• S4 EP26: Letting Go of Overload: Finding Peace in a Weary Season

  Feeling overwhelmed, scattered, or stretched too thin? You’re not alone. In this heartfelt episode, Clarissa Mangaran, Mary Martinez, and Tayler Burcham invite you into their journey of reassessing priorities, battling burnout, and learning to let go of overload.At the start of a new quarter, Clarissa shares how she pauses to evaluate the state of her soul, home, and schedule—and how this time, the signs pointed to one thing: overwhelm. From her home's physical clutter to her emotional toll on her body and relationships, Clarissa walks listeners through the complex but holy process of decluttering, practically and spiritually. This episode offers encouragement, especially for military spouses navigating ever-shifting demands, and it delivers wisdom for any woman feeling weary under the weight of too much. With Scripture, soul-searching questions, and practical tools like block scheduling, family meetings, and margin-setting, Clarissa gently reminds us that peace isn’t found in doing more but in doing less on purpose.If you’re tired, overcommitted, or wondering where your time with God went, this episode is for you. Step into the permission to pause, purge, and prioritize what matters most.Blog Post For More: Letting Go of Overload-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------You can now watch our Podcasts on YouTube: WS YouTube PageWS INSTAGRAMWS FACEBOOKContact Us
