    Do you feel pressured to have it all together—and burned out trying? In this episode Denise Stiffler and Mackenzi Blasko welcome Susan Weisman,author of Undoing Superwoman, who shares how healing from dysautonomia exposed her superwoman patterns of control, perfectionism, and people-pleasing.  Susan explains how her view of abundant living shifted from worldly success to aligning with what God has for her, learning to trust Him, and surrendering daily burdens. She describes practical steps that supported her healing journey—cleaning up her diet, inner healing through forgiveness and repentance, learning about boundaries, and developing a real relationship with God.  The conversation highlights  God as refugeHow busyness can be armorThe PRAY prayer model (praise, repent, ask, yield)How triggers can be invitations to deeper healing rather than a lack of faith.

    Episode 82: Experiencing a From Run Down to Renewed Women’s Conference with Tina Martin

    In this powerful episode of From Run Down to Renewed, hosts Mackenzi and Denise sit down with conference guest Tina Martin—wife, mentor, and faithful encourager of teen girls and young women—for an honest conversation about what happens when God meets you in the middle of an exhausted season. Tina shares how she came to the November women’s conference simply hoping to spend time with her mother-in-law, Janet—but arrived carrying emotional fatigue, uncertainty about a shifting mentoring season, and the weight of a recent health scar. In a season that felt stretched and unclear, she found herself praying for renewed direction, deeper soul care, and clarity about what God was calling her into next. During the conference, powerful teachings on releasing old seasons, embracing identity in Christ, and walking in forgiveness deeply impacted her. Breakout sessions on identity and a deeper personal walk with God, as well as the connection between unforgiveness and distance from Him, stirred something fresh in her spirit. Through heartfelt worship, Tina began to embrace what she calls a “resurrection mindset”—choosing to live from renewal instead of depletion. Since the conference, she’s experienced unexpected fruit: a strengthened relationship with her mother-in-law, new mentoring opportunities, and a fresh calling stirring in her husband’s heart to pour into young men. If you’ve been feeling weary, unsure of your next step, or wondering if God still has more for you in this season—this episode is for you. And if you’ve been on the fence about attending our next women’s conference, let Tina’s story encourage you. This isn’t just an event—it’s a God-centered, welcoming space where faith is strengthened, healing begins, and purpose is awakened. Come expectant. Come honest. Come ready to be renewed. ✨ Join the From Run Down to Renewed Women’s Conference March 14th: www.fromrundowntorenewed.com/conference  ✨ Connect with From Run Down to Renewed: www.fromrundowntorenewed.com
