The Rest of Us with Dana Tenille Weekes
The Rest of Us podcast explores rest as self-liberation for advocates and professionals who are losing themselves to the demands of work, loved ones, friends, strangers, and this dizzying world. The Rest of Us cultivates a community through honest reflections, conversations, and laughter for people willing to embrace rest differently.

Ep 2: The Rest Continuum - Exploring Three Forms of Rest (Part 1 of 3)
In this episode of the Rest of Us podcast, host Dana Tenille Weekes kicks off a three-part series on the rest continuum, focusing on identifying personal rest patterns and activities. Listeners are guided through a reflection exercise to list their recent rest activities or desired forms of rest and categorize them into 'doing nothing,' 'restoring,' and 'liberating.' With an emphasis on self-acceptance and agency, the episode encourages listeners to observe themes and patterns in their rest habits without judgment. Dana also invites the community to engage with further reflections and resources on Instagram.
