Feeling overwhelmed by everyday stress? You’re not alone! Most of us live with more stress and less peace and calm than we’d like. And here’s the crazy part: much of the stress we feel is self-inflicted!

But there is a better way. In this episode, we chat about shifting from stress to peace by focusing on what we can control rather than worrying about what we can’t control—like our schedules, stuff, and mindset. Inspired by Jesus' rhythm of rest and reflection, I’ll show you how making space (literally and emotionally!) can lead to a calmer, more joyful life.

We dive into real-life stressors like people-pleasing, procrastination, and even social media overload, and I offer simple, practical steps to lighten your load. It’s all about progress, not perfection—and a whole lot of grace.

Let’s do this together!

Xo,

Donna
