#JOYGem For The Week:​
“Almost everything will work again if you unplug it for a few minutes… including you.” — Anne Lamott

Hey hey Reader, and Happy FriYAYYYYYY!

​
​What's on my mind this week: Rest isn’t laziness. It’s leadership.

Most women I speak with, coach, and meet are running on fumes — managing a household, building a career, holding it all together —and wondering why they feel burned out.

But here’s the thing:

Sometimes, doing less is how God prepares you for more.

This week’s episode of the JOYrney To Purpose® Podcast is for the woman in transition — whether that’s in motherhood, marriage, business, or faith.

The JOYrney To Purpose® Podcast​
​🎙️🎧 New Episode: Rediscovering Yourself​
Guest: Yvette Henry (wife + homeschooling mom of 4 + Podcast Host)

In this conversation, we talk about:

• Letting go of hustle culture
• Resting + remaining in God
• Obedience in unseen places

It’s not just about stopping. It’s about surrendering.

And if your soul has been craving confirmation to slow down... this might just be it!

Support this season of the podcast is sharing it with a friend who needs a JOY reset.

​
Whether you're in a faith group, have a text thread of mama friends, or know someone in a season of reset — you never know who needs the reminder that they're allowed to pause.

We’re on the JOYrney™ together… ONE feel-good thing at a time!

P.S. If “rest” makes you itchy… maybe that’s the point. 😉
(Also: I’m building a new space for women growing through the Word. Want in? Just reply “I’m in.”)
