08.How to Deny Yourself and Follow Jesus (When It Feels Hard)

Welcome back to The Rested Woman Podcast! I’m so glad you’re here. Today, we’re sitting with something real… something many of us feel but don’t always know how to name: what it means to deny yourself in your walk with Jesus. Because if you’re honest, you love God… you want to follow Him… but this process of letting go of old ways, old habits, and old versions of yourself can feel harder than you expected. This conversation is for the woman who is trying. The one who is learning to pause instead of react. The one who is choosing discipline over comfort. The one who feels the tension between who she used to be and who God is calling her to become. We’re talking about what this looks like in real life, not just spiritually, but emotionally and mentally too. Why your mind pulls you back to what’s familiar. Why obedience can feel uncomfortable. And how to stay anchored in truth when your feelings are pulling you in a different direction. We’ll also look at how even Jesus experienced temptation and tension and what we can learn from the way He responded. If you’ve been feeling that internal pull… the struggle… that daily choosing, this episode is for you. And if you’re in a place where you know you don’t want to navigate this alone, I want to gently invite you into a deeper level of support. I offer one-on-one sessions where we walk through this together, helping you understand what’s coming up for you, break patterns, and build rhythms that support your growth both spiritually and emotionally. If this resonates, you can schedule a discovery call HERE. It’s a space for us to connect, talk through where you are, and see how I can support you in this season. SCHEDULE HERE
