253 | Burnout Changes Us: The Science You Need to Know - Preventing Burnout, Part 2

Many women often tell me, “I don’t feel like myself anymore.” And, you may notice you’re more irritable, more tired, less patient, or strangely unable to slow down - even when you desperately want to.

Prayer feels harder.

Rest feels elusive.

And you might quietly wonder why faith alone doesn’t seem to be fixing this.

What science helps us see is this: burnout is not just emotional or spiritual - it is physiological. Chronic stress literally reshapes how your brain and nervous system function.

When your system has been in survival mode for too long, stillness can feel unsafe, and rest can feel inaccessible.

In this episode, we will cover:
☀️ What chronic stress does to the brain and the nervous system.
☀️ The impact of chronic stress on our bodies, including additional risks.
☀️ The science behind why it's hard to rest, even though you are tired.
☀️ How our understanding of this is essential for healing.
☀️ Powerful scripture that will remind you to let go of the stress and put your trust in God.

When you realize what your system has been enduring, self-blame gives way to wisdom, and restoration becomes possible again.
