160. How to Be Stronger than Stress with Barb Roose

It’s our guest episode for the month, and you are going to be so glad you are tuning in. Joining me on the podcast today is speaker and author, Barb Roose. Barb is passionate about teaching women to live beautifully strong and courageous so that they experience God’s great adventure of faith and purpose for their lives. She’s the proud empty-nest mom of three adult kids and whenever possible, Barb prefers to eat dessert first. She tells us why! We discuss everything from living overwhelmed to spending time with God, to embracing life right now. We had a powerful conversation that spoke to me, and I believe it will speak to you too! Because you and I experience stress in this life, no matter what season we’re in, we need this kind of encouragement. Barb helps us live the abundant lives Jesus came to give us!

Barb Roose helps us learn how to be stronger than stress.

She helps us feel like we aren’t alone in this life of stress and overwhelm, and her enthusiasm is contagious. She helps us do something about the stress (before we chuck a bunch of dinnerware through the window like she did!). Barb candidly shares about the time she did just that! She also helps us see how following spiritual practices can help us keep our focus on Jesus and what’s truly important.

Also, we will be resuming our Right Now Matters Bible Study group sessions in the fall. The Right Now Matters Bible Study: A 28-Day Guided Adventure to Living as a Right-Now Woman can be done on your own or in a group. I have to say it’s much more fun walking through it with other women. I host these both online and in person. If you’d like to be notified of the next group sessions, find the link in the show notes to join the waitlist. They will likely begin next month.

You can be stronger than stress, my friend!

God has good plans for your life, and living stressed and overwhelmed isn’t in those plans.

Friend, I pray this episode encourages you and empowers you to be stronger than any stress in your life. Barb Roose and I are cheering you on today! God bless you!
