You’re doing everything right… so why does your soul still feel exhausted?

If you’re a high-achieving wife and mother who loves God but secretly feels disconnected, overwhelmed, and stretched thin trying to keep up, this conversation will meet you right where you are.

In this powerful episode of She Leads Boldly, I sit down with Jessica DeYoung, founder of Made Whole Community, to talk about what it really looks like to walk with God — not perfectly, but faithfully — in the middle of real life.

Because let’s be honest…
You don’t need more inspiration.
You need transformation.

Together, we unpack:

  •  The silent burnout that comes from “performing” in your faith, marriage, and career 
  •  Why obedience to God feels hard when you’re exhausted, and how to return to Him anyway 
  •  What “wholeness” actually looks like for the woman carrying it all 
  •  How to move from knowing about God… to truly walking with Him daily 
  •  The healing available when you stop striving and start surrendering 

Jessica shares with raw honesty how God meets us in the wilderness seasons — the ones where you feel lost, dry, or disconnected — and how those very places become the foundation for deeper intimacy, clarity, and peace.

This episode isn’t about adding more to your plate.
It’s about releasing what was never yours to carry.

If you’ve been craving a slower, more grounded way to lead your life — one that aligns your faith, family, and calling without burnout — this conversation will open your eyes to what’s possible.

And if you’re ready to stop surviving and start leading from a place of peace, purpose, and spiritual alignment… this is exactly the kind of work I walk women through every day.
