In this raw and honest episode, Christine Jewell tackles the dangerous trap of letting your greatest gifts become your greatest liabilities. Speaking from personal experience of catching herself in the martyrdom cycle and the overthinking spiral, Christine reveals why our God-given gifts can get hijacked—it's separation from partnership with the Holy Spirit. Drawing from recent conversations with clients who were burnt out from pouring into everyone else while neglecting themselves, Christine unpacks the subtle shift that transforms multiplication gifts into destructive patterns and provides a clear roadmap back to spirit-led stewardship. If you're exhausted from carrying what's not yours to carry or if you're spinning in your head instead of operating from your heart, this episode will help you recognize when your gifts are in overdrive and channel them back to their divine purpose.

This Episode Is for You If:

• You feel like you're constantly pouring into everyone else while neglecting your own physical and spiritual health
• The leadership responsibilities you once thrived in now feel overwhelming and burdensome
• You're carrying guilt and pressure that everything rises or falls on your shoulders alone
• You're working from a place of fear instead of faith, spinning in analysis paralysis
• You suspect your generous heart has become a trap where people just take from you
• You're ready to stop making God's gifts feel like personal burdens you have to manage alone
• You need to learn how to steward your gifts from overflow instead of empty

NOTABLE QUOTES

"Our greatest gifts are also our greatest liabilities. The gifts that God put in me, in you are also the areas that we will be most attacked."

"When we are unable to access the heart of situations, the heart of the people, when we can't connect with human to human, heart to heart, we lose that ability because we're locked up spinning in our head."

"Be careful that we don't identify as, I'm always gotta be pouring into everyone else. And if everybody else has a need and I'm not just jumping on it, I'm not their savior and their fixer and the rescuer, then somehow I'm doing something wrong."

"The Holy Spirit shared with me was, I created you to actually be a lighthouse. It's strong, it's steady, it's constant. Whether it's a beautiful day, a stormy day, it shines because it's radiating light out."

"True generosity must be paired with wisdom, stewardship, discernment, and submission."

"We gotta make the 18 inch journey from our head to our heart, and this requires that we pump the brakes, that we recognize where we're at."
