Frazzled Female
(fraz-eld-fee-mal) n 1: a woman of the twenty-first century who is stressed, frayed, challenged, frenetic;
2:YOU?

I remember clearly when I first accepted the fact that I had joined the ranks of women who classified themselves as “frazzled.” Actually they didn’t call it that, but they wore the look, walked the walk, and talked the talk. I saw no one sporting frazzled tees or wearing frazzled designer jeans, but yet most women I knew had the invisible insignia FRAZZLED embossed on their foreheads. You DO know what I mean, don’t you? Here’s what frazzled looks like, sounds like, and walks like.

The Look
• A “wanna be” fresh radiant face that can’t quite make it
• A not-so-put-together outfit that used to be in style
• Signs of wear and tear on a body that was at one time of life in pretty good shape
• Traces of twitching caused by an overloaded central nervous system

The Sound
• Less than positive words reflecting a “what the heck” attitude
• Strange noises caused by gastric juices jumping around in the stomach area
• A tone of voice that more often reflects misery, disgust, and “I’ve had all I can take” instead of joy

The Walk
• A heavy gait giving one the appearance of carrying an oversized dirty laundry bag as opposed to a light,
springy step
• A body that doesn’t move like it used to due to too many days of “I don’t have time to exercise”
• Hunched shoulders from carrying too many burdens for too many people

Whether married or used to be married, single, with kids or without, working on the home front or out in the work world (or both), you may qualify for membership in the Frazzled Female Club! The frazzled female ministry is an outreach to all females who long for more peace and sanity in daily living.
Women gathering for luncheons, seminars, or weekend retreats all share the same goal: seeking a life that’s less stressful and more fulfilling every day, not just occasionally. And it’s my joy to share with women from all walks of life how to begin and then continue to live a victorious life—one that is not free from stress but one that is lived with confidence, power, and peace.
