Summary
I am taking a guess that 100% of us are exhausted. And this is beyond the physically tired feeling. You all will love the encouragement and wisdom on today’s episode by Jess Connolly. I have always loved her teaching and preaching - because she balances compassion and truth so well. She doesn’t leave us sitting in the challenges - she provides biblical, practical and realistic ways we can move forward in this issue.
This idea of burnout and an unsustainable pace is not new information. We know we are in it but are not sure why or how to stop it as parents? So what do we do? Tune in to this week’s podcast chat with Jess - you won’t feel shame - you will feel equipped and encouraged to do the hard work of rest. We all know our souls are crying for it.
I was so absolutely amused at the start of our conversation when I asked her about her cold plunge obsession. Is anyone else into the idea of purposely jumping into ice cold water? She actually gives a pretty compelling case to try it.
- Jess’ story of emotional, physical and spiritual breakdown
- How to tend to your soul and stop feeling so defeated
- How to break the cycle of surviving vs thriving
- How can we respond to God’s invitation to rest

| 0:26.2 | and messy journey of parenting. |
| 0:31.5 | It is so important that our kids understand their identity in Christ because the world around us tells our kids a lot of things about who they are. |
