    Why High-Capacity People Burn Out — The Voice You Should Stop Obeying

    Most high-capacity people aren’t exhausted because they’re doing too much. They’re exhausted because they’ve been obeying expectations God never assigned. In today’s episode, Allyson reveals the hidden reason your energy, clarity, and joy have been draining—even when life “looks fine.” This isn’t about burnout. It’s about misdirected obedience, silent rules, and the pressure-driven identity you were never meant to sustain. You’ll learn how to recognize the voice of pressure, the voice of fear, and the voice of God—and why your exhaustion is actually a holy invitation back to your true design. This episode will feel like coming home. ✨ Free Resource: theobedientrebel.com/way ✨ Learn about The Obedient Rebel Leadership Intensive inside the episode. __ Key Takeaways: 00:00 — The exhaustion that sleep can’t fix 00:33 — You’re not weak—you’re obeying the wrong voice 01:14 — When pressure and fear masquerade as responsibility 02:19 — Exhaustion as over-obedience, not overwork 02:49 — The silent expectations leaders inherit 04:43 — Loud vs. quiet voices: how God actually speaks 06:51 — What changes when you obey God instead of pressure 07:20 — Why God’s assignments energize, not drain 10:26 — You can’t pray for peace while obeying pressure 16:00 — Final truth: exhaustion is a signal, not a failure __ Additional Resources: Learn more about Allyson’s work: Website: https://allysonchavez.com/ __ Reach out to me on social media: 🔹 Instagram:   / allysonchavez_   🔹 Facebook:   / allyson.a.chavez   🔹 LinkedIn:   / allysonchavez15     🎧 Follow the podcast on your favorite app, so you never miss an episode: https://link.chtbl.com/tpapodcast   ✨ I’d be so grateful and honored if you took the time to leave a rating and review: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast…   #TheObedientRebel #LeadershipWithGod #FaithBasedLeadership #HighCapacityLeaders #SuccessWithoutBurnout #EndExhaustion #IdentityWork #AlignedLeadership #PeaceOverPressure #ObeyGod #SpiritualLeadership #ExhaustionToPeace #ExecutivePeace #LDSCreators #ObedientRebelWay

    Stop Earning Your Rest: The Silent Rule Making You Exhausted

    You’ve been told you have to earn your rest. That you can rest when things slow down, when everything’s done, when you’ve finally “earned it.” In this episode of The Obedient Rebel Podcast, we expose one of the most common silent rules high achievers obey without realizing it: “I must earn my right to rest.” We’ll walk through: How this rule shows up as “I’ll rest when things slow down” (and why they never do)  Why you feel guilty, anxious, or “behind” any time you try to slow down  How God actually designed rest into creation through Sabbath, sacred pauses, and nature’s own rhythms  Why rest isn’t the absence of work—it’s the presence of God  A simple Obedient Rebel practice to start breaking this rule gently, starting today  If you’ve ever felt irresponsible for slowing down, this episode will feel like someone finally turned the light on. 🎁 Free Resource Mentioned in This Episode: Grab The Obedient Rebel Way—a simple, powerful roadmap to live in clarity and alignment without running yourself ragged: 👉 https://theobedientrebel.com/way 🎧 Listen, share with a fellow high-capacity friend, and let this be your permission to rest in the way you were actually designed __ Key Takeaways: 00:10 – The Hidden Rule 01:10 – Collapse vs. True Rest 02:50 – How the Rule Shows Up 05:30 – The Emotional Cost 10:30 – God’s Design for Rest 17:55 – Rest as Presence 22:00 – How to Break the Rule __ Additional Resources: Learn more about Allyson’s work: Website: https://allysonchavez.com/ Reach out to me on social media:  🔹 Instagram:   / allysonchavez_    🔹 Facebook:   / allyson.a.chavez    🔹 LinkedIn:   / allysonchavez15  🎧 Follow the podcast on your favorite app, so you never miss an episode: https://link.chtbl.com/tpapodcast  ✨ I’d be so grateful and honored if you took the time to leave a rating and review: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast... #TheObedientRebel #ObedientRebelPodcast #SuccessWithoutStriving #RestWithoutGuilt #FaithAndWork #HighAchieverLife #GodAndGoals #SabbathRest #SacredPause #NervousSystemRest #PeaceOverPressure

