What if rest isn’t the opposite of ambition—but the fuel for it? In this powerful conversation, I’m joined by Radical Joy Coach, Jordan Maney to talk about redefining rest, not as a luxury, but as a vital return of your energy, attention, and time. We explore what rest really looks like (hint: it’s not just naps), how to find your personal rhythm, and why rest can feel so scary for driven women. If you’ve ever said “I don’t have time to rest,” this one’s for you. Jordan shares simple, realistic ways to infuse rest into your routine—without losing momentum on your goals. Listen in to hear a new definition of rest, permission to ditch the all-or-nothing mindset and creative, doable rest ideas that fit into even the busiest day. You don’t need a full sabbatical to feel restored—you just need five minutes and a little intention.
