178: Presence Over Performance & Peace Over Pressure

from Truth Applied · host Rebekah Anne Perkins

Join the Summer Book Club / The Well Rebekah's WebsiteAfter more than five years and 176 podcast episodes, I’m taking a long break from the podcast for the summer.In this deeply personal episode, I share why I’ve grown weary of constant self-optimization, endless productivity, and the pressure to always be improving, building and producing. I've seen it, the exhaustion so many modern women feel, the spiritual cost of hurry, and why I believe many of us have forgotten how to simply be human and live faithful lives, walking with Jesus.This episode is about:·       presence over performance·       beauty over hurry·       rootedness over striving·       the limits of self-improvement cultureI also share the summer vision behind The Well and why I believe slower, more thoughtful, reading-based discipleship and community matters so much right now.If your soul has been tired…if you’ve been craving depth, peace, beauty, and a more grounded way of living… this episode is for you.
