When was the last time you truly rested?What happens when you literally can’t do it all anymore? For Jess, it took a broken foot, six weeks off her feet, and a complete pause in her routines to realize how deeply she’d tied her worth to her productivity.In this episode, we explore the emotional reality of “rest guilt” — the belief that you’re only valuable when you’re doing, helping, performing, achieving, or holding everything together. Jess opens up about the meltdown that made her ask, “Who am I if I’m not doing all the things?” and how she's redefining worth, presence, and capacity.We talk about:• Feeling useless or unworthy when you can’t be productive• How to accept help (even when it feels uncomfortable)• Why women often tie value to caretaking, tasks, and saying yes• How Jess learned to rest without shame• The surprising way slowing down made her more productive• Redefining movement, connection, and capacityIf you’re exhausted, overwhelmed, or secretly afraid of slowing down, this episode will help you rethink your relationship with rest — and give yourself permission to be human.🎧 Listen if you’re craving:Permission to restFreedom from productivity pressureEmotional resilience and self-compassion YouTube video:
