Episode Synopsis

Are you exhausted from doing everything for everyone — but still feeling unfulfilled? In this episode of Quieting the Inner Critic, we unpack the silent struggle of overgiving, people-pleasing, and the resentment that creeps in when you never slow down. If you’ve ever felt guilty for saying “no,” or like setting boundaries makes you selfish, this conversation is your turning point.
You’ll discover what overgiving is really costing you, why resentment is a signal (not a shame), and how to set micro-boundaries that protect your peace — without feeling like you’re letting anyone down.
Through biblical wisdom and practical tools, you’ll learn how to serve from overflow, not exhaustion.
✨ In this episode you’ll learn:


How overgiving leads to burnout and hidden resentment


Why guilt isn’t truth — and how to reframe it with grace


What “micro-boundaries” look like in real life (simple, sustainable shifts)


How to love others without losing yourself


A powerful Scripture to reset your mindset about rest and worth


📖 Key Verse: Matthew 11:28 — “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.”
