Inviting God Into Our Stress, Overwhelm, & Anxiety

Papers, group projects, work shifts, friendships, family drama, wondering what you’re doing with your life — college can feel like a nonstop juggling act. And somewhere between the late nights, coffee runs, and endless to-do lists, stress, overwhelm, and anxiety sneak in and take over.

In this episode of 2nd Helpings, Becca and Jayden talk honestly about the seasons when everything feels like “too much,” and how to keep from falling apart when your brain (and planner) are maxed out.

We’ll chat about:

• Small ways to slow down when your schedule is out of control
• What it really means to give your worries to God (and not take them right back)
• Practical ways to reset when you’re running on empty

📝 Reflection Prompt:
Where is stress showing up in your life right now — and what’s one thing you could release this week?

🎯 Challenge of the Week:
Pause throughout your day and ask, “God, where am I at right now?” Pay attention to your thoughts, emotions, and body. Notice what spikes your stress or throws you off, and invite God to show you the root — whether it’s something to lean into or something to let go.
