ABOUT THIS EPISODE

You're carrying an invisible weight, and you were never meant to carry it alone. In this conversation, I share my story of having two children sick at the same time, one hospitalized in a pain crisis and the other needing major nerve surgery at a different hospital, and how grace and the people around me carried me when my own strength was gone. WHAT YOU'LL TAKE AWAY - Why being "the strong one" can leave you lonely and exhausted - Four faith-based steps to set the weight down: 1. Name the weight: say the true thing out loud 2. Sort it and set it down: what's mine, what's theirs, what's God's 3. Let someone hold up your arms: ask one person for one specific thing 4. Receive strength for today: small daily habits and daily grace - A 2-minute guided reset (breath and prayer) so you can exhale right now SCRIPTURES WE TALK ABOUT Proverbs 31:25, 1 Peter 5:7, Psalm 55:22, Exodus 17:12, Galatians 6:2, Lamentations 3:22-23, 2 Corinthians 12:9, Isaiah 40:31, Matthew 11:28 TRY THIS TODAY Ask for help from trusted friend.
