Episode Synopsis

In this episode, I’m starting the conversation so many of us are scared to have; the one about why slowing down feels like a threat instead of a gift. If you’ve ever tried to rest and found yourself fidgeting, doom-scrolling, or counting down the minutes with guilt in your gut, please know you’re NOT broken! You’ve been bracing...This isn't just about rest. It's about the nervous system patterns, productivity trauma, and internalized pressure we carry, it's the old stories that tell us rest has to be earned, or justified in some way. That stillness is "lazy" or that slowing down means you will fall behind.But here’s what I know - most of us weren’t taught how to receive rest. We were taught how to outperform the rest.In this episode, I talk about:>> Why rest can feel so damn unsafe>> How to recognize the “guilty glitch” that keeps you running on fumes>> Why your leadership depends on your ability to slow down and stay present>> What real, resourced rest looks like (hint: it's not just spa days and white space)>> The truth about rest as receptivity, and how that changes everythingThis isn’t just a conversation. It’s a reclamation. Letting rest land is letting yourself be LOVED again. Listen now and let this be your permission slip to stop hustling for healing and start BEING yourself again.Instagram: ⁠⁠@xoheartlab⁠⁠TikTok: ⁠⁠@xoheartlab⁠⁠Facebook: ⁠⁠Jeska Lawrence⁠⁠Email: [email protected]⁠YouTube: ⁠⁠Unmask ME™️⁠
