Summary

August has just begun, but we’re gearing up for the fall here! Jess starts this episode out by sharing her personal fall bucket list. Everything from cozy seasonal decor to staying on top of her seminary reading. It’s a fun and thoughtful look at how she’s preparing her heart and rhythms for the season ahead.

Then she’s joined by speaker and author Tara Sun to talk about her brand-new book, Overbooked and Overwhelmed, which will be released tomorrow! Jess and Tara talk about the moment Tara realized she needed to make a change, how she’s learning to prioritize rest in a full life, and the practical shifts she’s making to stay present with God and her people.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed with the seasons quickly changing, rhythms shifting, or just need some encouragement, this episode is for you.

Let’s go.

0:00.0	Welcome to the Jess Connolly podcast, where we talk about living fully awake, spiritually, mentally,
0:08.8	physically, and emotionally. Here, we don't strive for perfection. We pursue wholeness. And we believe that
0:17.0	women who are awake to the goodness of God cannot help but bring light to the world around
0:22.8	them. This summer, we're mixing things up with summer with friends, a special season full of
0:29.7	life-giving conversations and encouragement. Each episode is starting with a short chat or coaching
0:35.7	session, just you and me,
0:41.0	and then we'll head into an honest, hope-filled interview with one of my friends.

1:19.8	and I don't want you to be mad at me, okay? Because I know it's early August, but I would like
1:24.7	to talk about your fall bucket list. Do you have a fall bucket list? Are you
