Welcome to the Radiant in Real Life Podcast, where we dive into topics related to life, leadership, and the pursuit of Jesus.
-
In Episode 65, we talked about:
How loneliness often shows up in leadership, even when you're surrounded by people.
The internal pressure to stay strong, even when you're struggling.
The emotional cost of being “the one everyone looks to” and why that can feel so isolating.
Power dynamics that make it difficult to be fully known as a leader.
The tendency to withhold vulnerability out of fear or shame.
A reminder that even Jesus experienced loneliness—and what that means for us.
The importance of trusted community, spiritual direction, and therapy to walk through seasons of loneliness.
A simple but powerful practice: asking “Where is Jesus in the room?” when you feel alone.

Burnout and Boundaries
Welcome to the Radiant in Real Life Podcast, where we dive into topics related to life, leadership, and the pursuit of Jesus.
-
In Episode 64, we talked about:
What burnout actually is—and how it’s more than just being tired.
Beth’s personal experience with leadership burnout and how it affected her body, brain, and sense of purpose.
Why burnout is often the result of too many demands and not enough resources—and how that shows up in life and work.
A practical +/– calendar audit to help you assess what drains you and what restores you.
The belief that “if you see a need, you’re responsible” and why that mindset leads to exhaustion.
How boundaries are not just about saying “no,” but about creating space for what God has called you to do.
Encouragement for those in the “messy middle” who feel like stepping away from their calling is the only way out.
A reminder that healing is possible, and you don’t have to be all things to all people.

Ep 63 - Tired but Called
Welcome to the Radiant in Real Life Podcast, where we dive into topics related to life, leadership, and the pursuit of Jesus.
-
In Episode 63, we talked about:
The kickoff to our new series: Tired But Called—a conversation for anyone feeling both worn out and deeply purpose-driven.
What it actually means to have a “calling”—and why even those outside the faith use that word to describe meaningful, soul-level work.
The reminder that God doesn’t love us equally… He loves us uniquely—and calls us into work that fits like a glove.
How identity and calling go hand in hand: You’re a daughter before you’re a doer, but you were still made to do good work.
The critical difference between performing for God vs. partnering with Him—and how calling flows from intimacy, not striving.
The early signs of burnout and how that tension can trigger a full-blown identity crisis if not addressed.
Three key reflection questions to help listeners pause, evaluate, and walk out their calling in a healthier way:
Where have you been carrying your calling like a burden?
What would change if you led from rest instead of running on empty?
What would change in the people around you if you showed up from a place of fullness?
