Un-Hurry Your Heart with Jennifer Dukes Lee


Listen Later

Friends, I’m thrilled to welcome back my dear friend Jennifer Dukes Lee to the show today! Jennifer is a calm, encouraging voice in our fast-paced world that is obsessed with hustle and haste. And I hope our conversation is a safe place for you to land when you’re reaching for ways to live a quiet, easy, and successful life. 

In our conversation, we talk about Jennifer’s new book “Growing Slow” and she shares practical tips on how we can stop treating life as an emergency and start living life the way it was meant to be lived - slowly. She also reminds us that true peace comes from embracing the life that God crafted for each and every one of us. 

Listen in as Jennifer and I  talk about: 

  1. The trap of comparing ourselves to the accomplishments of others
  • The connection God created between our lives and the Earth’s seasons
  • How to view time as a both a friend and tool that God uses in our daily lives
  • Her craziest farm story about a rogue pig  
  • Favorite quotes:

    1. When I put into place some pauses in my life, really changed things and adopted what I call a slow growth mindset, that has been transformational for me.



    2. Slow progress is still progress. 


    3. There's always something sitting out there as if it’s a milestone. I don't know who created these, but there really are no set milestones. I think when we strip all of that away. And  if we go our own way and grow our own way. We will experience a lot of freedom. That chips away at the hurry that's hanging around our hearts.


    4. In our hurry, we're really not setting down the roots that we need to hold us firm when the storms inevitably come.


    5. Without sustainable living as human beings we're gonna ruin the fields that are our lives and our hearts in these places where God's planting seeds in us.

    In this episode I answer these questions:

    1. What’s your process for knowing what to say yes and what to say no to? (35:20)
