Hustle Culture Recovery: A Live As If Podcast

When to Rest and Reflect as a Real Estate Investor with Tilisa Stubbs

Shalece Daniels

What if rest was the secret to scaling your business? In this conversation with Tilisa Stubbs, I, Shalece Daniels, share how embracing radical rest and intentional practices took my real estate business to seven figures while allowing me to create a life of freedom and ease. From Detroit to Costa Rica, I’ve discovered that rest isn’t a luxury—it’s a powerful tool for creativity, clarity, and growth.

Here’s what Tilisa and I discuss:

  • Why rest isn’t just about sleep or relaxation—it’s about restoring your energy and fueling innovation.
  • How somatic healing practices, like dancing and movement, reconnect us with our bodies and help release stored energy.
  • The neuroscience of travel and how engaging in new experiences builds creative "neural highways" that drive business success.
  • Practical ways to rest at home, even when life feels overwhelming—using techniques like the Pomodoro method, curated playlists, and micro-moments of joy.
  • Why I designed my inaugural retreat in Costa Rica specifically for Black women, and how creating spaces for rest and vulnerability can transform lives and businesses.

This episode is for entrepreneurs and real estate CEOs who are ready to leave hustle culture behind and embrace rest as a strategy for success. Whether you’re building systems to step away from your business or exploring new ways to restore your energy, rest can become your greatest asset.
