01.25 – The reason why I do this episode

02.02 – As a coach, I saw a consistent pattern in the issues my clients presented to me. Some of these issues are:

• Feeling overwhelmed and not knowing where to start or what to do to get “back on track” 

• Getting to the point of burnout and not knowing how to recover so that things don’t go down that road again

• Being paralyzed by anxious thoughts in a valley season

03.50 – The definition of “Overwhelm” according to the Oxford dictionary:

• to give too much of a thing to someone; to inundate.

04.08 – The number one thing you should stop doing so you do not feel overwhelmed and anxious is OVERCONSUMPTION

• When you consume, you are trying to meet a need. Whatever the need is, it helps you to feel some sense of safety.

05.39 – What it looks like when overconsumption is normalized

• you pay more attention to the symptoms

• there isn’t much opportunity to stop and take inventory of the things that need to be more consistently accounted for

08.28 – The issue we have as a culture – we have a hard time dealing with our stuff

09.38 – My challenge for you:

1. What one area of your life where you are trying to control it by either taking in too much or not taking in enough of something beneficial to your well-being?

2. What could you do to be more intentional? 

3. What could you ask the Lord so that he would provide you with the guidance and strength to stop consuming the wrong things and start consuming things that would bring you closer to Him? 

Key Takeaway:

• Avoiding overconsumption requires self-discipline and focus on the right thing.
