When good things become too much, it’s often not because we’re doing the wrong things — but because we’re doing too many of the right ones.

In this re-aired episode of the Organized On Purpose Podcast, we’re talking about the quiet burnout that happens when we say yes out of guilt, obligation, or fear of disappointing others, rather than out of discernment.

Many women who love to serve find themselves with schedules filled with meaningful commitments — meetings, projects, ministries, and responsibilities that once felt like blessings. Over time, those good things can begin to drain us and crowd out the rest, margin, and clarity we need to thrive in this season.

In this episode, I gently walk you through three questions for faithful discernment to help you pause before your next yes and ask:

Is this life-giving or depleting?

Am I responding out of guilt or obedience?

Does this align with what God is asking of me right now?

We talk about:

The hidden cost of always saying yes

Why guilt is not a healthy guide

The difference between serving faithfully and overgiving

How to say no without shame

Creating rhythms that support what God is calling you to in this season

This episode is for women who want to live faithfully, serve generously, and still have space to breathe — without burning out.
