Episode #109 – Tired of being overly busy? Discover the Busyness Barriers Keeping You from Finding Balance with Sandy Cooper
I’m thrilled to replay a two-part series featuring Sandy Cooper, the wonderful host of “The Balanced Momcast” (which I love!). Sandy is also the author of three books, including Finding Your Balance, a Bible study that tackles busyness and other challenges we face as women of God. Her humor, authenticity, and wisdom on the causes, effects, and remedies for busyness are truly exceptional. Our chat was so insightful, I had to split it into two, so be sure to catch Part 2 in episode #110!
In this episode, we discuss the following insights about busyness:
- Physical, spiritual, and emotional effects of being too busy
- When busyness turns into “hurry” – and why that’s not good
- The first two (of 4) types of “busy people” we might be
“When busyness becomes hurry, it affects our heart.”
“When I’m living such a back to back busy lifestyle, even if I have an hour and a half to spend with God, I don’t know how to sit still.”
“Loving people is really difficult when we’re hurried and rushed.”
“Busyness actually makes us less productive and less creative.”
Head over to Sandy Cooper’s website and take her busyness Quiz entitled, “What’s Your Busyness Personality?” – it’s free and quite insightful!
