In this episode, I’m opening up about something so many of us face: burnout.
Not just the kind that comes from overworking, but the kind that creeps in when we’re chasing everyone else’s definition of success—even in our own businesses.

I share how God gently led me away from constant striving and into a slower, Spirit-led rhythm. One where rest isn’t weakness, and boundaries are a form of obedience—not guilt.

If you’re overwhelmed by your to-do list or wondering if it’s okay to step back and breathe—this is your reminder:
You don’t have to hustle your way into God’s plan.
You just have to follow His pace.

In this very first episode of The Final Bell, I’m sharing the story that started it all—how I went from teaching over 650 students each week to launching a business from home as a faith-led entrepreneur and mom.

After walking through NICU stays, pandemic shutdowns, and the quiet ache of missing too many moments with my daughter, I knew something had to change. This is the honest story of obedience, fear, hope, and hearing the Lord say, “It’s time.”

If you’re navigating the tension of career and calling—or wondering if God is inviting you into something new—this episode is for you.

Listen in and be reminded: You’re not lost… you’re being led.
