How Creative Women Find Peace with Morgan Harper Nichols | Episode 120


Listen Later

In this episode, Jess starts by sitting down with the incredible Morgan Harper Nichols. (Seriously - she's so incredible that this is her third time on the podcast!) These two creative women talk about Morgan's current season and what it looked like to write her newest book (releasing Feb. 15), Peace is a Practice

Just like we have to inhale breath to breathe out, we must be built up to encourage and lead others. This episode talks about how women can do that, since it’s not something someone else will do for us.

If you ever feel like:

  • you can't keep up
  • you crave space
  • you need some peace
  • you're called to be creative
  • you don't have enough energy
  • you need to set different boundaries to find peace
  • ...then this episode is for you.

    After Jess and Morgan's conversation wraps up, Jess shares a quick coaching session about boundaries to help you find peace.

    What if our frantic search for self-care is because we give up ground we weren't meant to? What if we didn’t have to vacillate between leading and outpouring, and then sheltering and putting ourselves back together? What if we guarded our hearts appropriately all the time, we didn’t give away too much of our energy, and we kept the routines and rhythms that protect our soul as sacred?

    Here are some things to help with boundaries that lead to more peace:

    • Get rest consistently.
    • Know your rule of life.
    • Identify boundaries and keep them.
    • Buy Rhythms of Worship + Work
    • Did you hear our ad about Go Teams?
