If you’ve ever felt like you’re swimming upstream—trying to force your quiet time, creativity, or productivity into a box that just doesn’t fit—you’re not alone.

In this episode, we’re exploring how to align our schedules with our God-given design instead of pushing against the current of how we naturally work best.

You’ll hear:

• Why the classic “quiet time first thing in the morning” doesn’t work for everyone

• How God might actually be inviting you to reimagine your rhythms—not abandon your practices

• What neuroscience says about circadian rhythms, mental energy, and the brain’s “Goldilocks zones” for different types of work

• A freeing reminder that Jesus didn’t stick to a rigid schedule – and you don’t have to either 

Plus, a few practical, grace-filled questions to help you sketch out your own ideal rhythm—and permission to experiment, adapt, and walk in step with the pace of grace.

 

💡Today’s Big Idea: Align your time with your God-given design.

⚡️Today’s Small Step: Sketch out an ideal week that feels like a delight—then give it a try!
