Description

You were made to create. You were also made to rest. Most advice in the Christian creative space treats those like opposites. They're not.

Create from Rest is a weekly podcast for high-capacity Christian creative women who want to steward their calling with both conviction and strategy. Every episode: one clear topic, theological grounding, a practical framework, and a next step that won't overwhelm you.

Hosted by Rachel Fahrenbach, self-published author building a six-figure author brand without agents, proposals, or permission from the industry.

New episodes every Wednesday.
