321: You Are Not a Machine

Do you ever feel like you’re caught in an endless cycle of production, performance, and pressure to keep going as if you’re a machine? Here’s the truth: you’re not a machine—you’re a beloved son or daughter of God, designed with rhythms, limits, and an invitation to rest as well as work. In this episode, we unpack what it means to live as God intended—rooted, unhurried, and attuned to the gift of being human.

Highlights from today’s conversation include:

• Embracing the Gift of Limits: Why honoring your God-given boundaries leads to true freedom and flourishing.
• Living Like Trees, Not Machines: How rootedness and abiding in God sustain a fruitful, abundant life.
• Recalibrating for Health: Moving beyond burnout to a sustainable, life-giving rhythm of rest and work.

We’ll also explore how acknowledging seasons, valuing slow growth, and embracing your identity as a beloved child of God can reframe your purpose and renew your energy. Let’s lean into the good news that you were made to flourish, not to constantly perform.

Listen in and take a step toward a life marked by fruitfulness, rest, and joy—a life grounded in God’s love and presence.
