Too Busy to Stop: An Honest Conversation About Intentional Rest
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
When did being busy become a personality? In this episode, we get honest about our own complicated relationships with rest — the guilt, the scrolling, the wellness trends we tried and quietly abandoned. We dig into what intentional rest actually means (no, it's not just sleep), explore the science behind why your nervous system is begging you to slow down, and share the small, unglamorous rituals that genuinely restore us. Consider this your permission slip to stop.
