Are you exhausted from juggling your ever-growing list of commitments and to-dos? Do you desire to show up abundantly in all the areas of your life, but are spread too thin, leaving you feeling weary and guilty that you didn’t do enough? If this is you, Friend, then I am so excited to welcome you! I’m Lindsay, a Jesus-loving, anxious-prone wife and Mom to 3. As a working Mom myself, I know firsthand how stressful it can be to have the desire to financially help your family, but also show up as a Mom, fully engaged and present for the people who are most important to you. I was drowning in all the things, overcome with anxiety and blindly believing the enemy’s lies that I wasn’t doing enough. Which only left me spiraling even deeper into a more toxic cycle that felt impossible to escape. It wasn’t until I prioritized my relationship with the Lord through rooting myself in scripture and prayer that I began to see the light. When I gave myself space to rest in God’s presence and became conscious…","last_synced_at":"2026-09-15T22:17:20.227063+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/faith-led-working-moms-biblical-encouragement-and-mindset-time-management-work-life-balance-boundaries-priorities-6389093"},"episode":{"title":"Ep 222 // Why Do I Feel Guilty Every Time I Rest?

As a working Christian mom, it can feel almost impossible to slow down without thinking about everything you still need to do. The laundry isn't finished, the emails aren't answered, the house needs attention, and there's always something else on your to-do list. But what if rest isn't something you have to earn? In this episode of the Faith Led Working Moms Podcast, we're talking about the guilt many Christian women feel around rest, productivity, and slowing down. We'll look at what the Bible really says about Sabbath and biblical rest and why taking time to stop isn't laziness or a lack of ambition—it can actually be an act of trust in God. We'll talk about: Why rest can make you feel guilty How our culture has connected our worth with productivity What Sabbath teaches us about trusting God The difference between biblical rest and simply \"doing nothing\" Why your identity isn't determined by how much you accomplish How rest can become an act of faith Simple ways to create healthier rhythms of work and rest You don't have to finish everything before you're allowed to rest. You don't have to prove your worth through productivity. And you don't have to carry everything yourself. God created you with limits, and He didn't design you to live in a constant state of doing. Rest isn't laziness. Rest is trust. If you're an overwhelmed Christian working mom who wants to live with greater biblical balance, peace, and intention, this episode is for you. A Question to Consider When you feel guilty for resting, what are you believing about yourself, your responsibilities, or what God expects from you? Continue Your Journey If you're ready to stop living from one endless to-do list and begin creating rhythms that honor your faith, family, wor…","meta_description":"Do you feel guilty every time you rest?
