Description

Ever had one of those days where you're like, "I love Jesus... but I cannot talk to one more person"? Same. In fact, that was me yesterday. So if you're like me and you're introverted, in ministry, and completely peopled out, this episode is for you.


 


Today I’m talking about what to do when your social battery is dead, but ministry keeps moving. I’m sharing 3 practical ways to protect your peace, communicate your limits without guilt, and build in time to breathe—without quitting everything and moving to a cabin in the middle of nowhere. 😅


 


If you've ever felt bad for needing space or struggled to balance people time with actual rest, this episode will remind you: you’re not broken. You’re just introverted—and God knew that when He called you.
