Have you ever found yourself feeling guilty for resting? I certainly have. Last week, I took a break from publishing an episode, and it was a powerful reminder of why rest is essential. Join me as I share my experiences with the relentless drive for perfection and the transformative realization that sometimes the bravest thing we can do is listen to our need for rest. In this episode, we explore the importance of taking a break and listening to our need for rest.


 Listen as I talk about:

- The importance of rest and self-care.

- Acknowledging restlessness in high achievers.

- Reconnecting with what makes you happy: the power of fun

- Simple mindfulness exercise to help you recognise the need for a pause and what you can do about it.


Make sure to bring your paper and pen because this episode is full of actionable strategies!
