How You Can Stay Close to God in Busy Seasons (Without Adding More to Your Plate)

Do you ever feel like your life is so full that your faith is getting pushed to the side? As a busy working mom, it’s easy to believe that staying close to God requires more time, more quiet, and more consistency than you actually have.

In today’s episode, I’m encouraging you with this truth: you can stay close to God in busy seasons — even when your schedule feels overwhelming and your days are packed. Spiritual growth doesn’t have to depend on perfect routines or long devotional time. Instead, faith can take root through simple, sustainable rhythms that fit into your real life.

You’ll learn how to connect with God throughout your day through small, meaningful moments—without adding more to your plate or feeling like you’re falling behind spiritually.

If you’ve been craving peace, encouragement, and a more grace-filled approach to growing in faith as a working mom, this episode is for you.

In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

Why faith doesn’t require an “ideal schedule” to grow

How to release all-or-nothing thinking about spiritual growth

Simple daily rhythms that help you stay close to God in busy seasons

How to invite God into transitions throughout your day

Why small, faithful moments matter more than spiritual perfection

Encouragement for overwhelmed working moms who want to grow in faith

Simple Faith Rhythms Mentioned:

A whispered prayer during carpool or before walking into work

Returning to the same Bible verse when stress rises

A quick surrender moment: “Lord, I need Your wisdom right now”

Inviting God into transitions (work → home, errands → family time)

Letting go of comparison and embracing your season

Encouragement for the Working Mom Who Feels Overwhelmed:
God is not waiting for you to get it all together before He meets with you. He is present with you in the ordinary moments, the rushed moments, and the in-between spaces. You don’t need more time to grow in faith—you just need small moments of turning your heart toward Him.

When You’re Carrying Too Much and Still Have to Show Up: 3 Ways to Navigate a Heavy Season
There are seasons in motherhood that aren’t just hard — they’re heavy.

If you’re carrying something at home that’s consuming your heart, your emotional energy, and your prayers, but you’re still expected to show up at work, keep things moving, and act like everything is fine, this episode is for you.

In this episode, I speak directly to working Christian moms who are navigating heavy family seasons while continuing to show up in their professional and everyday responsibilities. You’ll hear encouragement, biblical truth, and three gentle ways to support yourself when life feels overwhelming and the weight you’re carrying feels invisible.

This is not an episode about trying harder or pushing through. It’s about recognizing when you’re carrying too much and learning how to receive support — spiritually, emotionally, and practically — in a season that requires more from you than you expected.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

The difference between a hard day or week and a truly heavy season

Why survival mode in a heavy season is not failure — it’s faithfulness

A personal story about redefining “doing your best” when capacity changes

Three practical ways to navigate a heavy season, including:

Permission to lower the bar without guilt

When and how to communicate your needs at work

Why allowing others to help is part of God’s design, not a weakness

Encouragement for staying connected to God when your spiritual rhythms feel disrupted

Hope and reassurance that God sees you and is present in the middle of your heaviness

A word of encouragement
If you’re showing up tired, stretched, and emotionally spent, you are not falling behind or failing God. You are faithfully walking through a season that requires grace, support, and gentleness — not more effort.

God is near to you in this season. He hears the quiet prayers, sees the unseen weight, and is carrying you even when you feel worn down.

 

If you’re realizing that what you need right now isn’t more effort, but better support, Lindsay’s Faithfully Balanced course was created for seasons exactly like this. It’s designed to help working Christian moms clarify priorities, release unrealistic expectations, and create rhythms that support both faith and family — especially when life feels heavy.

When Hustle Culture Steals Your Peace and Leaves You Exhausted—and What You Actually Need Instead

If you’re a working Christian mom who ended the holidays feeling more exhausted than refreshed, you’re not alone. As routines return and responsibilities pile back on, many moms find themselves carrying guilt for resting at all—wondering why peace feels so far away.

In this episode, we talk honestly about how hustle culture quietly steals our peace and convinces us that our worth is tied to productivity. We unpack why exhaustion isn’t a sign you need to push harder, but often a signal that your soul is longing for rest and trust in God.

Using Exodus 14:14—“The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still”—we explore how biblical stillness is not passivity, laziness, or giving up. It’s surrender. It’s choosing to stop striving, stop proving, and allow God to fight battles we were never meant to carry.

You’ll hear encouragement for the working mom who feels behind, overwhelmed, and unsure if she’s doing enough—and a reminder that the peace of Jesus isn’t something you earn through perfect performance. It’s a gift freely offered, even in seasons of exhaustion, uncertainty, and unmet expectations.

This episode will help you:

Identify how hustle culture fuels exhaustion and mom guilt

Release the belief that your value is tied to productivity

Understand what biblical rest and stillness really mean

Shift from striving to trusting God with your time, work, and family

Embrace peace that doesn’t depend on having it all together

If you’re longing for more peace and less pressure—especially as you balance faith, family, and work—this conversation will gently point you back to the rest Jesus offers.

 

Questions to consider as you work through your week:

Where am I hustling when God is inviting me to rest?

Where am I carrying guilt that He's already forgiven?

Where can I pause today and remember I am loved, not for what I do, but for who I am in Him?
