Could you do 1% less everyday to create lasting change? In this episode, rest coach and author, Octavia Raheem discusses how to start building a rest practice that actually works for you. She breaks down the how to recognize when you’re truly tired (and not just pushing through) and gets real about the unique exhaustion Black women face, especially with all the systemic barriers stacked against us. And she dives into the power of surrendering—letting go of the need to do it all—and why rest isn’t just a nice-to-have, but a radical act of self-care. If you’ve been feeling burnt out, this episode is for you.
