About this listen

Hi Friend,

What happens when the job you took to provide for your family becomes the very thing that’s tearing it apart? In this heartfelt episode, Holly shares a powerful story of burnout, misplaced priorities, and the painful realization that success means nothing if it costs you the people you love most.

You’ll learn how to realign your life with God’s design — not the world’s definition of success — and discover the peace that comes when your priorities fall back into order: God first, yourself second, family third.

If you’ve ever walked through the door at night feeling empty, anxious, or short-tempered — this episode will help you break the cycle before it breaks your home.

🕊️ In This Episode, You’ll Discover:
  1. The Hidden Cost of Success — How constant striving robs your joy and connection.

  2. God’s View on Priorities — Why seeking Him first (Matthew 6:33) brings order to everything else.

  3. Three Steps to Break the Burnout Cycle:

    • Redefine Success: Shift your identity from performance to purpose.

    • Set New Family Boundaries: Protect sacred time and rebuild connection at home.

    • Simplify Your Schedule: Learn how “doing less” actually leads to doing what matters most.

💬 Favorite Quotes

“You can rebuild your home and still have a career—but one must serve the other.” “God didn’t call you to constant striving. He called you to stewardship and trust.” “Your family doesn’t need a perfect provider—they need a peaceful, present one.”

📖 Scripture of the Episode

Matthew 6:33 (ESV): “But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.”

✨ Takeaway Challenge

Before walking through the door tonight, pause and pray:

“God, help me leave work at work and bring peace into my home.”

Write down three things that matter most to God in this season — and let those guide your schedule this week.
