In this episode, I’m sharing about my experience serving as a Young Women's President in my church while navigating motherhood and my own personal growth. I talk honestly about the tension of wanting to serve well while also honoring my real-life capacity. Stepping back from my calling wasn’t about quitting, it was about recognizing my limits, creating space for self-care, and leaning into my next season, including pursuing life coaching more intentionally. We can love serving others and still choose what’s sustainable. Taking care of yourself isn’t selfish, it allows you to show up more grounded, present, and aligned in every area of your life.Brynne’s Social:Facebook: @Brynne Erickson - my public pagehttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61573316550355Instagram: @brynne_ericksonhttps://www.instagram.com/brynne_erickson/Threads: @brynne_ericksonhttps://www.threads.com/@brynne_erickson?igshid=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==TakeawaysI genuinely loved doing my calling.It was a lot to make it happen.I honored my impressions and my thoughts.I felt resistance to that calling.My capacity to create has enlarged.Taking care of ourselves enlarges our capacity.I find joy in taking care of others.Being a disciple is serving others.Taking care of myself starts it all.What's one small thing to take care of yourself?Chapters00:00 Navigating Leadership and Motherhood02:55 Honoring Personal Capacity and Commitments05:49 The Joy of Serving OthersKeywordsleadership, motherhood, personal capacity, service, life coaching, self-care, community, church, support, balance
