How To Build A Life That Doesn't Exhaust You
Manage episode 496115438 series 2828508
Not all burnout is from doing too much. Sometimes it’s from doing the wrong thing for too long—even if it looked holy. Even if you called it obedience.
In this episode of Prescription for Purpose, we expose one of the most overlooked causes of Christian burnout: spiritual misalignment. You’ll learn why high-functioning women of faith often mistake misaligned obedience for purpose—and how that confusion leads to exhaustion, resentment, and quiet disconnection from God.
We explore:
- How spiritual fatigue shows up in your body, emotions, and calendar
- Why being consistent doesn’t always mean you’re being called
- What it really means when you’ve lost motivation—but haven’t lost your faith
- How to recognize when your purpose has been hijacked by pressure
- The difference between God’s assignment and your assumption
This isn’t a time management fix or a self-care tip. It’s a spiritual reset for women who love God but are tired of carrying things He never told them to pick up.
If you’ve ever said, “I’m being obedient, so why do I feel like this?” — this episode is your answer.
