The Return to Alignment | A Return Rhythm of Prayer, Posture & Presence—Holy Surrender Beyond Hustle

When high-achieving women lean on strategy over surrender, their peace and presence pay the price. In Episode 3, Sarah Doty shows you how to come home to true alignment—not by doing more, but by embracing holy surrender, practicing discernment, and cultivating everyday spiritual presence. You’ll discover the freedom of Psalm 23 as a roadmap to rest, peace, and abundance, plus three simple rhythms (Prayer, Posture, Presence) to break free from burnout and ride the current of the Holy Spirit.

What We Cover

• Why performance faith fails high-achieving Christian women and fuels burnout

• What true surrender feels like—leaning into God’s “current” instead of fighting for control

• The difference between discipline and discernment, and why surrender is your strongest strategy

• Unpacking Psalm 23 line by line as a blueprint for restoration, rest, and spiritual growth

• How to posture your heart for presence—being with God moment by moment, not merely planning for Him

• Three-step alignment rhythm:

  1. Prayer (raw honesty over polished scripts)

  2. Posture (soft shoulders, unclenched jaw, yielded spirit)

  3. Presence (noticing the Holy Spirit in the mundane)

Key Takeaways

1. Alignment > Achievement: You return to peace not through performance but through surrender.

2. Discernment over Discipline: Slowing down to ask “Is this mine to carry?” beats any color-coded routine.

3. Psalm 23 as Practical Guide: “He makes me lie down in green pastures…” is your invitation to rest.

4. Presence Is Alignment: Staying aware of God’s nearness—washing dishes, walking to work—keeps you in flow.

5. Rhythm, Not Routine: Prayer + Posture + Presence is a sustainable path out of spiritual static and into nervous-system health.
