This week, your business besties share an uplifting and candid episode which dives into why so many high-achieving women find it difficult to rest and what it really takes to prioritise well-being without guilt. Through personal stories that range from dancing at garage brunches to healing through nature, journaling, and creative expression, the conversation unpacks the emotional toll of burnout and the cultural conditioning that equates self-worth with constant productivity. The group explores how rest can be a form of mindfulness, connection, and joy rather than a reward for overwork.Listeners will discover practical ways to identify burnout, integrate restful rituals into daily life, and shift their mindset around rest and self-care. Whether you are a busy professional, entrepreneur, parent, or all of the above, this episode offers powerful insights to help you slow down, recharge, and reconnect with what matters most.
