Overbooked & Overwhelmed: A Better Way Forward For Busy Moms | Tara Sun (Bonus Episode)

Minimalist Moms Podcast | All Things Minimalism, Intentionality & Simple Living

For those that are new around here, I release bonus episodes that serve a niche part of my audience, I have listeners of all faith backgrounds that listen to the podcast. This episode is coming from a christian perspective so if that’s something that doesn’t fit what you’re looking for, check out the other episode that dropped this week or join me back here next Tuesday for a conversation that you don’t want to miss!

-------------------------------------------------------------

Diane sits down with author Tara Sun to discuss her new book, Overbooked and Overwhelmed. Tara shares her personal breaking point—and how she restructured her life to prioritize rest, spiritual growth, and meaningful connection over hustle and overcommitment. Diane also opens up about her own journey toward letting go, including her decision to end the Clear Intentions podcast. Together, they explore the difference between an abundant life and an overcommitted one, the role of spiritual formation, and how to create space for God in a distracted world.

You’ll hear:

• Practical ways to reduce overwhelm
• How small, consistent moments with God can transform your day
• Honest reflections on burnout, motherhood, and faith
