In today’s episode, we’re talking about something many women desperately need but rarely feel allowed to do… rest

After hearing another Mother’s Day message about “being strong,” I started thinking:
Why don’t we talk about rest too?

Using the story of Mary and Martha in The Bible Luke 10:38–42, I break down how many high-functioning women end up stuck in survival mode, constantly carrying the weight of everyone and everything.

In this episode, I walk you through my REST framework to help you prevent burnout, regulate your nervous system, and stop running on empty.
