: A real, honest picture of what working mom overwhelm actually looks like (you'll probably see yourself in it) Why your worth was never tied to your to-do list — and what Philippians 1:6 actually promises about seasons like this One simple phrase you can say the next time guilt or exhaustion creeps in, to hand the weight back to God A gentle reminder that rest isn't something you have to earn If you've been feeling the weight of working mom guilt, burnout, or the pressure to hold it all together — I hope this episode helps you feel seen, and leaves you with something to hold onto.