    Your How-To for Breaking the Rules That Break You

    Most high achievers are exhausted—and it’s not because they’re weak. It’s because they’re obeying rules they never agreed to. In this episode, Allyson Chavez reveals the silent rules that shape your pace, pressure, peace, and identity—often without you realizing it. These inherited expectations feel responsible or holy… but they’re actually survival strategies dressed as obedience. You’ll learn the top four hidden rules: driving burnout, how to tell if a rule is not from God, and a powerful 30-second practice to return to peace and reconnect with divine direction. If life feels heavy even though you’re doing everything “right,” this conversation will show you why—and what you can do today to lighten the load. DM Allyson the word PEACE for a free next step. __ Key Takeaways: 00:00 — What silent rules are 05:47 — Silent Rule #1: “If I don’t hold everything together…” 11:12 — Silent Rule #2: “Peace comes after the to-do list.” 15:43 — Silent Rule #3: Self-pressure & self-judgment (“murdering yourself” line) 17:05 — Silent Rule #4: “My success is measured by what I can endure.” 20:48 — How to return to peace __ Additional Resources: Learn more about Allyson’s work: Website: https://allysonchavez.com/ Reach out to me on social media: 🔹 Instagram:   / allysonchavez_   🔹 Facebook:   / allyson.a.chavez   🔹 LinkedIn:   / allysonchavez15   🎧 Follow the podcast on your favorite app, so you never miss an episode: https://link.chtbl.com/tpapodcast   ✨ I’d be so grateful and honored if you took the time to leave a rating and review: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast... #SilentRules #FaithAndLeadership #ChristianMindset #StopTheHustle #PeaceFromGod #ChristianPodcast #WomenInLeadership #LeadershipBurnout #EmotionalHealingJourney #HealingWithGod #HolySpiritLed #ObedientRebelPodcast

    Finding peace in rhythm, not performance

    You’ve been told the key to success is balance—balance between work and home, ambition and faith, serving others and saving something for yourself. But balance feels impossible, doesn’t it? No matter how hard you try, one area always wins at the expense of another. In this episode of The Obedient Rebel Podcast, Allyson Chavez reveals why balance is a cultural myth that leaves women exhausted—and how God designed us to live in rhythm instead. Through her story and a practical tool called the Rhythm Reset, you’ll learn how to stop chasing balance and start aligning with the season God has you in. Because true peace doesn’t come from juggling everything perfectly—it comes from walking in His flow.

    Why peace—not perfection—is the proof of alignment

    You’ve followed the rules. You’ve checked the boxes. You’ve hustled and stayed faithful. And yet—peace still feels out of reach. You’re drained, wondering why doing everything ‘right’ still leaves you exhausted.  In this episode of The Obedient Rebel Podcast with Allyson Chavez, we’re rebelling against the lie that perfection and rule-keeping prove your worth—and obeying peace as the true proof of alignment with God. Allyson shares her own story of chasing perfection, the moment she realized peace isn’t weakness but alignment, and how Jesus’ words—‘My yoke is easy, and my burden is light’—transform the way we work and lead. You’ll walk away with a practical tool called The Peace Check that helps you shift from pressure to peace in minutes, and the reminder that you were never meant to carry this weight alone. If success has left you exhausted, it’s because you’ve been following the wrong version of it. That’s why I created The Obedient Rebel Way. It’s a free resource to help you trade the grind for God and take your peace back in just a few minutes. Think of it as your first step into a different kind of success—one that restores instead of drains. 👉 Get it at theobedientrebel.com/way or scan the QR code.” __ Key Takeaways: 00:00 — When “doing right” feels heavy 01:57 — God’s laws bring calm, not pressure 06:47 — Aligning with peace over perfection 12:48 — The Peace Check: pause, breathe, realign 21:07 — Rebel against pressure, rest in grace __ Additional Resources: Learn more about Allyson’s work: Website: https://allysonchavez.com/ Reach out to me on social media:  🔹 Instagram:   / allysonchavez_    🔹 Facebook:   / allyson.a.chavez    🔹 LinkedIn:   / allysonchavez15  #TheObedientRebel #FaithDrivenSuccess #ChristianLeader #SuccessWithoutBurnout #PerfectionismToPeace #KingdomBusiness #WomenOfFaithLeadership #ObedienceNotExhaustion #PeaceIsProof #FaithOverHustle
