Fren, if you’ve been feeling stretched thin, exhausted, or just spiritually off—this episode is for you.
Lately, my life has looked a whole lot like: 🌙 3am mornings 💼 10-hour workdays 👩🏾👧👦 Mommy duties on max 🎉 Late nights planning a surprise party
And in the middle of all that busyness, God brought me back to a familiar story: Mary and Martha. Whew… I realized I’d been doing a whole lot of Martha-ing and very little Mary-ing.
In this episode, I share how God used my burnout to remind me of His gift of Sabbath—a full day of no striving, no emails, no “catching up.” Just worship, joy, family, food, fellowship, and intentional rest. Sabbath isn’t just a suggestion—it’s a trust fall with the Lord.
I’ll also give you a little update on what’s coming with Sow in Love—the new website, courses, and community we’re building together.✨
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
How I realized I was slipping back into “Egypt”—where productivity equals value
The difference between being a Martha and being a Mary (and why we need both in the right season)
Why Sabbath is more than just a day off
Simple ways to practice intentional rest and create a rhythm of stillness
What God is teaching me about trust, balance, and joy in this season
Scripture to Reflect On:
Luke 10:38–42 — Mary at the feet of Jesus
Exodus 20:8–10 — Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy
Matthew 11:28 — Come to me, all who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest
